It all starts as usual at 7am PST just back from the Peristyle. Fans are encouraged to appear in the frequent televised crowd shots both before and after the game.
Kickoff will not be untill 5:00pm PST. The game will be shown nationally on ABC.
Nebraska, riding a 5-game winning streak, features a balanced offense behind QB Zac Taylor and IB Marlon Lucky and a defense led by pre-season All-American DE Adam Carriker that returned many of the starters from a unit that led the nation in sacks and tackles for a loss in 2005. The Cornhuskers, like USC, are averaging more than 50 points and 450 yards of total offense.
Looks like the state of Nebraska has already weighed in on the ESPN poll (80% to 20% in Big Red’s favor at the time of writing this).
