Week 0 is the unofficial start of the college football season. As has been the case in recent years, it doesn't exactly offer up the most intriguing matchups.

The lone exception in 2022 is the Big Ten West game between Nebraska and Northwestern, the only national broadcast from the slate. The game will take on added interest as it kicks off from Dublin.

The Cornhuskers and Wildcats are coming off disappointing seasons that saw them finish sixth and seventh in their division, respectively. They both finished 3-9 overall and 1-8 in conference play, though Nebraska finished ahead of Northwestern by way of a 56-7 victory over the Wildcats. The only Big Ten team to finish with a worse record was Indiana in the East, (2-10, 0-9 Big Ten).

Nebraska's season in particular was strange. The Cornhuskers outscored their opponents 335-272, with their three victories coming by an average of 39.7 points. Moreover, each of their nine losses came by single digits; only one team, No. 5 Ohio State, won by multiple possessions (nine points).

The pressure is on Cornhuskers coach Scott Frost as he heads into Year 5, considering he has yet to lead his alma mater to a winning season. To that end, a similar result to last year's contest would be a great way for Nebraska to start its 2022 season.

Here's how to watch the Week 0 thriller that is Nebraska vs. Northwestern:

The Nebraska-Northwestern game will broadcast live on Fox starting at 12:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, Aug. 27.

Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt will reportedly call the game from the booth, with Jenny Taft serving as sideline reporter at Aviva Stadium.
