Saturday evening kickoff, 7PM CDT in Lincoln.
Eastern Nebraska has transitioned to a very warm late-summer weather pattern. Most of the next ten days in Lincoln are likely to be warmer-than-normal. That should also be the case this coming Saturday.
Looking at a daytime high for the early pregame festivities somewhere between 84 and 89. I'd expect to see some sunshine to go with that. (Sunday looks even warmer -- with 90 degrees definitely possible.)
Kickoff temperature should still be around 80 and look for temperatures in the 70s for most of the game. A bit more wind than the first couple of games -- but not strong. Likely somewhere in the 10-15 -- maybe 18 MPH at times early -- and generally out of the south.
Rain chances. Yes, once again, it's not a 0% chance. However, there won't be a front associated, so I wouldn't expect anything widespread or long-lasting. At most, a scattered shower or thunderstorm. Multiple models pick up on something late-day into evening in the South Central-Southeast Nebraska region. Again, doesn't look overly impressive from a precipitation standpoint. May not materialize, but I'll have to see how it shapes up in the coming days.
