From an Ohio Alumni who lives in Lincoln and works for the Huskers.
Best way to get tickets is through the Ohio allotment, which will be out in the summer.
Similar to other P5 games there is about a month or two for visitors to get tickets order through their school allotment, as Ohio would need to return non sold tickets back to the host school to sell.
The Huskers have sold out every home game since 1962, but tickets are usually available on the resale marketplace of Seat Geek (official resale site) and Ticketmaster.
The visitor section at Nebraska is lower part of section 19, is the team block. The next section is the upper part of section 20 and 21. The overflow is the upper corner of sections on 40 and 41.
The Huskers have usually opened with a home night at 6pm CT start over the past few years which has included a 3Qt drone show.
Many Hotel have a game days rate which includes a flat rate which includes (Fri arrival and leave Sunday morning), I would highly recommend booking your hotel sooner than later. Downtown hotels Graduate Lincoln (this is the visitor hotel if they stay in Lincoln), Embassy Suites, this is a large hotel and is one of the pregame hub on game days. There is a few hotels in south Lincoln away from the downtown area or many people stay in Omaha and drive down on game day. There is a second Embassy Suites on I80 leaving Omaha that serves as the visitors hotel if teams don’t want to stay in Lincoln).
Things to do:
The haymarket area has a lot of bars, shops and restaurants. Making reservations in advance will help a lot.
Berry’s - the Nebraska bar - is the Friday night and a game day hangout, they have a huge outdoor TV which will probably have the Husker VB match on Friday night before and shows CFB games on Saturdays. The pep band plays there on Friday nights as well and the railyard becomes the main pregame tailgate party on game days.
The main team shop is in the student union, they will also have pop up shops around the stadium.
Gameday Eats:
Runza Restaurants and getting the famous runza sandwich, cheeseburgers and their ranch and onion dip. The original runza sandwich is served at the stadium on game day .
Valentino's Pizza which is also served at the stadium.
Haymarket offerings include multiple sushi restaurants, few sports bars, lot of international offerings and Lazlo's Brewery & Grill, which is highly recommended.
I also recommend making a reservation in advance or you could be waiting up to an hour or so for walking ins on Friday night and on gameday.
