Live Discussion – Nebraska vs Iowa
I am so hungover today. It’s unbelievable. It’s not what you’re thinking. It’s a pie hangover. So much pie. There’s pumpkin pie and then there’s my absolute favorite pecan pie. I still have a lot of pie left. And I would love to have it taste so much better by beating Iowa today. If we […]
The 24 HOUR RULE: No One Expects This – That’s Why It’s Time
I arrived in Lincoln a few moments ago and it is just November college football as hell down here. And today, of course, we are visited once again by the monosyllabic, slack-jawed denizens of Iowa City, Iowa, and other parts of that state. If they were insufferable before, winning 9 of the last 10 in […]
Week 14 Predictions: Huskers vs. Hawkeyes
Mike: After last Saturday night in Unhappy Valley, I have this feeling that Black Friday is approaching “must-win” status for Matt Rhule’s team. Getting to eight wins and not losing to Iowa is progress. Jon: It’s very clear that there’s progress. We are going to a bowl again this year and we don’t have to […]
NEBRASKA (7-4) vs. Iowa (7-4) – This Madness Must End: HOW TO WATCH
LINCOLN, NE PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FOR 11/27/25 Obi-wan Kenobi had no idea when he was informing Luke of the dangers of Mos Eisley spaceport that he had also created the perfect way of describing Iowa City as well as the Hawkeye fan denizens who infest the far reaches of their state. Please attempt to treat […]

Five Heart Podcast: Nebraska vs Io_a on Black Friday…Fueled with Rage!
Look kids, this is where the rubber meets the road. It’s Black Friday. It’s Rivalry Week. It’s the HyVee Heroes Trophy. Dammit, I hate that trophy. I hate Io_a. I’m developing a healthy distrust of holidays in general, and you edge lords of the internet are starting to win me over to your side in […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. The criticism rained hard again after the Huskers’ 37-10 shellacking in Happy Valley. However, improvement has […]
Nebraska Football: Flush it and move on to Iowa
Sometimes, things are just so bad you are better off just flushing it, burning it, forgetting it and move on. This, ladies and gentlemen, is of those times. I know Penn State had a 4-6 record. I’m well aware they were #2 in the preseason poll, bringing back playoff caliber talent. I know we looked […]
The Result of Nebraska Football’s Black Friday Game Against Iowa is Not a Referendum on Progress
Today Steven Sipple of Husker Online wrote about the importance of this upcoming game against Iowa for Nebraska football. He makes some good points about the recent dominance of Iowa over Nebraska including six straight losses in Lincoln. However, we act like it is only Iowa that has had Nebraska’s number over the past decade. […]
Nebraska Enters Black Friday as a Home Underdog Against Iowa
Nebraska returns to Lincoln on Black Friday looking to steady the ship, but oddsmakers aren’t buying in. After being ragdolled by a punishing Penn State team, the Huskers enter the short week as a 6.5-point underdog to Iowa on their home field, according to FanDuel. It’s not a shocking line given Nebraska’s ongoing struggles stopping […]
Win by One: Nebraska Basketball Beats a Good Winthrop Team 80-73
This might be short but I warned everybody that would listen. This was going to be a hard fought game. Why? Well this Winthrop team was leading #21 ranked Arkansas with a little more than a minute left in the game and it took a flurry from the Razorbacks to hold them off. Plus four […]
Nebraska Women’s Basketball Survives Against Virginia 91-82
A stagnant start, a hot streak, a close finish. This game had everything you wanted in a tournament championship. Unless, of course, you’re me who gets way too invested in this game and team. No lead makes me comfortable and my neighbors definitely hate me for acting like I’m coaching. Anyway, Nebraska comes away the […]

Nebraska vs Iowa: Why EVERYONE Hates Iowa (And Why This Game Matters)
Nebraska vs Iowa: The Annual Torture Session We Call a Football Game There’s something uniquely awful about Nebraska vs Iowa. It’s not just that we lose these games—it’s HOW we lose them. Iowa sits there with 10 points, waiting for us to make a mistake. And we do. Every single time. Last year? Dylan Raiola […]

Nebraska WBB moves to 7-0 with 80-57 win vs Purdue Fort Wayne
If you looked at the school name of Purdue Fort Wayne and thought this would be a cakewalk, you would have been wrong. While the final score says Nebraska won easily, the play-by-play says otherwise. The Huskers clung to a seven-point lead at one point in the fourth quarter but pulled away late to make […]

Saturday Was a Disaster – the Huskers & Matt Rhule Must Own It & Turn Focus to Iowa
“Yeah, absolutely. Thought we were prepared. I thought we were ready. Put that, you know, put that purely on me.” – Matt Rhule when asked if he was surprised by outcome of the game. Some will want to chew over being on the wrong end of another sound thrashing in a conference game, and honestly […]

Corn Nation Overreaction: What an Abysmal Showing at Penn State
I don’t even know what to write for this description. The same issues that have plagued the Huskers all season came up and bit Nebraska in vicious form Saturday night in State College. Nebraska didn’t take the early points (again), the opponent marched down the field 98 yards and absolutely demoralized the Huskers in the […]
