The Creighton vs. Nebraska rivalry has quite a rich history. The two teams have squared off against each other every year since 1977 after a 45 year break that went back to 1932. While Nebraska enjoyed some early success, it has been during the past few decades that Creighton has been a little more than dominant in the series, winning 13 of the past 16 regular season matchups including a current 4 game winning streak against the Huskers.
Nebraska has a different look this season with several players that transferred, graduated, or bolted to try the NBA. Since many Creighton fans don’t necessarily follow the Huskers regularly, we reached out to our friend Brian Rosenthal, who covers the Nebraska beat for the Lincoln Journal Star.
