The Huskers host Maryland on Friday at 7 p.m. and Rutgers on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. at the Bob Devaney Sports Center. Friday’s match against Maryland is Nebraska’s annual “Pink Match” sponsored by CHI Health. The Rural Radio Network’s Jayson Jorgensen spoke with head coach John Cook about last week and the challenge ahead.
