The 2024 Big Ten Volleyball Schedules have officially arrived. Nebraska Volleyball learned their conference matchups on Wednesday, June 12. The TV information and times for the matches have not been announced.
The Huskers start their 2024 Big Ten schedule by hosting UCLA and USC on Sept. 27 and 29 at the Bob Devaney Sports Center in Lincoln, Nebraska.
After a quick trip to Illinois (Oct. 3), NU plays three straight home matches against Iowa (Oct. 6), Purdue (Oct. 11) and Rutgers (Oct. 12). They take on Michigan State (Oct. 18) and Ohio State (Oct. 19). The back-to-back road games will be a test for Nebraska.

Illinois travels to Lincoln for a Oct. 25 match and Michigan takes on the Huskers in Devaney on Oct. 26. Next, the reigning Big Ten Championships go on a difficult four straight road matches. They take on Wisconsin in Madison, Wisc. on Nov. 1 and then Northwestern in Evanston, Ill. on Nov. 2. Five days later, NU takes on Oregon (Nov. 7) and then Washington (Nov. 7) on the West Coast.
The Huskers return to Lincoln to battle Minnesota (Nov. 14) and Indiana (Nov. 16). After an away match vs. Iowa (Nov. 20), NU hosts Wisconsin on Nov. 23. It would be the deciding factor of the Big Ten title, as Nebraska and Wisconsin have won the last five conference championships. The Badgers won four straight before NU captured it in 2023.
Finally, the Huskers take on Penn State in Happy Valley on Nov. 29 and Maryland in Park College on Nov. 30 to finish the seasons on the road.
Nebraska’s non-conference schedule has been public knowledge since their spring game on May 4. However, they added the AVCA First Serve Showcase to their schedule. The Huskers will play Kentucky on Aug. 27 in Louisville, Kentucky at 6:00 p.m. CT on ESPN2. Wisconsin and Louisville battle in the second game of the doubleheader.
Other highlights of the non-conference schedule are Creighton (Sept. 10) and Arizona State (Sept. 13) in Lincoln. Before the Big Ten schedule, Nebraska hosts Stanford (Sept. 18) at 7:00 p.m. CT at Devaney. Then they return to the KFC Yum! Center to battle Louisville on Sept. 22.
The Huskers are coming off a 33-2 season highlighted by a Big Ten Title and advancing to the National Championship match. NU hopes to win both titles in 2024 and they have the tools and schedule to do so. It’ll be even more difficult this season with four new conference teams but Nebraska is always hungry for titles.
