Nebraska–Oklahoma Football Rivalry
The Nebraska–Oklahoma football rivalry is an American college football rivalry between the Nebraska Cornhuskers football team of the University of Nebraska and Oklahoma Sooners football team of the University of Oklahoma. The rivalry continued in the Big 12 Conference until 2010, though the rivalry was more prominent when both teams were members of the former Big Eight Conference before 1996. The annual series effectively ended when Oklahoma was lined up in the Southern division of the newly formed Big 12 to maintain its rivalry with Texas and also its recruiting hotbeds in Texas. As both teams won their respective divisions in 2010, they met in the 2010 Big 12 Championship Game. Following the 2010 season, Nebraska left the Big 12 for the Big Ten Conference. As a result, the 2009 meeting turned out to be the last regular-season scheduled meeting. Nebraska's departure left the future of the rivalry in doubt. The two teams agreed to play a home-and-home non-conference series sched ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Nebraska Field
Nebraska Field was an American football stadium located on the campus of the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, Nebraska. The stadium primarily served as the home venue for the Nebraska Cornhuskers football team and a variety of other university and state activities. Nebraska Field was demolished in 1923 when the university constructed Memorial Stadium on its former site.

Eager had played his entire NU career at Antelope Field, which was "either as hard as a pavement or was a sea of mud" and had no seating other than a few wooden benches. Eager's cause was assisted by the university's expansion, which necessitated the construction of academic buildings on Antelope Field. Eager himself prepared much of the land for the new stadium, and upon its completion at the northeast corner of North 10th Stree ...

The Bedlam Series is the name given to the Oklahoma–Oklahoma State rivalry.
