Nebraska vs. Arkansas State: Game Time, TV, Streaming, Odds and More

Everything you need to know to watch Friday’s game between the Huskers and the Red Wolves

Nebraska kicks off its 128th season this Saturday with a matchup against Arkansas State, the defending Sun Belt Conference champion. The Huskers are coming off a 9-4 record in 2016, while Arkansas State posted an 8-5 record last season.

Nebraska heads into Head Coach Mike Riley’s third season with game- tested experience on both sides of the ball, while also introducing new faces at several key positions. The game will mark the Husker debut for starting quarterback Tanner Lee, who spent the first three years of his career at Tulane. Defensively, Nebraska returns significant experience in the secondary and talented players at all three levels of the defense, which will feature a 3-4 look under new defensive coordinator Bob Diaco.

The Red Wolves ended last year as one of the nation’s hottest teams, winning eight of their final nine games en route to earning their fifth Sun Belt title in six seasons. Arkansas State has played in a bowl game each of the past six seasons. They are led by Head Coach Blake Anderson who has posted a 24-15 record in his first three years.
