A big college football rivalry returns to Colorado Saturday, Sept. 7. The CU Buffs will face off against the Nebraska Cornhuskers at Folsom Field in Boulder. It's a rivalry that can be traced back to the 1800s. It's had unforgettable moments like in 1986 when CU broke a 19-game losing streak, defeating Nebraska 20-10. Dave Plati, the associate athletic director at CU Boulder, looks back at the legendary rivalry.
