Nebraska volleyball is competing in another major event to start the 2026 season. The Huskers will travel to Arlington, Texas, to play the Florida Gators in the inaugural Spikes Under the Lights at AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys.
The Huskers face off against Florida in the Spikes Under the Lights semifinal. Nebraska's opening match is set for 7 p.m. CT on Thursday, Aug. 27. Television information has not yet been announced
Each of the two opening matches will be best-of-three sets. The winner will play the Penn State-SMU winner in the championship match at 9 p.m. CT.
The event marks a historic milestone as the first women’s college sporting event to be staged at AT&T Stadium, and one of the first women’s sporting events of any kind to take place in an NFL venue. The stadium holds a capacity of up to 100,000, potentially setting the stage for the largest attendance for a volleyball match in history.
The three-hour exhibition event will air live on a major national network and will feature a $1 million prize pool, the largest ever awarded in women’s college sports.
