Nebraska's regular-season opener against Eastern Illinois on Saturday, Nov. 11, will be a 7:30 p.m. tip, the Huskers announced Monday. The game time was contingent on the start time of the Nebraska at Minnesota football game that same day. It was announced earlier in the day that game will kick off at 11 a.m in Minneapolis.

 

The basketball game will be streamed on BTN Plus.

 

The men's game is part of a doubleheader at Pinnacle Bank Arena. The Husker women will open their regular season against SIU-Edwardsville at 3 p.m. The arena will be cleared between games.

***Miles said the reason they scheduled this exhibition game vs. Northwood was because of their head coach, Jeff Rekeweg, who was a three-year captain for Nebraska in the late-1980s. “Hopefully we can celebrate him by just kicking the crap out of him,” Miles joked.

 

***Miles said it will depend on the night as to how much they will experiment with different lineups early on this season. He said there are still groups that aren’t really clicking together, which impacts how they execute game plans at times.

 

***Miles said Isaac Copeland still gets a little sore with his back, but not nearly as bad as Gill has been with his knee and now groin. Miles said Gill has been held out the past 4-5 days to allow his knee to heal.

 

***Miles said the two scrimmages before the year have really helped prepare the team for the start of the season. Playing live game situations against high-major opponents gave the team a great taste of what to expect this year.

 

***Miles said he’s very excited to unveil this team to the fans for a real game in Lincoln. He said the staff has put a lot of work into assembling this roster, and they know what they’re all capable of. “I’m really looking forward to making Pinnacle Banke Arena a lot of fun.”
