    New CFB Thanksgiving week tradition ....

    The Huskers’ season finale against rival Iowa will begin at 11 a.m. and be televised by ABC. That game’s set for Nov. 25, the day after Thanksgiving

    (The two teams will play the Friday after Thanksgiving in 2012, as well).


    It is becoming clearly evident that these two two teams squaring off on Thanksgiving weekend will likely become a standing tradition.........and will quickly become one of the best rivalries in all of CFB.

    Has potential but until we get a few great games it's tough to call it a Rivalry. Right now it's just a game they plan to play on the same date each year.

    It will go a long way if the game this year means something. I'm not sure how likely that is.

    I used to really enjoy watching Nebraska/Colorado the day after thanksgiving, but Colorado has been horrible recently. Hopefully we can get an entertaining game between these 2 for years to come.

    Used to look forward to the Nebraska/Oklahoma game on Thanksgiving weekend, including the "game of the century".

    Nebraska and Iowa are scheduled to play the Day after Thanksgiving until 2104. That is as far as the Big 10+2 schedule goes. This year, the game is in Lincoln. I think that the game has the potential to become a very good rivalry, but it will take time. Rivalries are NOT born overnight. It certainly will be a welcome addition to the Thanksgiving Weekend games, which will now feature Michigan-What is Left of Ohio State, Penn State-Wisconsin, Texas-Texas A&M, Alabama-Auburn, and Notre Dame-Stanford/USC (depending on who'se home game it is. Notre Dame alternates with Stanford and USC).
