huskerhaze Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Has anyone heard any rumors about who our "big" non-conference opponent might be in '08 Quote Link to comment
bluiz18 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 We play USC at Memorial Stadium....other than that i dont know! Quote Link to comment
huskerhaze Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 I was wondering about '08 (not '07). Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Has anyone heard any rumors about who our "big" non-conference opponent might be in '08 At one point I heard they were trying for Virginia Tech or Florida St., if I remember correctly. Quote Link to comment
pigsonthewing Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 imagine what it would be like if we could get a florida team to come up here in november wouldnt that be sweet... Quote Link to comment
Husker IN Hawaii Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 OMG!!! If we could get a Florida team to come to Tom Osborn field I think I would have died and gone to heaven. I don't know if they would ever accept but it would be awsome. You know a good question would be when was the last time a Florida team played in Memorial Stadium? Anyone? Quote Link to comment

FSU is the last "BIG" Florida team to play in Lincoln. Unless you are counting Central Florida  I think Quote Link to comment
drewalt Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I believe you're right, FSU, I'm just not sure when. Quote Link to comment
chad1971 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I believe you're right, FSU, I'm just not sure when. 1985 They beat us 18 - 15 I'm 99% sure of the year. Quote Link to comment

Nebraska did lose to Florida State at home 17-13 in 1985. Then the next year Nebraska beat Florida State 34-17 at home. Bowden was still getting his program off the ground and was willing to come into Lincoln two years consecutive for the exposure. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I've been unable to find anything beyond the 2007 season. It seems Stevie P will scramble at the last minute again to fill the schedule. Quote Link to comment
huskerhaze Posted May 4, 2006 Author Share Posted May 4, 2006 How about a strong SEC team like Georgia or LSU??? Â A home and away series would be pretty cool w/ a team like Greorgia!!! Quote Link to comment
BigRedJake Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I wouldn't mind an away game in Florida. I'm moving there here in a couple weeks and wouldn't mind at all being able to go to a game. Quote Link to comment
Redman Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I believe you're right, FSU, I'm just not sure when. 1985 They beat us 18 - 15 I'm 99% sure of the year. It was in 1985. NU lost 13-17. I was at that game. At least NU beat them 34-17 the following year. Quote Link to comment
dbetz23 Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 It is going to be hard to find a top BCS team willing to play a home and away seires. Money talks though. Quote Link to comment
