Huskers vs Minnesota: Game Time, TV, Odds, Streaming and More

It's on! The battle for the "Bits O' Broken Chair" trophy takes place tomorrow. No more slick, feel-good, sponsored, or meaningless concoctions of wood and metal. This chair is a worthy addition to the Big Ten trophy obsession. A pig, jug, axe and now the chair. Let's cheer on the Huskers and make sure that thing never makes it back to the frozen North.

Nebraska completes its 2014 home schedule on Saturday when the Huskers play host to Minnesota at Memorial Stadium. Nebraska enters the game with an 8-2 overall record and a 4-2 mark in the Big Ten. Last week's loss to Wisconsin left the Huskers tied with Minnesota and Iowa in the conference standings, a game behind the Badgers in the race for the West Division crown. Following the setback, Nebraska dropped to No. 19 in the USA Today Coaches Poll and to 21st in the Associated Press ranking.

Saturday will mark Senior Day at Memorial Stadium, with 13 Husker seniors playing their final game in front of the Nebraska faithful. The group includes Nebraska's all-time leader in all-purpose yardage in Ameer Abdullah, as well as the career leader in pass receptions and receiving yardage in Kenny Bell. The seniors will attempt to help Nebraska to a perfect home record for the second time in three seasons with a victory over the Gophers.

Minnesota enters the game at 7-3 overall and 4-2 in Big Ten Conference play. The Gophers are coming off a 31-24 setback to Ohio State on Saturday in Minneapolis. Minnesota boasts a powerful running game, averaging better than 220 yards per contest on the ground.
