Columbia, Mo. - The Big 12 Conference announced today that the University of Missouri's football contest at Nebraska on Saturday, Sept. 30th has been picked up by Fox Sports Net, and will be televised to a national cable audience at 6:00 p.m.

Missouri (1-2), which is idle this Saturday, has two weeks to prepare for the Cornhuskers (2-0), who are currently the nation's top-ranked team.
