Nebraska Softball Game Against No. 1 Texas Tech Moved to 3 p.m. ET Due to Weather
The Nebraska softball contest against top-ranked Texas Tech scheduled for Sunday has been moved up because of expected inclement weather later in the day. The game will now begin at 3 p. m. ET on Feb. 15, with live streaming and radio coverage available for fans who cannot attend.
Schedule shift and broadcast information
The decision to move the game was made to avoid evening storms forecast for the area. The first pitch is set for 3 p. m. ET on Sunday, Feb. 15. The matchup will be streamed live on a national streaming service and will also be carried on the team’s radio network for listeners who prefer audio coverage. The telecast will re-air in its originally scheduled window at 6 p. m. ET, giving fans multiple opportunities to catch the contest.
Because the start time was brought forward, fans should plan travel and arrival times accordingly. Gates and relevant venues are expected to open earlier than previously advertised to accommodate the adjusted schedule.
Ticketing and fan access
Ticket flexibility has been expanded to help supporters adapt to the schedule change. Fans holding All-Access or 1–4 session tickets may use those tickets at either complex tied to the event. For matchups that were originally designated as evening Prime Games but have been moved earlier in the day, a Prime Game ticket is still required for entry to those contests.
Event staff are urging ticket holders to check their physical or digital tickets for any updated instructions on entry gates and session times. Concessions, parking, and other stadium services may run on modified schedules to match the new game time, so arriving early remains advisable.
On-field context: momentum and recent results
The rescheduled meeting comes on the heels of a competitive recent showdown between the two programs. In their most recent clash, Nebraska edged Texas Tech 3-2, handing the top-ranked squad its first loss of that stretch. The Cornhuskers broke a 2-2 tie with a three-run fourth inning and leaned on relief pitching down the stretch to preserve the victory.
Relievers played a pivotal role in that win, with one Nebraska pitcher retiring a string of Red Raider batters to close out the game. Offensively, a two-run homer had earlier tied the contest, but Nebraska’s middle-inning rally proved decisive. Texas Tech managed several scoring opportunities but struggled with runners in scoring position, while Nebraska’s pitching staffs combined for key strikeouts and timely defensive plays.
Sunday’s game offers both programs a chance to measure adjustments made since that prior meeting. For Nebraska, it is an opportunity to build on late-inning execution and bullpen depth; for Texas Tech, it is a prompt chance to respond against a familiar opponent.
With weather dictating the schedule change, fans are encouraged to monitor local conditions and plan accordingly. The updated 3 p. m. ET start time ensures the contest will conclude well before the evening window, preserving player safety and fan experience while keeping the competitive stakes intact.
