I have done a longer intro in the past, however, starting this week I decided to separate out softball thoughts and stories into a separate TWIS notes article – CLICK HERE if you missed the initial flight yesterday. The Huskers haven’t played Michigan State in conference play since 2022 when they travelled to east Lansing […]

Nebraska fans have always showed up. It is kind of what we do. We take over stadiums all of the time. You can go back to 2000 when Nebraska took over Notre Dame. We routinely take over Colorado. We set records with volleyball attendance. Even this year in the Nebraska basketball game against Oklahoma in […]
Tonight on the Five Heart Podcast, bring your party hats and noise makers because it will be a party environment after the Nebraska Men’s Basketball Team demolished Troy in the first round of the 2026 NCAA Tournament.

Introducing TWIS Notes! (One Time Intro) From 1977-2008, in its original incarnation, there was a show called TWIB (This Week in Baseball) Notes with Mel Allen. It was basically your only baseball highlight reel, a half-hour show with clips of the week’s games along with fun facts and unusual plays. For a deeper dive check […]
Our beloved Nebraska Cornhuskers finally get their first ever NCAA basketball tourney win with a smashing defeat of Troy 76-47. It wasn’t close. Nebraska was in this command of this game pretty much from about two-thirds of the way through the first half until the end. It’s a win for Kent Pavelka. The guy has […]
FIRST HALF ANALYSIS: This one started out almost completely opposite of what the “norm” was. Troy, who only shoots 30% from deep on the season, hit 3 of their first 4 attempts. The Huskers meanwhile missed their first 4. The Huskers would start to create havoc defensively though, as the Trojans committed 3 turnovers in […]
Brought to you by FanDuel! FanDuel Sportsbook Are there sports wagering aficionados out there who take their betting cues from public opinion? Fine, probably not too many, but we asked you what you thought anyway. Based on a spread with the Huskers as -13.5 point favorites and an Over/Under total of 137.5, what combination would […]

I woke up this morning after what seemed like an eternity of tossing and turning. The dreams, nightmares and everything in between as I look forward to the Men’s Basketball team playing in the NCAA Tournament. I have had a tremendous amount of fun writing for them this year here at Corn Nation, and I […]
Well that was fun and I can say that without being sarcastic. What seems like the first time in a long time, Nebraska played a full game. Offensively it seemed like everything was falling, especially in the second half. Defensively the suffocated Richmond’s offense and really made to hard to get any sort of scoring […]
In front of a vocal group of Husker fans, probably on their way to cheer on the basketball team another 2 hours to the south in OKC, the baseball team sent them packing with as much good mojo (shout-out Mojo Hagge!) as they could. After a 8-1 win on Tuesday, Bolt and Co. swept the […]
This is a play-in game. This is to get into the NCAA tournament. Help me understand. Nebraska women’s basketball has an absolute young phenom in Britt Prince. They’ve had a decent season, although they’ve shown the ability to collapse down the stretch, which is very disappointing. Even though they’ve been a decent team, they’re not […]
In their continued effort to figure out a tournament format that Will Bolt and the Huskers can’t win, the Big Ten Conference has announced its 3rd format in as many years. The Big Ten knows the stigma that the southern teams and selection committee have when looking at its teams, so it tries to protect […]

In the summer of 2021, the United States Supreme Court issued a unanimous 9-0 ruling in NCAA v. Alston that shook the foundation of college athletics. Justice Neil Gorsuch’s majority opinion didn’t open with a modern quarterback or a viral social media star. It opened with a Yale tackle from 1904. His name was James […]
In what has become a good border rivalry over the years – Nebraska holds a 29-26 edge – the Cornhuskers took on a completely new Shocker team from the one they faced last season, thanks to portal and juco transfers. The boys from Kansas are having a solid start to the season sitting at 15-6 and […]
The Husker women are part of the First Four in the NCAA tournament and take on the Richmond Spiders. This is the third straight tourney appearance for the Huskers – and also for Richmond. The Spiders are a perimter-focused team with two players that rank in the top-20 in the nation in three-pointers made; Rachel […]

Are you ready for March Madness? I am excited to watch both the men and the women’s teams in their games. I hope the women get a chance at redemption for their season and are able to capitalize on this opportunity. The men need to get that win. I believe this is the team that […]

After setting a slew of program records a year ago at the NCAA Championships, Nebraska heads into this year’s tournament positioned to earn a team trophy for the second year in a row. Last season, Nebraska set a program record for points scored with 117 on the way to its program-best 2nd-place finish — behind […]
