I gotta disagree with the US 75 route.
We go back and forth to Ft. Worth from home here in South Dakota.
Best route for us is straight south on US 81, which turns into I-135 in Kansas and then I-35 south at Wichita. Four lane all the way south starting in Norfolk, Nebraska.
Since you are in Lincoln, just chug a little west on I-80 to York, Nebraska and go south on US 81.
Wichita is an easy drive through. Oklahoma City is not as bad as it once was. Take I-35 West at Denton and avoid Dallas, Ft. Worth is not as bad as Dallas.
