Corn Flakes: It Was a Good Husker Weekend and NFL Draft

Nebraska had another great weekend with both baseball and softball wins and a spring volleyball win over Northern Colorado. And of course the NFL Draft was on and Emmett Johnson went in the 5th round. I don’t know about you, but I expected him to go higher. What did you think? Nebraska Johansson, Cohen take […]

Husker Wrestling: Incoming FR Lincoln Sledzianowski Impresses at U20 US Open

Despite having just two wrestlers find the podium at the U20 US Open, Nebraska’s young talent was on display this weekend with a number of wrestlers posting impressive performances in both Greco-Roman and freestyle.

Worthley’s First College Dinger Leads Nebraska to 3-0 Win Over Illini

Considering that both teams demonstrated offensive firepower the past couple of games, today’s 3-0 Nebraska win was out of character for this series.  It happened in large part to outstanding pitching from starting pitchers and the respective bullpens. Gavin Blachowicz rebounded from his rough start last weekend and pitched into the seventh inning, giving up six […]

Cornhuskers Turn the Tables on the Illini, Winning 12-5

After a slow start last night, the Cornhusker offense did not waste much time finding its groove today.  The bottom half of the lineup teed off on Illini righty starter Mitch Dye in the second inning, putting three runs up on the score board and Nebraska never looked back. Jett Buck led it off with a […]

Our beloved Emmett Johnson was selected in the fifth round, the 161st pick overall by the Kansas City Chiefs. I know the Chiefs fans out there are thrilled that Emmitt is going to be on their team. On the other hand there are those who hate the Chefs. Are you going to start rooting for […]

Nebraska’s Drafted Players Tell the Tale of a Struggling Program

The NFL Draft is supposed to be a celebration of a program’s ability to develop talent, a moment where years of recruiting, coaching, and player growth culminate on one of football’s biggest stages. For Nebraska, however, it has increasingly become an uncomfortable mirror. As this year’s draft unfolds, Nebraska players are once again largely absent […]

Nebraska Baseball Can’t Overcome Early Big Inning at Illinois

The Friday night starts have been an issue for the Huskers of late. Really only the Indiana series opener has gone the way Nebraska wanted out of the last 6 Fridays. They’ve had some big time comebacks, but living that life will eventually get you burned by a less talented team. “I didn’t have us […]

Nebraska Regents Approve Memorial Stadium Rebuild

As expected, the Nebraska Board of Regents approved the Big Red Rebuild Project, the $600 million Memorial Stadium renovation that will begin in 2027 or sometime.
