Fifty years ago, the Oklahoma Sooners and Nebraska Cornhuskers staged the “Game of the Century,” a 35-31 Nebraska victory remembered as the best game in what used to be one of college football’s best rivalries. The two legendary programs are currently scheduled to meet again this fall in Norman to commemorate the anniversary, but the Huskers have reportedly soured on the reunion plans.
According to Stadium’s Brett McMurphy, NU is making moves to back out of the game in favor of scheduling a different opponent in Lincoln that day.
Nebraska is trying to get out of playing Oklahoma on Sept.
