Nebraska athletic director Troy Dannen has canceled nonconference games against Tennessee in 2026 and 2027 as part of a plan to recoup lost revenue from reduced seating capacity during major renovations of Memorial Stadium.

Tennessee will no longer play Nebraska in a home-and-home series that’s been on the books for 19 years because Nebraska is buying out the contract.
