ESPN names Miami as Nebraska's archenemy in college football

ESPN has identified the Miami Hurricanes as the archenemy of Nebraska football, sparking debate among fans. This selection recalls historical matchups, particularly the 1984 Orange Bowl, where Nebraska lost a national championship bid. Miami's successful history against Nebraska includes three Orange Bowl wins in the late 1980s and early 1990s. However, some argue that Nebraska fans hold more resentment towards Iowa or Colorado in recent times. The long-standing rivalry with the Oklahoma Sooners, dating back to 1912, is also highlighted, as the teams have met 88 times, with Oklahoma leading the series. Nebraska and Oklahoma are set to renew their rivalry in 2029 and 2030, while the last matchup with Miami was in 2015, which Miami won in overtime.
