Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 31 Oct, 17:53 · Archive

Nebraska plays Washington in a night game wearing blackout uniforms on Halloween, seeking to bounce back after consecutive losses.

Nebraska will host Washington in a night game on Halloween wearing blackout uniforms at Memorial Stadium, the first Halloween game at the stadium since 1998. Both teams are coming off bye weeks and have experienced recent setbacks.

Nebraska has lost its last two games to Oregon and Indiana after leading in the fourth quarter of both contests against what the outlets describe as arguably the two best teams Nebraska will face this season. Washington has also suffered close losses to Minnesota and USC, before being defeated by Iowa earlier this month.

Quarterback Anthony Colandrea has confirmed he will return to Nebraska for his final year of eligibility ahead of this fixture.
