LAS VEGAS (WOWT) – The Nebraska Cornhuskers are set to begin their season in sin city as part of the Players Era Volleyball Showcase<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The AVCA preseason No. 1<\/a> Huskers look to begin another run at a title with matches against the UNLV Rebels and the No. 2 Texas Longhorns.<\/p>\n

Nebraska\u2019s match against UNLV will take place at 7 p.m. CT on FS1. The match against No. 2 Texas will go down 2:30 CT on FOX. You can also catch coverage of both games on the Huskers website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

First Alert 6 will also have live pre- and postgame coverage of Nebraska\u2019s match against No. 2 Texas online and on our streaming apps.<\/p>\n

Nebraska, coming off a 33-1 season that ended in a loss to the eventual national champion Texas A&M Aggies<\/a> in the NCAA Regional Finals in Lincoln<\/a>, are looking to start the season strong in a year where they return All-Americans Andi Jackson, Harper Murray and Bergen Reilly<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Most recently, the Huskers claimed $350,000<\/a> after sweeping their way through the first Spikes Under the Lights<\/a> tournament, beating the No. 17 Florida Gators and the No. 11 SMU Mustangs on their way to that payday.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Nebraska will face a very familiar opponent in No. 2 Texas. Historically, Nebraska holds the edge with a 33-25 record all-time against the Longhorns. However, Texas has had the last laugh, with the last meeting between the squads resulting in a sweep in the 2023 National Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Saturday\u2019s meeting will mark the first between the Huskers and the UNLV Rebels.<\/p>\n
