HUSKERS Recover From Horrendous Start To Go 5-0 for 1st Time in 10 Years: NEBRASKA 48 Maryland 23
Nebraska’s first quarter performance had Nebraska Cornhuskers fans thinking dark thoughts as daring to believe in the 2026 squad appeared to be teetering on the edge of another crushing defeat, this time to a 2-2 Maryland squad coming off a 54-3 beatdown courtesy of UCLA. Or as super-spy Sterling Archer put it, “I’ll be requiring […]
Nebraska 48, Maryland 23: Every Week in the Big Ten Is a Crapshoot
Nebraska football beat Maryland 48-23 at Memorial Stadium on Saturday, and the Huskers are 5-0 for the first time since 2016. They got there the hard way. The first half was ugly, the penalty flags kept coming, and Maryland outgained Nebraska 300-195 in total yards before the break. Nebraska still led 28-23 at halftime, then […]

Halftime Check-In: How in the Blue Hell Are We Ahead?: NEBRASKA 28 Maryland 23
If you don’t believe in conspiracy theories, referee behavior in the first half of today’s Maryland game did their best to sway your thoughts. The crew who worked the infamous Michigan v. Western Michigan game put on a show calling a staggering 18 penalties for 161 yards – with a half still left to play. […]

Nebraska vs. Maryland Pre-Game Vibes: TCOB Part II – Soup Those Turtles Early
Is It Time For Us to get Over HUSKERS PTSD? Matt Rhule threw this warning out there on Monday, and, sure, always respect your opponents, we did play a 3-point game with these guys last season and Malik Washington is still an excellent quarterback even if he did start the 2nd half off last week […]
Saturday Early Games Thread Of Waiting!
It was a wild night last night as Northwestern pounded Penn State. Offensive Coordinator Chip Kelly is running some old school offense. They came out with wing T concepts and even ran an old play from 1958 called The Lonesome Polecat. Early game Michigan at Minnesota…. Can PJ Fleck’s lack of a running game hold […]
Week 5 Predictions: Terrapins at Huskers
Mike: Is Maryland a case of “Dead Coach Walking”? Jill: The Terps have looked awful the past two weeks and gave Nebraska fans message board material. This should be interesting. Jarek: The only reason Locksley said the Nebraska crowd isn’t that loud is because he can’t hear us over the alarm bells ringing to fire […]
Husker Volleyball Visits Maryland on Saturday Night
After an emotionally charged match at Penn State on Thursday night, the Huskers now head to Maryland to play match 2 of 3 of their road trip. The Huskers hope to get another sweep on Saturday. The team probably played their most dominant and emotional match of the season on Thursday when they entered Rec […]
What’s Wrong With Maryland Football?
This is our weekly Q&A with our upcoming college football opponents. I asked our Maryland SB Nation site, Testudo Times, just two questions. Their head dude in charge, Nolan Rogalski, answered.. Questions: Answer: Maryland football is in a real predicament right now. Their coach, who was signed to a five-year extension to make roughly $6 […]
The 24 HOUR RULE: Maryland Homecoming Weekend, Softball Fall Ball, Penn State Is Still Trash & Other Random Thoughts
As hard as we all try, not every single week of football season contains a Christmas-tree light flashing headline. But is there always something going on? Absolutely. Every now and again, this column just likes throw a little of everything at you, and isn’t that easier and more fun when you don’t have the time […]
Five Reason Nebraska Will Win: Maryland
The Nebraska Football team is 4-0 for the first time since 2016, which means I am 4-0 for the first time EVER! We are going to ride this streak all the way through November! It’s October and if we can’t chug some mid-season Kool-Aid now, when can we? Nebraska is going to bring another big […]
Friday Flakes: Nebraska Football Cynicism is Justified but Is It Costing Fans the Season in Front of Them?
Chris Williamson’s newsletter (Modern Wisdom Podcast) this past Monday seemed particularly timely and is relevant to what I have been hearing and reading from those covering Nebraska football as well as the Husker fans themselves. Here is the quote from Chris’s newsletter on Cynicism: “Cynicism in relationships is a defence against heartbreak and betrayal, and […]
Husker Volleyball Blanks Penn State to Start Their East Coast Road Trip – #1 Nebraska 3 – #16 Penn State 0
Nebraska 3-Penn State 0 – 25-20, 25-17, 25-18 What a day it’s been for Husker nation so far with some being bad, but this match being the bright spot. After almost 24 hours of rainfall in Lincoln, the city ended up getting around 6.5 inches of rain and lots of flooding to deal with. It’s […]

NEBRASKA (4-0) vs. Maryland (2-2) – It’s a Business Meeting; Keep the Focus : HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN
”I mean, we lost 56-7 to Indiana two years ago, and we came back and, (while) we didn’t win the next week against (#4)Ohio State, we played pretty dang well (21-17 loss with plenty of assistance from the B1G’s striped felons), so I don’t believe last week carries over this week. – Matt Rhule 2026 […]
Can Nebraska Capitalize on Its On-Field Momentum on the Recruiting Front?
Winning fixes a lot of things in college football. It also makes recruiting pitches considerably easier. Nebraska heads into its Homecoming matchup with Maryland with momentum building on the field, and Matt Rhule now has another opportunity to turn that progress into something tangible on the recruiting trail. The Maryland weekend has developed into another […]
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball, Baseball, Hockey Oh My
A little-known fact has happened over the last two weeks here in Nebraska…we have a monsoon season now! The last two weeks have been nothing but rainy and cold days that would make the west coast proud. I’m fairly certain I’m one 80-degree sunny day away from my lawn being tall enough to engulf an […]
Husker Volleyball Visits Rival Penn State on Thursday Night
In the football world, everyone loves Iowa Hate Week. The week leading up to that game is met with loads of tension built up between the two teams and fan bases. In the volleyball world, Nebraska’s “Iowa” has been Penn State lately. Penn State has kind of become the transfer destination for girls that have […]
Riley Van Poppel Gave Up His Single Digit. Why? Because He’s Not Meeting His Standard.
Riley Van Poppel is probably a little too hard on himself if you ask me. Now, that’s just a guess, as I don’t claim to know Van Poppel except for what I see on the field and hear in the press room. But even if close friends are included, nobody probably knows whether or not […]
Nebraska Football Beats Michigan State 31-13: The Stat Scorecard, the Pass Rush, and Why I’m Not Predicting Anything
Nebraska football opened Big Ten play the right way. The Huskers went into East Lansing, took a 24-10 halftime lead over Michigan State, and never let the Spartans back in the game. Final score: 31-13. Nebraska is 4-0 and 1-0 in the Big Ten. I was at my oldest son’s wedding but I did watch […]
Nebraska Football: Steady as it Goes…for Now
There is no denying that Michigan State was a “step up” in competition for Nebraska this last week. First conference game, it’s on the road, the highest quality opponent to date. There was some inconsistency from both sides of the ball, but weirdly not overly stressful. Going 3 and out to start both halves was […]
HUSKERS HAPPY HOUR: The Huskers Get Their 1st Big 10 Opener Win Since 2019!
It’s true. The Huskers had not won a Big 10 opener since defeating Illinois 42-38 back in 2019. We talked about this, and as always, many other things. Mylie kicked things off by dropping in and catching us up on some volleyball talk with those ladies currently undefeated and ranked #1, but having dropped a […]
Week 4 Cobs: Bad Kicks, Dirty Hits and Clanging Cowbells
It’s that time of the week again! Time to get down and dirty as we slide our way through this week’s cob nominations. Penn State The Nittany Lions were jumping around after going up 17-0 in Happy Valley against the Badgers. Then it all fell apart for Penn State. Texas Linebacker Colin Simmons From third […]
Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: A New #1 and the Five-Star Who Finally Showed Up
Welcome to the 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.
