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 […]

NEBRASKA vs. North Dakota Pre-Game Vibes: Focus, Win Big and Move On
Some folks, both Husker fans and not Husker fans, grumbled when the ‘Skers dropped Tennessee from the 2026 and 2027 schedules a year ago. The good news is we are officially done with games with weaker opponents for ‘26 later this evening. The final foe is North Dakota and they happily made the trip down […]
Husker Volleyball Faces FGCU for the First Ever Matchup on Sunday
After a record setting night in Devaney on Friday, the Huskers will look to close out the Ameritas Players Challenge with a 2-0 record and, hopefully, their 1st sweep of the weekend. The Huskers hosted #25 North Carolina on Friday night and what looked like what as going to be a sweep, turned into a […]
Five Games Which Mattered Last Week: Texas Finally Wins a Big One & Oregon Goes on Red Alert
With one more week of mostly non-conference play remaining, last weekend did not have a shortage of games to choose from. I found five with five different reasons for making the cut today including a Top 5 battle, a major upset, a minor upset plus redemption, a hard lesson about taking hype videos a little […]
Early Games Thread – Anything Interesting Going ON? -Game Thread
I like college football, but when you look at today’s slate of games, it’s really hard to find something that might be interesting to watch. Therefore I have included all a lot of lower division games. The big game of the day is LSU-Old Miss. Possibly for the number of riots and fisticuffs that could […]
Week 3 Predictions: Fighting Hawks at Huskers
Mike: Brides insisting on a fall Saturday for a wedding really should look into week three. My goodness, this week’s schedule is simply craptastic. Patrick: When all else fails, look to the FCS Andy: For those of you who actually do watch the 1-AA title tournament and don’t just tell everyone you do, remember that […]
Husker Volleyball Gets 1st Win of Ameritas Challenge: #1 Nebraska 3 – #25 North Carolina 1
Nebraska 3-North Carolina 1: 25-14, 20-25, 25-21, 25-10 On the opening night of the Ameritas Players Challenge, the Huskers hosted the North Carolina Tar Heels first. Another ranked team to test them before B1G play starts. While yes they did rise to the occasion, there were still moments of “what is going on” that are […]

Three Big-Time 2028 Receivers Coming to Lincoln
The quality of the wide receivers expected in Lincoln makes this weekend particularly interesting. Nebraska isn’t simply bringing in developmental prospects to watch the North Dakota game. Three of the visitors are already established blue-chip national recruits in the 2028 class, with offer lists that show just how much competition the Huskers will face. Malachi […]
NEBRASKA (2-0) vs. North Dakota (3-0) – The Colandrea Express Rolls On: HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN
We’ve been well-warned to watch out for North Dakota, even though this is the hockey one, not the football one. They’re averaging 50 points a game. They move the ball for 540 yards/gm, 251 by ground and 289 by air. In two of their games they reached 41 and 42 points by halftime. Quarterback Jerry […]

This week the undefeated North Dakota Fighting Hawks are coming to Lincoln, and Nebraska will hand them their first loss.

Friday Flakes: One Big Reason Not to Be Concerned About Nebraska’s Low Sack Numbers – Yet
At this point through two games Nebraska’s defense has combined for four total sacks. That is a real low number, especially going against teams like Ohio and Bowling Green. It also does not help that the defensive line was a major concern coming into the season. So four sacks through two games should be a […]
Five Heart Podcast: Nebraska’s Last Non-Con is Saturday Against North Dakota
Nebraska enters its third game of the season at 2-0, with North Dakota next on the schedule. The Five Heart Podcast crew believes the Fighting Hawks deserve more respect than a typical early-season opponent. North Dakota is averaging more than 50 points per game, has a productive quarterback in Jerry Kaminski, a strong offensive line, […]
Husker Volleyball Hosts North Carolina on the Last Weekend of Non-Conference Matches
Husker volleyball is coming off of a sweep of in-state rival #20 Creighton on Wednesday night and now return to the Bob Devaney Center for the remainder of their season. While PBA is fun to play in, Devaney is their home and is an electric environment. This year has Devaney has been a little too […]
The 24 HOUR RULE: Why Not Let Cut NFL Players Back Into NCAA Football?
It’s probably not just blind luck that Lane Kiffin so often finds himself playing the villain – sometimes self-inflicted, sometimes intentional and sometimes a combination of both, and, no matter the method, he always seems to range from leaning into it to downright relishing it. His history of such moments includes, but is not limited […]
Illinois Fighting Illini 2026 Football Preview
Some of the more headscratching losses over Nebraska’s lost decade have come at the hands of the Illini. Start with Mike Riley’s throw-the-ball-into-a-gale debacle in 2015, the “field a punt at the goal line” mistakes of 2021 or the Dylan Raiola in full retreat overtime offense in 2024. Almost as bad as against Minnesota; we […]
HUSKERS HAPPY HOUR: Week 2 Shows Improvement, On To North Dakota
Episode 2 of the Huskers Happy Hour began with chat about just how the weather went from “old folks will leave in ambulances is 100% guaranteed” to “THIS IS PERFECT FOOTBALL WEATHER” in one single week. And that sent us straight into talk about Owen Chambliss’ getting to make his Husker debut and another amazing […]
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball Wins, Rothstein Buys and More
I did not get the opportunity to get down to the Haymarket area in Lincoln yesterday. From the looks of it, man I must have missed out on some fun. Between the happy hour for all Nebrasketball fans to celebrate our first ever NCAA Tournament wins last season, to having Nebraska Volleyball taking on Creighton […]

This was not the five set match up that we have become accustom to seeing between the Huskers and the Blue Jays in the past few years.

The Athletic is Reporting that Nebraska Football Should be Better and That is Great News
The good news? Nebraska can swing with the big boys. The bad news? They are underperforming based off of their estimated NIL spending. The Athletic published a report that estimated the NIL spending of 68 college football programs based off of investigative reporting with over 70 sources which included “coaches, general managers, personnel directors, athletic […]
Nebraska Football: The Early Season Eye Test
The heart will tell you one thing, the brain another, but it’s the eyes that are the mediator between the two. Somewhere between the feel (heart) and the thought (brain), the eyes will tell both what they need to know. They are the mutual friend to both parties despite their differences. In every sport, trust […]
