Watch the game exclusively on Peacock or listen to the Huskers Radio Network on the radio, at Huskers.com or on the Huskers App.
The Huskers are coming off a seven-point overtime loss to Illinois on a night that marked Memorial Stadium’s 400th consecutive sellout.
Purdue is 1-2 this season and is coming off a 38-21 loss to Oregon State.
Nebraska and Purdue are matching up at Ross-Ade Stadium for the fourth time in the last six years. Nebraska’s last victory at Ross-Ade was a 37-27 win in 2020.
Freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola has been a major bright spot for the Huskers.
Raiola continued his excellent play against Illinois by passing for 297 yards on 24-of-35, and, for the season, has completed 83-of-115 passes for 967 yards for eight touchdowns and two interceptions, both of those coming on heavily contested plays.
