Nebraska Cornhuskers Football - Gimme Red 'Til I'm Dead!
One of the best wrestlers in the state of Nebraska from the second he hit the mat, Zaiyahn Ornelas announced Monday that he’s going to be a Husker. A senior-to-be for Creighton Prep, Ornelas spent his first three high school seasons at Class C Wilber-Clatonia where he dominated — he won three Class C state […]

Kenneth Williams opened the second half of the Northwestern game by taking the their kickoff on the 5-yard line. From there, he sensed that the Wildcats had deployed too many forces to that side of the field and immediately turned on the jets to try and make the corner on the opposite side of the […]

This week on the Overreaction Show, Greg, Hoss, and Jake will discuss and break down Saturday’s 28-21 win over the Northwestern Wildcats. As has been the Huskers’ modus operandi in conference play, it was not a pretty game. It was, in fact, ugly. But as we have also seen most of this season (the exception […]

In late June, I did an in-depth weight class preview after the addition of AJ Ferrari in the transfer portal. I went through and highlighted the probable starters and their backups at every weight — along with many of their accomplishments. You can find that here — there is really only one change from then […]

The Husker women’s basketball team played an exhibition against Mount Marty on Friday night. It went as one would hope for a Big Ten team playing an NAIA school. Nebraska won 104-40 with a pair of sophomores notching double-double performances in Amiah Hargrove (26 points, 10 rebounds) and Britt Prince (14 points, 10 assists). The […]

Survive, and advance. It wasn’t pretty, that’s for sure. But once again, Nebraska found a way to win the dadgummed game in the fourth quarter. “Fourth quarter Dylan” was a little late in arriving, but once again, Nebraska’s captain delivered with the game on the line. Prior to that? Well, we’re going to nit-pick that […]

Today was a first for me. Yes, I am sure you all want to hear about it. At halftime I took my dog to the track to run around. I took some headphones with me and I ended up walking around the track and I listened to the first half of the third quarter on […]

Nebraska 3, Michigan State 0 – 25-15, 25-15, 25-18 Well it wouldn’t be a game day if it didn’t include a Husker volleyball sweep.

Nothing will ever be easy I wondered in the halftime recap how the Huskers would respond once again facing a 7-6 score, this time on the upside, when the second half began. Last week, you may have heard, it didn’t go so well. Against Northwestern, history and the odds said something was gonna get tough […]

Nebraska is 6-2 and bowl eligible in October for the first time since 2016. Let that sink in for a moment. Was it pretty? God no. Was it another heart attack-inducing, PTSD-triggering, one-score game that aged me 83 years? Absolutely. But we won 28-21, and that’s all that matters right now. I said it after […]

And here we are again. This time the Huskers lead 7-6 instead of trailing by that score, but, just like last Friday, the game has been turned into a vacant lot mud fight by their opponent, which one would think will play right into Northwestern’s hands, especially given how Nebraska reacted to a similar situation […]

I’m predicting a high potential for pitchforks and torches after this game. If you’ve seen the commercial where the coach is put on the hot seat in Fanville, then you get the idea of what I’m talking about. Except that our coach isn’t sponsored by Dr. Pepper. I woke up this morning with my PTSD […]

It weirdly seems like there’s still a contingent out there thinking we should beat Northwestern by 14-17 points despite the fact this is a 5-2 team, 3-1 in conference, on a 4-game win streak. The bookies believe this as well with the Huskers as -8 1/2 favorites. Of course, these are the same guys who […]

Look – I can usually figure out something to focus the column on, I swear. Positive or negative, there’s usually an aspect of the previous game, something noteworthy going on that week or maybe a memory/anecdote the current opponent brings out. More than one when it comes to Oklahoma; I got some company there, amirite? […]

Mike: Are we over last week’s debacle yet? Patrick: I’ve moved on. Jarek: Luckily for me I haven’t had the time to think about it or vent. I’ve gained two kids and lost a tooth since last week, so I’m ready for Northwestern. Andy: It was hard to watch in person, as was their crowd […]

For those who want to know if the Huskers are better than they showed last Friday night and are ready to be a much more physical team in terms blocking and tackling with a purpose, answers should be quickly forthcoming over Saturday brunch against a Northwestern squad who will resemble Minnesota in many ways. Or […]

The final five games on Nebraska’s slate are Northwestern, Southern Cal, UCLA, Penn State and Iowa. Before the Minnesota game, many people opined on Twitter/X and other social media that winning out was very possible. After the 24-6 drubbing, those opinions whiplashed 180 degrees into bowl eligibility being in danger. What thoughts would a survey […]

Nebraska volleyball is finally back home and is slated to play more than one home match in a weekend. Finally. It seems like they have been on the road more than at home this season. While they probably enjoy road matches, it is always good to be back at the Bob. The Huskers are riding […]

Wow, it’s crazy that we had another bye week so soon. I mean there was definitely not a game last week, so another bye week must be what that was. These Huskers are going to be refreshed and motivated when the Wildcats come to Memorial Stadium on Saturday. #1 PROTECTING THE QUARTERBACK It’s pretty hard […]
