Football fans will have to wait a few extra days to find out the kickoff time for Nebraska-Minnesota.
That Nov. 5 tilt in Lincoln has been optioned to a six-day pick by conference TV partners. That is the case for five of the seven Big Ten games that Saturday.
This option eliminates prime time as a possible kickoff window. The kickoff time will be announced after this weekend’s games.
Nebraska’s kickoff this week is Saturday at 2:30 p.m. against Illinois on ABC, with Dave Pasch and Dusty Dvoracek in the booth.
