The Battle for the Broken Chair is back! The most awesome trophy of the Huskers Big Ten era is up for grabs this Saturday.
Nebraska heads to Minnesota for the first of two consecutive November road games. Saturday's game is a key contest for the bowl hopes of both Nebraska and Minnesota, who both enter the game with a 4-5 record with three games to play. The Huskers and Gophers both need a pair of victories in the final three weeks to secure a postseason berth.
Nebraska's path to a bowl game got a little more difficult following a 31-24 overtime loss to Northwestern on Saturday in Lincoln.
