Summary
Nebraska hits the road for a pivotal Big Ten opener against Michigan State, a program in transition under new head coach Pat Fitzgerald—whose Northwestern pedigree promises change. The Spartans, burdened by a dismal 98th-ranked offense last year, are banking on transfer influxes and sophomore QB Alessio Milivojevic, who’s poised to take center stage in his third season. Defensively, they’re rebuilding around standout linebacker Jordan Hall, a key tackler and future NFL prospect. With Fitzgerald’s track record of player development, the real test is how fast he can turn things around—while Nebraska sees this early clash as a chance to strike first in conference play.
