Does Nebraska play today? Cornhuskers football looks to bounce back from Michigan loss image

That sets Nebraska up to look for a bounceback in the weeks ahead.

But sometimes, the schedule doesn't break quite right to allow for that.

Instead, the Cornhuskers will have to wait a week before they can redeem themselves.
