The Nebraska Cornhuskers (5-2, 3-2) will try to snap a two-game losing streak when they host the Washington Huskies (4-3, 1-3) on Halloween night. Both teams enter the game coming off of bye weeks.
Nebraska is 17-2 all-time on Halloween. This is the program's first Halloween game since a 2015 loss at Purdue. The Huskers last won on Halloween in 2009, 20-10 at Baylor.
The Huskers last played a Halloween home game in 1998, when Texas upset the No. 7 Cornhuskers, 20-16. The last home Halloween victory was a 52-7 victory over No. 8 Colorado in 1992.
Nebraska has announced a special blackout theme and uniforms for this Saturday's game. The Huskers will wear black alternate jerseys and a black helmet with a script Huskers logo.
This year's blackout theme
is "Our Red Burns Brighter." The design draws on the night-game atmosphere at Memorial Stadium.
Along with the primary black, the jersey features metallic red accents inspired by the glow of flames and fireworks, and the vibrant red that shines throughout Memorial Stadium on game day.
The jersey pairs with a black helmet that debuts the iconic Huskers script in metallic red. The metallic red stripe on top of the helmet features the crop row pattern, paying homage to the state's agricultural heritage.
This is the second straight year Nebraska has held a blackout game. Last season, the Huskers hosted USC and lost 21-17.
