Michigan State Q&A – Questions for Sparty!
We have the first Big Ten opponent in the 2026 football season. Michigan State. The Spartans! With that, we have O from the SB Nation Michigan State site The Only Colors. I have asked them… a few questions about what to expect from Sparty this weekend! What was your first response when you heard Pat […]
NEBRASKA (3-0) vs. Michigan St (2-1) – Now We Begin To Find Out: HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN
Many Husker fans are marking the next two games in the win column and looking forward to match-up of undefeateds when defending national champion Indiana rolls into Lincoln. And, no, this isn’t going to be some tear about focus. Focus is not a fan’s responsibility, only the team themselves. We can speculate and look ahead […]
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball Sweeps, B1G Awaits and More
Well, in case you haven’t thought just how fast this sports season has gone for Nebraska, let me help you out. A coworker of mine decided to sing this and it got stuck in my head. I’m forwarding it to you like an old chain letter email. You are welcome. The absolute madness of this […]
#1 Huskers Make Quick Work of Missouri
While not under the lights at Wrigley field Nebraska took on Missouri for their Big Ten/SEC Challenge make up game. They did wear those pinstripe jerseys though. Nebraska hit .380 on the night, while holding Missouri to just .020. The Huskers also tallied eight blocks on the night. Andi Jackson contributed to six blocks and […]
Nebraska Football: Can the Huskers Have a Winning B1G Record?
Matt Rhule and company have had a giant uphill battle since coming to Nebraska. Of course, it all started with the firing of Bo Pelini by Shawn Eichorst. Each passing day that we struggled I went from laughing at what Pelini called him to firmly standing behind Pelini’s point. Holy cow, what a lot of […]

HUSKER HAPPY HOUR: Big 10 Play Is Here & Does This Husker Team Feel Different?
Last night’s episode of Husker Happy Hour was again a blast & we had a ball as Big 10 Conference play is finally just a few days away. One of the big questions facing us was – with no serious challenges yet, does this team feel different than others as Big 10 play commences? We […]
Nebraska Special Teams Aren’t the Problem, and Neither Is Archie Wilson
Nebraska beat North Dakota 34-7, finished the non-conference schedule 3-0, and hit almost every offensive target we set for the 2026 season. So of course the loudest conversation online is about Nebraska special teams, and specifically about the punter. We’ll get there, and I have thoughts. First, the numbers. The offense cleared nearly every bar […]
#1 Nebraska takes on Missouri in Reschuled Wrigley Field Match
The Nebraska Cornhuskers will take on the Missouri Tigers on Wednesday at Bob Devaney Sports Center. You can watch it on Big Ten Network at 6:00p.m. This match is rescheduled from the Wrigley Field match that was suspended due to a slippery court. The teams have decided to start back at 0-0 and hopefully we […]
Week 3 Cobs: Trash Talk Backfires, Judas Returns and a Fumble in the End Zone
It’s that time of week again! Let’s spray some beers in the air to celebrate this week’s cob nominations. North Carolina State The most unthinkable thing just happened in college football this past weekend. Texas A&M The Aggies aren’t just playing the SEC bottom feeders this season and the cracks are starting to show. Well […]

For the second time in three years, Nebraska will play its season opener in Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium. The first game of the 2027 season will be against Miami (Ohio) at the home of the Kansas City Chiefs. It will be on Friday, August 27th which was considered week zero before the change by […]
Corn Flakes: Husker Volleyball Still #1, A 30 Year Football Streak, and Pillows
I know we are deep into Husker sports season and there is much to talk about, but I need some pillow recommendations. I’m looking for something that helps with neck and trap pain, works for a side or back sleeper, and isn’t $100. I’d love to hear any suggestions. Nebraska 30 Years Without Being Shut […]
Monday Night Therapy: Huskers vs. Spartans Week 4
Minnie Hunt welcomes Husker Chuck back to Monday Night Therapy to recap Nebraska’s 3-0 start and look ahead to the Huskers’ first Big Ten matchup against Michigan State. While Nebraska handled its first three opponents as expected, Chuck cautions that conference play represents a significant jump in competition and should provide a much better measuring […]
CORN NATION Reacts Survey: Will Our Shot at the Champs Have National Eyes on Lincoln?
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. The Nebraska Cornhuskers are currently undefeated after a 3-0 start against two MAC opponents and North Dakota, an FCS school. With that accomplished, they can safely […]

Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: Jamal Rule Rising, Jacory Barney Sliding, Justin Evans Still No. 1
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. Or maybe it will. This Power Ranking list will be a combination of the most important, most impactful, a recent contribution, […]
CORN FLAKES: Big 10 Football Coming Up, Is Huskers Volleyball Doomed, Nate the Great
””Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.“ – Ferris Bueller And what more proof do you need of this than the fact football and volleyball are already sailing by us? We spend all spring and summer massively anticipating these two sports and are […]
Corn Nation Overreaction: Huskers Start 3-0, MSU Next
Jon Johnston put out a video this morning wondering if this is Nebraska’s best team ever. At least, that’s the headline. It’s much more captivating than “Huskers Start 3-0, MSU Next.” As of this writing, I haven’t watched the video yet. This is probably the best team in the Matt Rhule era. And the team […]
Report Card: Huskers 34, North Dakota Fighting Hawks 7
Nebraska closed out what I call the exhibition schedule of the 2026 season successfully with a fairly dominant 34-7 victory over FCS #6 North Dakota. I say “fairly” because the score was a lot closer than the stats indicated. When Nebraska outgains an opponent 493 to 205 yards, you probably should expect the score to […]
CORN NATION REACTS Poll Results: Folks, We Have a Tie!
I think I’m going to keep publishing these results on Sunday. Why? Because college football is so damn wacky, I like to be talking about the poll results after the weekend games have been played. This week, the Husker question was for you to choose which area of their 2026 game is your favorite or […]
Husker Volleyball Goes 4 Sets Today to Get Win Against FGCU: #1 Nebraska 3 – FGCU 1
Nebraska 3-FGCU 0: 25-10, 25-17, 25-27, 25-14 Today was a good day for the Huskers bench as DBK was able to put almost their entire roster into the match. It was a good way to close out the Ameritas Players Challenge and it was nice to see what other girls can do before B1G play […]
Maybe It’s the Colandrea Effect. We’ll Find Out in East Lansing and The Morning After
49-21, 56-7 and 34-7. Those are the scores for Nebraska’s first three games of the season against admittedly lower-level opponents. Many have said that Nebraska simply did what they were supposed to do. Which is correct but that by itself is why I feel much better about this Nebraska football team going into conference play […]
HUSKERS Grind Up the Hawks, Now Look to the Big 10: NEBRASKA 34 North Dakota 7
The scoreboard didn’t show a big ol’ 56-7 score, but the Huskers grabbed control early and never let go. And when the final gun sounded they had won 34-7 without ever being challenged, seriously or otherwise. The final yardage numbers were 496-205 Nebraska with the Fighting Hawks not crossing the 200 yard mark until the […]
Nebraska Squashes North Dakota 34-7 To Finish Pre-Season 3-0
Nebraska football finishes the nonconference season 3-0. The Huskers beat North Dakota 34-7 on Saturday night in Memorial Stadium, and the word I kept coming back to while watching was crisp. That first quarter was the best-executed stretch of football we’ve seen this season. Two drives, two touchdowns, 14 points, and North Dakota never looked […]
Halftime Check-in: Points Are Thin but the Huskers Are Rolling: NEBRASKA 17 North Dakota 0
269-68. That’s the Husker lead in total yards at halftime, and it’s probably a credit to North Dakota playing mostly mistake-free ball that the scoreboard doesn’t look worse. The Husker defense basically shut down the Hawks high-octane vs. lousy opponents offense, and after a 32-yard completion from Jerry Kamenski to Deng Deng, North Dakota managed […]
