Nebraska volleyball continues to garner the attention of national television networks, as ESPN announced Thursday morning the addition of more broadcast designations for the Huskers.
As previously announced, the Big Red will start the season on ESPN2 facing Kentucky on Aug. 27 at the KFC Yum! Center. That contest will be followed by the Wisconsin-Louisville matchup.
Nebraska will then await its next ESPN broadcast matchup on Sept. 22, when the Huskers and Louisville will battle on ABC at 11:30 a.m. CDT. This will be the first regular-season match to air on ABC.
