The Husker rifle team will travel to Morgantown, WV, for the WVU Fall Classic. The matches will start at 7 a.m. (CT) and take place on Saturday, Nov. 14, and Sunday, Nov. 15. All teams will compete in the smallbore on Saturday, and air rifle will take place on Sunday. The WVU Fall Classic will feature No. 2 Ole Miss, No. 8 TCU, No. 6 Kentucky, No. 1 West Virginia and No. 12 Nebraska. Results can be found here.
Headed into the tournament, the Big Red rifle team is 3-5. The Huskers' most recent match took place at Georgia Southern, where they lost to the Eagles, 4,726-4,707.
“The Fall Classic is going to be a special match,” Head Coach Richard Clark said. “From having a large core of the nation's top teams to the two-day championship-style format, it’s going to be a very fun and competitive weekend. The team has been working hard this fall, defining who we are on the line and instilling the belief that being us will get the job done. I’m excited to watch them compete and perform the way they have been working towards all fall.”
Ole Miss comes into the weekend with an 8-0 record. It defeated the Big Red earlier this season in Oxford, 4,724-4,696. Prior to this season, the Huskers won three of the last five faceoffs against the Rebels.
Nebraska has yet to face TCU this season, but the two programs are no strangers, having met 38 times in program history. TCU heads into the WVU Fall Classic with a 6-3 record. The Horned Frogs have won three of the last five matches against the Huskers.
Kentucky is another familiar foe, coming in with a 4-1 record. One of those wins was a 4,722-4,719 final against the Huskers on October 24.
West Virginia is the host of the event, bringing a 7-1 record into Saturday. The Mountaineers are the No. 1 ranked team in the country, coming off a national championship in 2026. They have swept the Huskers in their last five matches, but the Big Red looks to change that narrative this weekend.
Following the WVU Fall Classic, Nebraska will take a break until after Christmas. Its next match is on January 9 at 8 a.m. (CT) against UTEP.
