Why the Huskers had been ‘actively exploring’ a Sept. 4 home game, eventually landing on Fordham | Football



Fordham is a member of the Patriot League and played just three games in 2020. The Huskers and Rams have never played each other before. 

With the schedule now finalized, Nebraska said football season ticket holders will receive renewal information this week. 

Nebraska’s contract with Southeastern Louisiana called for a $600,000 guarantee and has that sum set as the buyout as well. However, NU’s news release said the school will explore rescheduling its slated Nov. 13 game with the FCS program to a later date. 

“This will be a tremendous opportunity for the team,” Fordham coach Joe Conlin said in a statement. “Playing a game at an FBS power five school, especially one as steeped in tradition as Nebraska, will be an experience that the team will remember for years.”

Fordham has not played a Big Ten team since 1941.
