The schools first met as non-conference opponents in 1911, and then played a conference game annually from 1922 to 2010, first in the Big Eight and later in the Big 12. The rivalry dissolved when Nebraska left the Big 12 for the Big Ten in 2011. With only 135 miles separating the two schools, Nebraska and Kansas State were the nearest cross-border schools in both the Big Eight and Big 12 conferences. Overall, Nebraska has dominated with a record of 78-15-2.

History

edit

The 1939 meeting between Kansas State and Nebraska was televised in Manhattan, making it the second-ever televised college football game.[2] In 1992, the teams met in the Coca-Cola Classic at the Tokyo Dome in Tokyo, Japan. Nebraska defeated Kansas State 38–24 to clinch the Big Eight championship.[3]

When the Big Eight merged with the Southwest Conference in 1996, Nebraska and Kansas State were placed into the Big 12 North division. The Wildcats never defeated legendary Nebraska coach Tom Osborne, who retired in 1997, but the two schools played several high-profile games in the years that followed.

The most famous game in series history took place in 1998, when Kansas State ended its 29-year losing streak to Nebraska.

The final game between Nebraska and Kansas State was a 48–13 NU victory on October 7, 2010. No future games are scheduled, though there have been discussions between the two schools of renewing the rivalry.[4]
