Michigan football vs. Nebraska kickoff time set
The Michigan Wolverines will travel to Nebraska next weekend for the first road game of the season on Sept. 30 and the kick time is official. With Fox selecting USC at Colorado for the Big Noon Saturday telecast, Michigan and Nebraska is set for 3:30 p.m. ET (2:30 local time) from Lincoln.
Michigan and Nebraska have met 12 times all-time with the Wolverines holding a 7-4-1 advantage in the series. It currently has a 3-game win streak over the Huskers with wins at home in 2018 (56-10), a road victory in 2021 (32-29) and 34-3 last season at the Big House. Overall, Michigan is 4-2 against Nebraska since the program became a member of the Big Ten Conference in 2011.
Nebraska is helmed by first-year head coach Matt Rhule, who has the Cornhuskers at 1-2 to start the year after losses to Minnesota and Colorado on the road. It grabbed its first victory last Saturday with a 35-11 win over Northern Illinois.
Michigan is off to a 3-0 start this year after a mostly dominant, if not boring slate of non-conference games. U-M took down East Carolina 30-3 in Week 1, UNLV by a score of 35-7 in Week 2 and Bowling Green 31-6 in the non-conference finale. Michigan was helmed each week by a different interim head coach in Jesse Minter, Jay Harbaugh, Mike Hart and Sherrone Moore over the course of the three-game stretch.

Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh returns to the sidelines this weekend for a game against Rutgers, set for 12 p.m. ET on Big Ten Network.
With Big Ten play coming this weekend, Michigan knows that it has a lot to clean up.
“Still got a lot to work on, I think,” Moore said during his postgame press conference against Bowling Green. “Regardless of the point totals in the previous games, we’re still understanding what we have coming next because every week is a new week. Every week is a new team. We have to be up for the challenge next week against Rutgers. There’s a really good football team coming in here with a lot of confidence. We gotta put our head down and work and get ready for this week.”
