CORN NATION REACTS Survey Results: It’s a Landslide of Beef & Cabbage
This article brought to you by FanDuel(CLICK HERE to check out FanDuel’s Sportsbook) I decided as this week rolled we needed to start getting to the heart of matters as September 5th creeps ever nearer. And with other schools making deals for sponsored jersey patches – hell, even conferences! – I thought we should get […]
Huskers Unveil Alternate Uniforms for a Wild Halloween Night Against Washington (UPDATED)
(UPDATED with more uniform images below) Halloween always turns into something more than just trick-or-treating for the kids when it falls on a Saturday and the Huskers are going to try and turn the Monsters Ball into a Memorial Stadium party complete with a black and red look on the field. There will also no […]
Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: Halfway Through Fall Camp
Welcome my most recent edition of my Nebraska football player power rankings. As I have said before, this list will be completely subjective in several ways and may not follow a logical path. Or maybe it will. This power ranking list will be a combination of the most important, most impactful, a recent contribution, waiting […]
HUSKERS FOOTBALL 2025-2026: Coach Movement Out, Much More Coach Movement In
Think of this as an intermission, if you will, in the fall practice 4-part review series and look back and forward at 2025 and 2026 Husker Football. (If you’re playing catch-up on the series, CLICK HERE for PART 1 and/or CLICK HERE for PART 2.) The reason? Simple – in Parts 3 and 4, I’ll […]
Is Nebraska Finally Recruiting the Trenches Like a Big Ten Powerhouse?
Nebraska is on the cusp of a pivotal season that could very well determine how Matt Rhule’s tenure in Lincoln ultimately develops. There are plenty of questions surrounding the Huskers heading into 2026, but many of the issues that have plagued Rhule’s team have centered around one area: the trenches. Inconsistency along both the offensive […]
Friday Flakes: Prepare Yourself for the Anthony Colandrea Experience – Iowa is Likely Salivating
A few things can be true all at the same time. First, I am excited to watch Anthony Colandrea play quarterback for Nebraska in 2026. I believe he is going to be a substantial upgrade at the quarterback position in terms of leadership and mobility. The ceiling for Nebraska’s offense is substantially higher with him […]
Five Heart Podcast: Nebraska Husker Football Fall Camp & Husker Volleyball Red & White Scrimmage
The Five Heart Podcast focuses heavily on Nebraska football as fall camp gets underway, with particular excitement surrounding the revamped defense. The hosts discuss new defensive coordinator Rob Aurich and safeties coach Tyler Yelk, praising their football backgrounds, straightforward personalities, and enthusiasm for Nebraska. The new 4-2-5 defensive scheme is expected to improve Nebraska’s ability […]
Owen Chambliss May Not Be Loud, But Everyone Hears Him
Owen Chambliss will be the first to tell you he’s far from the loudest guy in the room. When I asked him how difficult it was to come to a new program and not just try to earn a starting job, but also earn the level of trust from teammates in a short time necessary […]
Nebraska’s Offensive Line Finally Has a Coach Who Can Fix It
[Below is a nice, cleaned up version of the video, which I assure you, has many rambling moments, including where I talk about running backs being the biggest morons of the football teams. So… if you’d like this cleaned up article, yay! If you like a rambling monologue about what I think about Geep, what […]
Thursday Flakes: Nebraska Sports and can Anyone Loan me $12 Billion?
Yesterday was a big day for me. My oldest, Jeneca, started kindergarten. My wife’s and my little “Quarantiny Suprise” is really no longer that. I get to join the exclusive club of being a proud parent who sees their oldest go to school. Ok, it’s not THAT exclusive, but still, the point remains. On a […]
HUSKERS FOOTBALL 2025-26 Part 2: We Conquer the One-Score Game Curse…But a Few Get Away
As the ‘25-’26 review/preview marches on, I took first a refreshing shot of Sailor Jerry and then a look back at last year’s slate. Yes, we know the overview. The Huskers started off 6-2 and Matt Rhule was given an extension with Penn State potentially sniffing around. The Huskers appeared to be in position to […]
Bowling Green Falcons 2026 Football Preview
Nebraska originally wasn’t supposed to be playing Bowling Green in the second week of the 2026 football season. In fact, Nebraska SHOULDN’T be playing Bowling Green this season. Bowling Green replaced Tennessee on the 2026 schedule because Nebraska wanted another home game in 2027 and doesn’t really care about strength of schedule anymore. Just listen […]
Nebraska Football: 12 Things to Know if You Are Going to a Game in Lincoln
One of the facts that can help illustrate how Nebraska football gamedays are simply different from any other college football gameday throughout the country is that when the Huskers are playing in Memorial Stadium on a Saturday (or sometimes a Friday) that for a few hours it is considered the third largest city in the […]
Corn Flakes: Husker Open as AVCA Preseason #1
Today the AVCA Preseason poll came out and our Huskers are ranked number one. The Huskers have been ranked the preseason number one nine times, which is the most of any school. This comes off of a fifth place finish in the 2025 season after losing their only game to eventual national champions Texas A&M. […]
Corn Nation Reacts Survey: Whose Patch Should Adorn the Huskers 2027 Jerseys?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Nebraska fans and fans across the country. Last week, I threw out a poll as to who you thought our leading rusher would be and got more responses about possible sponsor jersey patches. […]
Corn Flakes: Roger Craig Is Now an NFL Hall-of Famer
Another Monday, another week closer to football season. I am most excited to see how the offensive line performs under their new coach, Geep Wade. It has been frustrating to watch Nebraska football locked in a cycle of underdevelopment and underperformance. Husker fans love the ethos of the Pipeline and celebrate that position group as […]
HUSKERS FOOTBALL 2025-2026 Part 1: Back-to-Back Bowls, But When Things Went Bad…
Honestly? A 7-6 2025 season seemed to leave Huskers fans in a fouler mood than Head Coach Matt Rhule’s 5-7 bowl-free 2023 inaugural slate. The ‘25 group even found success in one-score contests (more on that in Part 2), games which had plagued the squads since Scott Frost arrived. Compare it to ‘23 when Rhule’s […]
Friday Flakes: The Day Nebraska Football and Taylor Martinez Beat Dana Holgorsen
YouTube can be great at times. Two nights ago my algorithm was nice enough to drop highlights from a high scoring game in 2010 between #16 ranked Nebraska and #14 ranked Oklahoma State. As the YouTube thumbnail came across my screen I saw the title, “Nebraska high-scoring shootout with Oklahoma State 2010.” I vaguely remembered […]
Five Heart Podcast: Husker Fall Football Camp Begins and Hope Springs Eternal
We are likely going to have a lively show for you good folks Thursday night. Fall football camp began this week, and the spotlight is on Lincoln. How is the team looking as Fall camp begins? What words of wisdom were given at Big Ten Media Days? Somehow we missed that Dr. Tom Osborne was […]
Husker Volleyball is Right Around the Corner: Here’s What You Need to Know
We are almost through the stretch of the summer that everyone dreads from year to year. Why do people dread it you may ask? Because there’s no sports on. Well there is, but all you can watch is either the MLB or golf for the most part and those are what I like to call […]
What Is the Protect College Sports Act Trying to Save?
The final version of the “Save College Sports Act” has headed to the Senate. Here is a one line statement of what it offers. There’s even bits in it for salary capping… Coach and Manager Salary Funding (Section 114(e)): For large athletic programs (schools generating over $80 million in annual athletic revenue), the Act prohibits […]
Thursday Flakes: Huskers Seasons Get Revved Up
We are steadily approaching the fall sports seasons at Nebraska. There is so much to look forward to, including the fall weather we just had the past couple of days here in Lincoln. Don’t worry, I’m sure the first football game will be 90+ degrees at kickoff. I believe it’s written in football lore. Something […]
Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: Start of Fall Camp
This season I will be publishing a weekly power ranking of Nebraska’s players. This list will be completely subjective in several ways and may not follow a logical path. Or maybe it will. This power ranking list will be a combination of the most important, most impactful, a recent contribution, waiting in the wings, rumors […]
Corn Nation Reacts Survey: Who Will Lead the Huskers Backfield This Season?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Nebraska fans and fans across the country. There’s obviously a bit of a logjam at running back as the Huskers look to replace 2025 All-American Emmett Johnson, who was the bright spot in […]
Corn Flakes: Big Ten Media Days For Volleyball and Colandrea on Maxwell Watch List
Andi Jackson and Bergen Reilly joined Coach Dani Busboom Kelly at Big Ten Media days in Chicago on Monday. The team is ready to face the pressures of being the three time Big Ten champs. And this season is going to start off extra special with a stadium match in Arlington, Texas. We only have […]
