Yes we do but even cooler would be awsome for 1 night game.

 
Games competing with Wisconsin:

Arkansas At Texas A&M

Cincinatti At Virginia Tech

Ohio State At Michigan State

Texas At Oklahoma State

Games competing with Michigan:

Florida At Georgia

Michigan State At Wisconsin

Notre Dame At Oklahoma

TCU At Oklahoma State

Texas A&M At Auburn

There really arnt any huge SEC games going on either date, and not much anyways, but this is what i think we will be competing with, the ones in blue are the ones i feel would be the option if not us.

 
Gameday won't come to Lincoln. They did the UW/NU game last season and Im sure they regret it considering the outcome. Only way they would come for MU is if both teams are in top 10 and undefeated.

The Wisconsin game is the day before birthday. Hopefully we win and I don't remember a thing on my birthday. Of course, we could lose and I still might not remember a thing. One thing to take away from this is that I probably won't remember a thing on my birthday. :wasted
