Huskers to Play Illinois in Ireland in ... 2022?

[Cdog923]

Speculation is there is a lot of shuffling of the conference schedules going on so everything will get announced all at once, including this trip being cancelled.

Other things said to be in the works: moving Nebraska-Iowa back to Black Friday and flipping where Nebraska plays Wisconsin and Purdue.

I'm sorry, what is this nonsense doing in the "Bears fan vs. Packers fans Megathread"?

@Mavric any ulterior motives for the shuffle beyond our desire to get Iowa on Black Friday again? Also, any rumors on opponent swaps or just rearranging dates?

Mainly this would be the third straight year at Purdue and would have been the third straight home game with Wisconsin if the game this year wouldn't have gotten cancelled.  Trying to avoid that.  Plus it would be nicer to split up Iowa and Wisconsin so they weren't both on the road every other year.

I haven't seen anything about changing who we play.  Just when and where.

Thank you! Great insights

Wisconsin and Iowa back to back would be a fun new way to end a season.

NFL is lame AF

I can't remember the last time I watched a full game.  

But my favorite team is the Packers. 

Alrighty then, me as well.  As you could probably tell.

Sooo we're still going to Ireland?

 

[RedSavage]

Surprised it’s still happening

I think it's more "hasn't been officially cancelled yet".

 

[GSG]

I guess I'll just give your ticket to someone else :dunno

You're probably right.

I had also forgotten that Illinois hired Bert as their coach too :blink:

Glad to see it is still scheduled for week 0 since it will be one of the few games that weekend.

Ha.  Good thought,  but they wont even let me float across the boarder to fish, I dont even want to step on land there, just float on boat. Canada may be the last place to let people in.
