While conference realignment has changed or eliminated multiple conference rivalries, there are still several non-conference games of note in 2024. Ian Casselberry of Y! Sports reviewed the top ten non-conference games of the season, and Nebraska made the list.
The Huskers’ September 7 game against the Colorado Buffaloes was named one of the ten best non-conference games of the 2024 season. This will be the 73rd meeting between the two teams, with Colorado entering Memorial Stadium on a three-game win streak.
Last season, Nebraska lost at Colorado 36-14 in the second game of the season. Nebraska leads the series all-time with a record of 49-21-2.
The Cornhuskers also hold the series record for the longest win streak, with 18 straight wins from 1968 to 1985. They also have the largest victory, at 59-0 in 1981.
Nebraska and Colorado will meet again on September 7 in Lincoln, Nebraska. The game will kick off at 6:30 p.m. CT and can be seen on NBC.
