Columbia, Missouri
Columbia is a city in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is the county seat of Boone County and home to the University of Missouri. Founded in 1821, it is the principal city of the five-county Columbia metropolitan area. It is Missouri's fourth most-populous and fastest growing city, with an estimated 126,254 residents in 2020.

Faurot Field
Faurot Field ( , ) at Memorial Stadium is an outdoor sports stadium in Columbia, Missouri, United States, on the campus of the University of Missouri. It is primarily used for football and serves as the home field for the Missouri Tigers' program. It is the third-largest sports facility by seating capacity in the state of Missouri, behind The Dome at America's Center in St. Louis and Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. In 1972, Memorial Stadium's playing surface was named Faurot Field in honor of longtime coach Don Faurot. During the offseason, soccer goals are set up in the end zones and it is used for intramural matches. Until 2012 it was the site of the annual "Providence Bowl" game between Hickman and Rock Bridge high schools, so named because both schools are located on Providence Road in Columbia, and Faurot is roughly equidistant between the two. This tradition stopped when Missouri joined the Southeastern Conference and conference scheduling made hosting the game more di ...

1934 Nebraska Cornhuskers Football Team
The 1934 Nebraska Cornhuskers football team was an American football team that represented the University of Nebraska in the Big Six Conference during the 1934 college football season. In its sixth season under head coach Dana X. Bible, the team compiled a 6–3 record (4–1 against conference opponents), finished in second place in the Big Six, and outscored opponents by a total of 106 to 89. The team played its home games at Memorial Stadium in Lincoln, Nebraska. Before the season Coach Bible returned for a sixth year with many conference titles to his credit, but suffered the loss of all but one of his starting 1933 players to graduation, and was therefore breaking in a relatively inexperienced squad. Bible's length of tenure at Nebraska had thus far been a clear success, and his length of service now matched the stretch held by Walter C. Booth in his six years as coach from 1900 to 1905, which was at that time the longest in program history. Schedule Roster Coachi ...
