Wisconsin is unable to play its scheduled game at Nebraska on Saturday, and Nebraska isn’t ready to sit on its hands on Week 2 of this delayed season. Plenty of observers connected the dots when Nebraska said nothing following Wisconsin’s cancellation announcement.
So, on Thursday the Chattanooga Times Free Press reported Chattanooga is close to finalizing an agreement to play the Huskers on Saturday at Memorial Stadium.
The game is waiting final approval from the Big Ten, but one would think the two parties wouldn’t go down this far down the road if approval was seen as a major stumbling block.
Nebraska will reportedly pay between $200,000 and $250,000 plus expenses. The Mocs were originally scheduled to play just one game this fall, which happened last Saturday. UTC lost 13-10 to Western Kentucky. The program initially anticipated moving into a 3-month hibernation before gearing up for a spring season, now it appears they’ll make a last-minute trip to Lincoln.
