The Pac-12 Conference Thursday released the 2018 football schedule, with the Colorado Buffaloes making a return to Nebraska to play the Huskers for the first time since 2010. The once Big 12/Big 8 rivals vacated their yearly series when both teams realigned to the Pac-12 and Big Ten respectfully. This marks the 70th meeting between both schools and the first in modern history as non-conference opponents.
CU opens the season in Denver with the Rocky Mountain Showdown vs. Colorado State, a series that as of now is not scheduled past the 2020 season. The final non-conference game of the season is a first-ever meeting on Sept.
