Assuming they play at Milliy Stadium in Tashkent, Uzbekistan that is a 13,422 mile round trip. Milliy Stadium is used by the Uzbekistan National Team and FC Bunyodkor for soccer. Seats ~34,000 which would be much easier for the Huskers to fill and continue their sellout streak.
A popular dish in Uzbek cuisine is the somsa: a savory dough filled with meat and vegetables. Runza enthusiasts will be right at home!
A single round trip ticket on a flight is currently $6,429 and is a 23 hour and 50 minute flight with three layovers. If Nebraska brought the limit of 70 players it would cost $450,030 to fly.
If the game had a 12 pm kickoff time in Uzbekistan it would be broadcast live at 10 pm in Lincoln. #BigTenAfterDark
Uzbekistan currently has the United States listed as a red country which requires a 14 day quarantine before entering the country which would throw a big wrench in the Big Ten schedule.
Tashkent and Lincoln side by side:
Milliy Stadium is Memorial Stadium with a hat.

If you’re not a baseball fan, here’s why the Aaron Judge story is so heavily promoted in CFB terms. 🧵
—-
The New York Yankees are a team with a lot of money that hasn’t actually done anything in over a decade, so their fans are desperate to celebrate something. (Texas)
Judge’s 61 home runs tie an AL record, but are way short of the MLB record. Still, people push league records as if they’re important out of a misguided sense of loyalty to the teams they play more. (The SEC)
Other people are salty that the people with more home runs in the past were cheating. The MLB heavily promoted the cheating, which brought them a massive amount of revenue and fan interest, but then feigned ignorance and moral outrage after it happened. (Pony Express)

Ithaca keeps their Liberty League title hopes alive, finishing conference play at 5-1. They now need RPI to lose a game – and the Engineers are currently in overtime with St. Lawrence. #D3FB
Several other teams have clinched #D3FB playoff auto bids or can do so today. The first was Cortland, who clinched the Empire 8 title last week.
Defending #D3FB champions North Central clinched the CCIW title today with a win over WashU. When they won the national championship in 2019, they were an at-large team.

Tomorrow it's FCS Texas Southern's turn to play a team that Google doesn't know about. North American University appears to be a real school in suburban Houston. Founded as Texas Gulf Institute in 2007, decided to become Generic School Name University in 2013 + football this year Image
ESPN doesn't even show the game on their schedule; possibly because it's uncountable for NCAA, NAIA, or anything other than homecoming attendance (no surprises the 0-3 have the Stallions scheduled): Image
The NAU Stallions haven't been completely hopeless:

• Beat NAIA Louisiana College, 42-41
• Lost to FCS Lamar, 47-3
• Beat NJCAA juco Louisiana Community Christian, 30-14
• Body-bagged by D2 West Alabama, 80-0
• Were beating NJCAA juco Southern Shreveport Jags, 49-13...
