Nebraska football fans will get more than four quarters of action when the Huskers host North Dakota on Sept. 19.
Memorial Stadium will again transform into a concert venue as multiplatinum country music star Cole Swindell takes the stage for Nebraska's first postgame football concert. The show will begin approximately 30 minutes after the conclusion of the contest. Kickoff is 6:15 p.m., and the concert is included with a game ticket.
Field passes will go on sale in July for those who purchase tickets to the Nebraska-North Dakota game.
A four-time Academy of Country Music Awards winner and Grammy-nominated artist, Swindell has 14 No. 1 songs as an artist and songwriter. His catalog includes "She Had Me at Heads Carolina," "You Should Be Here," "Chillin' It" and "Ain't Worth the Whiskey."
While postgame concerts are new to Nebraska football, Memorial Stadium has hosted other major concerts over the years.
