“We hope our fans will enjoy a more traditional early afternoon game time for our Big 12 conference opener against Iowa State,” Nebraska Athletic Director Steve Pederson said. “The Husker Nation Pavilion will open at 10 a.m., giving fans a chance to enjoy that area before the game. For our fans not attending the game, our Husker Sports Network team will provide outstanding coverage of the contest as it does every week throughout the season. Our radio network partner has made exciting changes to its format and broadcast lineup, and I know Husker fans will enjoy listening to the game.”

Game times and television coverage for Nebraska’s remaining games will be announced six to 12 days in advance.
