Gabrielle Union, Dwyane Wade returning to Lincoln for Nebraska game
Published:
Nebraska will have the support of a few major stars when it hosts Rutgers on Saturday.
Tuesday, popular actress Gabrielle Union tweeted out that her and husband, NBA star Dwyane Wade, will be in Lincoln this Saturday for the Huskers’ B1G opener. And she’s hoping to see some improvement from the red and white.
Me and @DwyaneWade will be at the next @Nebraska game. We've got a week to make adjustments. We got this. #GBR 🌽🌽🌽

Union is a native of Omaha, Nebraska but actually graduated from UCLA. But she doesn’t seem to have cut any ties with her hometown team. Wade, a Chicago native, attended Marquette.
A visit to Memorial Stadium has become somewhat of tradition for the power couple, attending a game each of the last three seasons in Lincoln.
There’s no doubt that Union would like to be on hand for a better showing than what the Huskers gave last week, falling to Northern Illinois. Nebraska is a two-touchdown favorite over Rutgers currently.
Saturday’s game is schedule for 3:30.
