Nebraska Volleyball Completes Television Schedule, Adds 10 BTN Broadcasts

The Huskers' first match on the Big Ten Network arrives Sunday, Sept. 7, as Nebraska welcomes California for a 1 p.m. CDT match at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. Less than two weeks later, the Huskers wrap up their nonconference slate against Arizona on Sept. 20 on BTN. The Big Red then will open conference play against Michigan on Wednesday, Sept. 24.

Nebraska's next BTN broadcast comes Friday, Oct. 10, at home against Washington. After a four-match television hiatus, the Huskers' next six matches include national broadcasts with the first three on BTN against Michigan State, at Wisconsin and a home tilt against Oregon. The Huskers finish the television tour on the road at UCLA on Nov. 14.

Nebraska's final two regular-season matches will be televised on the Big Ten Network as the Huskers host Penn State on Friday, Nov. 28, and Ohio State on Nov. 29. Any home matches and Big Ten road matches not selected for television will be available on B1G+.

Nebraska's other national appearances include its season opener in the AVCA First Serve Showcase against Pittsburgh on FOX, followed by the Showcase's final match against Stanford on ESPN. Nebraska will then visit Nashville, Tenn., at Bridgestone Arena to face Kentucky on ABC on Aug. 31.

The Huskers also feature nonconference matchups on FS1 against Utah and in-state rival Creighton. The Huskers' first FOX broadcast comes in University Park, Pa., against Penn State on Oct. 3. Additional matches selected for TV, including those on Nebraska Public Media, will be announced later.

Nebraska volleyball is coming off a Final Four finish in 2024, having dropped a five-set showdown with Penn State in the semifinal contest. The Huskers aim to get back to the final weekend after back-to-back seasons in the national championship and semifinals, respectively. Nebraska finished 5-2 in national broadcasts in 2024, falling in a 3-0 sweep at SMU on the ESPN ACC Network in the regular season before dropping the national semifinal to Penn State 3-2 on ESPN.

The 2024 Huskers had wins on ESPN2, ABC, FS1, NBC over Kentucky, Louisville, Illinois, Ohio State, No. 23 Dayton, and Wisconsin. Nebraska's 2025 schedule begins with the Red-White scrimmage in Lincoln on Saturday, Aug. 9, at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. The Huskers will follow up their scrimmage with an Alumni match the following Saturday, Aug. 16.
