The sparks will fly as the Nebraska Cornhuskers and Colorado Buffaloes lock horns in a fierce rivalry showdown on a late-summer, prime-time Saturday in Lincoln
Coach Deion “Prime Time” Sanders has turned the spotlight on the Buffaloes, a team that was down in the dumps with a 1-11 record before his arrival. On the other sideline, coach Matt Rhule is trying to breathe new life into a Nebraska squad that hasn’t seen a bowl game since 2016. The winner of Saturday’s clash takes a big step toward grabbing national attention.
Last season’s game in Boulder was a real crowd-pleaser, drawing 8.73 million viewers—the 14th most-watched college football game of the year. Expect a similar audience to tune in for this year’s high-stakes rematch.
Nebraska came out guns blazing in their season opener, crushing Texas El-Paso 40-7. Meanwhile, Colorado edged out North Dakota State, 31-26, in a nail-biter against the FCS juggernaut. The Buffaloes will likely prove to be a tougher nut to crack when they roll into Memorial Stadium this Saturday night.
Known for their swagger and star power, the Buffs have attracted big names like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Lil Wayne, Michael Irvin, and Terrell Owens to their games. With Coach Prime at the helm, the Buffs are ready to put on another show under the bright lights.
