With the Huskers playing two of the best teams in the country the next two weeks, they certainly need all the help they can get.
Nebraska was throttled by Ohio State last season in Columbus and is hoping to have a more competitive matchup in a few weeks.
Despite Nebraska and Ohio State being two of the most illustrious programs in college football history, the two have only went head-to-head five times on the gridiron. The Buckeyes lead the all-time series 4-1.
