Nebraska vs. Ohio State: Series History
***Stats & Info provided courtesy of Nebraska Athletics Communications***
>> Nebraska and Ohio State will meet for the 11th time overall on Saturday, and the first time since 2021. The Buckeyes own a 9-1 advantage in the series, including winning the past seven meetings.
>> Nebraska and Ohio State met for six straight seasons between 2016 and 2021 with the Buckeyes ranked in the top 10 in each of those matchups.
>> At least one of the teams has been ranked in all 11 matchups, including this week's game. In 10 of the 11 matchups Nebraska has faced an Ohio State team ranked 12th or higher in the AP poll, including nine Buckeye teams ranked in the top 10.
>> Nebraska was ranked in three straight matchups between 2011 and 2016, including 2011 when the No. 14 Huskers picked up their lone win in the series, a 34-27 comeback victory in Lincoln. The Huskers rallied from a 21-point third-quarter deficit in that game to mark the largest comeback in school history.
Huskers off to best first half of season since 2016
>> Nebraska opened the season with three consecutive non-conference victories, marking its first 3-0 start to the season since 2016. It was also the first time Nebraska was unblemished in nonconference play since 2016.
>> The Huskers' 5-1 mark at the midpoint of the season was also NU's best six-game record since 2016, when Nebraska began the season with seven wins.
>> The 5-2 start through seven games marks only the second time in the past 10 seasons Nebraska has had five or more wins through seven games.
>> The Huskers' 5-1 first half of the season marked the 10th time since 2000 Nebraska has been 5-1 or better through six games.
>> Nebraska was ranked in both national polls for two consecutive weeks (Sept. 8, Sept. 15). Nebraska rose as high as 22nd in both polls. The No. 22 AP ranking was Nebraska's highest since being ranked 17th entering the 2016 regular-season finale at Iowa.
>> The Sept. 20 game with Illinois was the first matchup of two AP ranked teams at Memorial Stadium since 2013 (vs. UCLA) and the first Big Ten games between two ranked teams since 2011 when 13th-ranked Nebraska defeated No. 9 Michigan State.
Numbers to Know
2 – Nebraska is facing its second straight ranked opponent in No. 4 Ohio State. It marks the first time Nebraska has played back-to-back ranked opponents since late in the 2021 season (Ohio State, at Wisconsin). It is the first time NU has had consecutive road games against ranked teams since early in the 2021 season (at Oklahoma, at Michigan State).
200 – Nebraska senior rover Isaac Gifford ncreased his career tackle total to 207 with eight tackles at Indiana. Gifford is one of just 10 defensive backs and 43 players overall in school history to top 200 career tackles.
900 – Saturday's game pits two of college football's winningest programs, as Ohio State (969) and Nebraska (922) are two of just eight schools with more than 900 wins in school history.
