Original Title: Nebraska AD Troy Dannen on Friday night games: “We can be upset about it all we want, but we’re cashing a pretty large check from our television contract every year. This is the price of that check. In order to fund what we want to do, you end up with a Friday night game here and there."
Nebraska has been resistant to Friday night home games due to disruption it may cause to high school football, but Mitch Sherman of the Athletic reported the decision was taken out of the school’s hands this year in part because its four Big Ten road games (other than at Iowa, which is already a Friday game) all are set for the homecoming weekends of its opponents.
