Huskers Release 2025 Schedule

The Nebraska soccer team is set to play 18 games this fall, as the Huskers announced their 2025 schedule this week. NU will play seven non-conference games, 11 conference matches and a pair of exhibitions. 

The Huskers will host 11 regular-season games in the 11th year of Hibner Stadium, after hosting 10 matches in the 2024 season. 

The Big Red will face a challenging schedule as nine opponents qualified for the 2024 NCAA Tournament. Missouri State and Oklahoma State lost in the first round, UCLA advanced to the second round, Minnesota, Ohio State, Iowa, and Michigan State fell in the third round, and USC and Penn State made it to the Elite Eight. 

To start the season, the Huskers will travel to South Dakota State for an exhibition match on August 5, before hosting Colorado State for a friendly on August 8.

The following week, the Huskers will host Southern Indiana and Missouri State to open the regular season. The Big Red will face the Eagles on Thursday, August 14, and the Bears on Sunday, August 17. 

To close out the month of August, Nebraska will head to Stillwater, Okla., for a match against Oklahoma State on August 21, will host Weber State on August 28 and will play Omaha on the road, August 31. 

NU then starts a streak of three-straight home matches at Hibner Stadium, to begin the month of September. The Huskers face Oregon State (September 4) and Kansas State (September 7) before opening Big Ten conference play with Minnesota (September 11). 

The rest of September, the Huskers have a pair of home and away matches, as they play at Penn State (September 18) and at Ohio State (September 21), and are home for Michigan (September 25) and Iowa (September 28). 

On October 5, Nebraska will travel to Northwestern and will return to Lincoln the next weekend, hosting Purdue on October 9 and Maryland on October 12. In the final three matches of the season, the Huskers will face three NCAA tournament qualifiers in USC (October 16) and UCLA (October 19) on the road and Michigan State (October 26) at home.
