Huskers' first Big Ten opponent

Submitted by 909Dewey on

Who should Nebraska play in their inaugural Big Ten game?  Iowa makes the most sense to build the rivalry.  Obviously our Wolverines could build off a few bowl games against them.  (Tyler Ecker and I would prefer to build off the 1987 Fiesta Bowl)  I think it should be Penn State - the former new addition welcomes the current new addition.

 

Anyway a big welcome to the Huskers.  Though they will always be the bugeaters to me.

It's gonna be a hell of a thing when the Buckeyes invade LIncoln for the first time.  I can't even imagine how that clash of the titan-fanbases will work out.

p.s. It makes me sad that I can only +1 you for your comment

Probably an easy western division team like the Gophers!  Though I could see IA, WI and perhaps IL being big rivals in the same division.  Then the fun cross division games between NU vs UM, OSU and PSU...though each may only play home and away series with NU every 3 years.  But at least THE GAME will occur every season between UM and OSU, and we get to keep games against PSU and lil brother! Beat up on IN and Purdue every year.
