The Huskers have had their share of heartbreaks recently, but are hoping for a happy ending to the 2009 season with a win in Saturday's Big 12 Championship Game.
It's been tough for the Husker football team in recent matchups against Top 10 teams. Nebraska beat then-No. 2 Oklahoma in an exciting game in 2001 in Lincoln, but haven't won a game over a top 10 team since.
The Huskers have lost 12 straight games to teams ranked in the top 10 of the major polls, with seven of those losses coming against teams ranked in the top five.
Texas comes into the game as the No. 3 team in the BCS standings. In 2006, the Huskers nearly beat Texas in Lincoln, only to come up two points short against the No. 5 Longhorns. Four years earlier, Texas was ranked No. 7 when they edged Nebraska by three points.
Will the Huskers finally get over the hump and win a big one against a Top 10 team? You can see the Big 12 Championship Game live and in person with tickets from Ticket Express -- where no Husker football game is ever sold out.
