Nebraska’s 2014 Football Schedule Released: Look Who’s Missing
We're still three months away from the 2013 Big Ten football season, but we already know the 2014 schedule, which was released Thursday.
The 2014 schedule will consist of eight games for each of the league's now 14 teams, and will feature the debut of the East-West divisional alignment.
For Nebraska, 2014 is as much about who's not on the schedule as it is who's on it. No regular season games with either Ohio State or Michigan.
The Huskers kick off play in the West Division along with Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Northwestern, Purdue and Wisconsin. The East Division will consist of Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State and Rutgers.
The Huskers’ Big Ten road schedule in 2014 includes games at West Division foes Northwestern (Oct. 18), Wisconsin (Nov. 15) and Iowa (Friday, Nov. 28). NU will play its cross-division road game in 2014 at Michigan State, traveling to East Lansing on Oct. 4.
