On Wednesday, Nebraska announced a “team practice under the lights,” something fans can attend on Saturday, Aug. 3. The practice — called Big Red Preview — will “give Husker fans a rare opportunity to attend a Husker Football practice at Memorial Stadium before the season kicks off on August 31 vs. the UTEP Miners.”

Here’s the crux: the practice isn’t just being hosted by Nebraska. It has a partner in the endeavor, of which sales from tickets benefit.
