Yeah, I'll look just in case, but here's what was in the newspaper 
about it:

   Shrewsbury said the Big Ten Network picks which games to feed the 
   Lincoln system. The network often carries multiple games at same time.

   Minnesota and Purdue, for example, will play at 11 a.m. along with 
   Northwestern. Shrewsbury said there has been no discussion yet 
   about alternate feeds.

I'm not happy with how Northwestern is mentioned in the above.  However,
Nebraska and Minnesota have a very long history, having played each other
51 times, more games than the Huskers have against any other Big Ten school.  
The word here is that Nebraska asked to be in the same division as 
Minnesota because of that long history.

Nebraska and Northwestern have only met four time (with the Cats having one 
win, back in 1931), and Purdue is one of two Big Ten teams that Nebraska 
has never defeated, with just one loss back in 1958.  (The other team 
they've never beaten is Ohio State, with two losses, 1955 and 1956.)

Anyway, it is better to be able to watch the game a day late than
not at all. :-)
