Description
The Colorado Buffaloes travel to Lincoln on Saturday to play the Nebraska Cornhuskers on NBC for a Week 2 rivalry game. 🏈
The game is a rematch between Colorado head coach Deion Sanders and Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule. The Buffs won last year's game against Nebraska 36-14 in Boulder. Saturday's game will be played at Lincoln's Memorial Stadium.
The game will kick off at 5:30 p.m. MT Saturday on 9NEWS and NBC affiliates across the country.
"I have a ton of respect for Matt Rhule," Sanders said Tuesday. "He’s in − I call it our class of coaches. We all took on a tremendous task that year along with (Arizona State) coach (Kenny) Dillingham and several others. So I feel like we’re a fraternity. So I root for that class of head coaches that came in that year."
Sanders and Rhule both are in their second seasons, and both are tasked with bringing their programs back to prominence. Saturday's game will be a big test for each program.
The Buffs are coming off a 31-26 season-opening win over the North Dakota State Bison last week.
