Nebraska heads to Omaha to face No. 14 Creighton on Friday.

It's in-state rivalry time. CU embarrassed NU in Lincoln last season. NU upset CU in Omaha two seasons ago.

"I think it matters to the fanbases obviously a lot," Fred Hoiberg said of the NU-CU matchup. "I played in a great rivalry with Iowa State-Iowa and coached in that rivalry. This is now going into year six in this rivalry in this state. The weird thing about this one is that, on the next day, a lot of those fans will be cheering for Nebraska on the football field. It's always been a little bit bizarre to me."
