Nebraska Cornhuskers
FILE - Iowa defensive lineman Drew Ott warms up before the start of an NCAA college football game against Pittsburgh, Saturday, Sept. 19, 2015, in Iowa City, Iowa. Iowa has regularly recruited football players out of Nebraska, and several of them have played key roles in the Hawkeyes’ six-game winning streak against the Cornhuskers. Ott, from Giltner, Neb., was a starter in Iowa’s 38-17 win over Nebraska in 2013 and its 37-34 overtime loss to the Huskers in 2014. The teams play Friday Nov. 26, 2021, in Lincoln, Nebraska.
