The Gophers will have their sixth consecutive 11 a.m. kickoff next Saturday, when they play at Nebraska, in a game televised on ESPN.
The game time was announced late Saturday night. The Gophers (7-3, 4-2 Big Ten) are coming off a 31-24 loss to Ohio State, and Nebraska (8-2, 4-2) is coming off a 59-24 loss at Wisconsin.
Wisconsin (8-2, 5-1) sits alone atop the Big Ten West division and plays at Iowa this week. But if the Gophers win their next two games -- at Nebraska, then at Wisconsin -- they could still win the division title. The first tiebreaker is head-to-head records.
