Monday Press Conference - Huskers Discuss Badgers

Head Coach Mike Riley and members of the Nebraska football team met with members of the media Monday at Memorial Stadium to talk about Saturday's primetime showdown with No. 9 Wisconsin.

Kickoff between Nebraska (3-2) and Wisconsin (4-0) at Memorial Stadium is set for 7 p.m., with a live national telecast by BTN.

The Huskers improved to 2-0 in the Big Ten with a 28-6 road victory at Illinois last Friday, while the Badgers opened league play Saturday with a 33-24 home victory over Northwestern.

Nebraska and Wisconsin are playing for the Freedom Trophy for their fourth season in 2017. The trophy debuted in 2014 when the schools started competing in the Big Ten West Division and meeting each season. Nebraska and Wisconsin have met six times since the Huskers joined the Big Ten in 2011, with the Badgers holding a 5-1 advantage. The teams have split two games in Lincoln.
