North Dakota State gave Colorado a scare in Week 1 of the college football season, but head coach Deion Sanders' squad ultimately secured the victory. Meanwhile, Nebraska had no trouble with UTEP, also starting their season 1-0. Now, these teams will face off in Lincoln on Saturday, Sept. 7, at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC.

Nebraska has lost to Colorado three times in a row, most recently in 2023 when the Buffaloes' hype train was just gaining momentum. After dropping that game on the road, Nebraska now returns home, aiming to turn the tide one year later.

Colorado looked quite vulnerable in Week 1, giving Matt Rhule's squad an opportunity to make a statement with a victory over one of college football's most talked-about teams. However, with Shedeur Sanders under center for the Buffaloes, the Cornhuskers will still face tough opposition.
