A difficult road schedule
The Huskers’ road schedule is much more difficult than its home schedule. They have two ranked home games, including Oregon, which finished the 2024 season ranked No. 10. The Ducks have a new head coach and a very different roster.

As for its road opponents, Penn State (1), Wisconsin (7), Minnesota (18), Purdue (9) and USC (24) finished the 2024 season ranked.
The Big Ten typically schedules matches in nearby states close together to help with travel. There will be difficult back-to-back matches.
This schedule and the Big Ten will test Dani Busboom Kelly greatly in her first season as Nebraska’s head coach. While at Louisville for eight years, the Cardinals won four ACC championships. Nebraska volleyball fans have high expectations for conference and national championships. As always, the Big Ten makes both extremely difficult.
