Northern Iowa is 21st in the FCS Coaches Poll as the Panthers get ready to visit Nebraska. The Panthers are 2-0 and face a Husker team that enter the national rankings at number 23.
That’s Panther coach Mark Farley. It will be a homecoming of sorts for several players from Nebraska on the UNI roster.
Farley on the opportunity to play the Huskers.
Through two games the Panthers are averaging nearly 300 yards on the ground but just 107 of passing.
Nebraska coach Matt Rhule says the Huskers have bigger plans than just being nationally ranked. Nebraska is 23rd in the latest AP Poll after a win over Colorado and take a 2-0 record into Saturday’s game against Northern Iowa.
At the beginning of his second season rebuilding the Husker program Rhule is seeing progress.
After facing two spread teams in the first two games Rhule says the Panthers provide a different challenge.
Rhule says the Panthers will provide a physical test.
