LINCOLN, Neb. -- Mike Riley wanted a change of scenery when he left Oregon State for Nebraska the first week of December 2014. One vision he thought he had left behind was the one of the Oregon Ducks beating his team year after year.Right after he accepted the job in Lincoln, he said, someone told him the Ducks were on the schedule in 2016 and 17.The first game of the home-and-home series is Saturday at Memorial Stadium, and Riley says hes excited about it -- maybe because he figures he can be more competitive with the Ducks now that hes at Nebraska.We didnt fare all that well through the many years with them, Riley said, but it was a great rivalry and we saw changes in both programs as we went forward. It was one of those deals where you didnt necessarily like it, but you had to admire the work that was going on in that program.Riley lost his last seven meetings against the Ducks , who went 80-14, won four conference titles and played in two national championship games from 2008-14.The Oregon team his Huskers will face is not quite as imposing. The No. 22 Ducks (2-0) are coming off a 9-4 season, and while their offense has continued to ring up big numbers, their defense was one of the nations worst in 2015 and has been shaky so far under new coordinator Brady Hoke.Nebraska needs a win to show its on the rise under Riley, who went 6-7 in his first season with a bunch of close losses and has pulled away in the second halves of blowout wins over Fresno State and Wyoming.It is a good opportunity because this is a national team, a team thats been good for a long time, and itll be a great opportunity for us to get a big win, and thats what were after, Riley said.Oregon needs a win to show its not slipping. The Ducks finished last season ranked No. 19 and were No. 24 in this years preseason poll.Especially with the preseason rankings and current rankings, we have an underdog feel, and I love that, and the guys love that, quarterback Dakota Prukop said. Were working well with that.Things to know about the matchup:PAC-12 VS. BIG TENSince 2000, Oregon is 6-3 against opponents from the Big Ten and Nebraska is 12-10 against current members of the Pac-12. Oregon is playing Nebraska for the first time since 1986, when the Huskers were in the old Big Eight. The Huskers have won five of six meetings with the Ducks.PREPARING FOR NOISEThe Ducks plan to use silent counts on offense to counter the noise of Nebraskas 350th consecutive sellout crowd.Prukop, the first-year starter who is a graduate transfer, played before about 20,000 at Montana State, and his first two games at Autzen Stadium in Eugene drew about 54,000. Ive never been in front of 90,000, Prukop said. Im sure therell be a big difference at Nebraska.TURNOVER BATTLEPrukop has thrown no interceptions in 61 attempts, and Nebraskas defense is tied for second in the nation with seven picks. The Ducks have lost two fumbles, both by Charles Nelson on punt and kick returns. Nebraskas Tommy Armstrong Jr. has been intercepted once, and the Huskers have lost no fumbles.ROYCE ROLLSOregons Royce Freeman is 129 yards from moving past Kenjon Barner as the schools No. 2 career rusher. Freeman needs 1,588 yards to overtake LaMichael James at the top of the chart. Freeman, who set a single-season record with 1,836 yards last season, comes to Lincoln averaging 147 a game.TIES THAT BINDOregon coach Mark Helfrich and Nebraska offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf have known each other since they were contemporaries as star high school and small college quarterbacks in the Beaver State. Nebraska special teams coach Bruce Reads father, Don Read, was Oregons head coach from 1974-76.And both schools have Tom Osbornes . Oregons Osborne is a longtime assistant, Nebraskas is the College Football Hall of Fame coach and then a congressman.We always say `The Tom Osborne around here, Helfrich said, adding that Nebraskas Osborne set a lot of standards during his 25-year career.We know whose stadium were going into, Helfrich said.---Online:AP college football website: http://collegefootball.ap.org Cheap Nike Basketball Jerseys .
