The Sept. 12 game against Bowling Green will kickoff at 6 p.m. and be shown on FS1, while the Sept. 19 game against North Dakota will be telecast on BTN and kickoff at 6:15 p.m.
Finally, Nebraska’s Heroes Game matchup on Black Friday at Iowa will kickoff at 11 a.m. and be shown on CBS. The Oct. 3 game against Maryland will kickoff no later than 4 p.m., as it is the Huskers’ homecoming game.
