The Rest of the Day Games Thread
We will have a volleyball thread later, but this is your rest of the games thread. Here are the rest of the games today!!!!
Nebraska’s Grit Beats Northwestern’s Rock Fighting 28-21
Nebraska is 6-2 and bowl eligible in October for the first time since 2016. Let that sink in for a moment. Was it pretty? God no. Was it another heart attack-inducing, PTSD-triggering, one-score game that aged me 83 years? Absolutely. But we won 28-21, and that’s all that matters right now. I said it after […]
HUSKERS FOOTBALL Halftime Recap – & 2nd Half Game Thread!: NEBRASKA 7 Northwestern 6
And here we are again. This time the Huskers lead 7-6 instead of trailing by that score, but, just like last Friday, the game has been turned into a vacant lot mud fight by their opponent, which one would think will play right into Northwestern’s hands, especially given how Nebraska reacted to a similar situation […]
Nebraska vs Northwestern – The “God Help Us” Game Thread
I’m predicting a high potential for pitchforks and torches after this game. If you’ve seen the commercial where the coach is put on the hot seat in Fanville, then you get the idea of what I’m talking about. Except that our coach isn’t sponsored by Dr. Pepper. I woke up this morning with my PTSD […]
NEBRASKA vs Northwestern Pre-Game Vibes: Gut Check Time on a True Fall Saturday
It weirdly seems like there’s still a contingent out there thinking we should beat Northwestern by 14-17 points despite the fact this is a 5-2 team, 3-1 in conference, on a 4-game win streak. The bookies believe this as well with the Huskers as -8 1/2 favorites. Of course, these are the same guys who […]
THE 24-HOUR RULE: Some Overcast HUSKERS Game Day Thoughts
Look – I can usually figure out something to focus the column on, I swear. Positive or negative, there’s usually an aspect of the previous game, something noteworthy going on that week or maybe a memory/anecdote the current opponent brings out. More than one when it comes to Oklahoma; I got some company there, amirite? […]
Predictions: NW Wildcats at NU Huskers
Mike: Are we over last week’s debacle yet? Patrick: I’ve moved on. Jarek: Luckily for me I haven’t had the time to think about it or vent. I’ve gained two kids and lost a tooth since last week, so I’m ready for Northwestern. Andy: It was hard to watch in person, as was their crowd […]
Husker Wrestling: Everything You Need to Know About Today’s Wrestle-Offs
Nebraska held its annual wrestle-offs Friday at the Hendricks Training Complex in front of a wrestling room full of fans. Here is some of the action before we dive into things. Now, here are the weight-by-weight notes: 125 pounds Nebraska’s three 125-pounders competed in a round robin with a starting spot on the line. Redshirt […]
Nebraska Opens Northwestern Weekend with a Sweep in Volleyball
Nebraska 3, Northwestern 0 – 25-17, 25-13, 25-17 Nebraska keeps their sweep streak alive as they beat Northwestern tonight in a quick match. It only took about an hour and half for the Huskers to come away with yet another win and to continue their undefeated bid this season. After 2 weeks out, Skyler Pierce […]
NEBRASKA (5-2) vs. Northwestern (5-2) – Here’s a Quick Guts Test: HOW TO WATCH
For those who want to know if the Huskers are better than they showed last Friday night and are ready to be a much more physical team in terms blocking and tackling with a purpose, answers should be quickly forthcoming over Saturday brunch against a Northwestern squad who will resemble Minnesota in many ways. Or […]

Nebraska Reacts Survey – How the Huskers & the O-Line Will Finish Out
The final five games on Nebraska’s slate are Northwestern, Southern Cal, UCLA, Penn State and Iowa. Before the Minnesota game, many people opined on Twitter/X and other social media that winning out was very possible. After the 24-6 drubbing, those opinions whiplashed 180 degrees into bowl eligibility being in danger. What thoughts would a survey […]
Nebraska Volleyball Set to Play a Pair of Home Matches This Weekend
Nebraska volleyball is finally back home and is slated to play more than one home match in a weekend. Finally. It seems like they have been on the road more than at home this season. While they probably enjoy road matches, it is always good to be back at the Bob. The Huskers are riding […]
Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: Northwestern
Wow, it’s crazy that we had another bye week so soon. I mean there was definitely not a game last week, so another bye week must be what that was. These Huskers are going to be refreshed and motivated when the Wildcats come to Memorial Stadium on Saturday. #1 PROTECTING THE QUARTERBACK It’s pretty hard […]
Friday Flakes: Will Compton Lays Out Exactly What Is Going On With Nebraska
This week on Bussin with the Boys’ podcast with Josh Pate, Nebraska’s own Will Compton took some time to explain what is exactly going on with Nebraska. While I did not want to put the whole quote on there. I think you should give it a listen. Insightful stuff. Best I could do this Friday […]
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball Returns Home and the Craziest Week I’ll Ever Have
I will never have a crazier 7 days in my life. If I do, I look forward to the absolute roller coaster ride that it will entail. It all started last Thursday afternoon, when my wife called me and told me that she was being sent to the ER. Her blood pressure had risen to […]
Nebraska Wrestling: Huskers Secure Two Upper-Weight Commitments in Two Days
Nebraska first received a commitment on Tuesday from Jason Singer — a 2026 Big-Boarder from powerhouse program Faith Christian Academy in Pennsylvania. Then on Wednesday, another Big-Boarder committed to Nebraska for its 2027 class — Wyatt Hanssen out of Utah. Singer was previously committed to Lehigh before flipping to the Huskers. Wrestling for arguably the […]
Nebraska Football: Can We Just Play on Saturday’s?
In another typical non-Saturday game, Nebraska seemed to be off on its clock. I understand the “tradition” of the Day after Thanksgiving game against Iowa, but can we stop playing on Thursday’s and Friday’s? Nebraska is 5-7 on non-Saturday games since 2020. Yes, I’m including all games against Iowa, as they are not on a […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Quite a bit has changed in the last 11 days, has it not? Why, what happened […]
Nebraska Wrestling: Huskers Hosting Wrestle-Offs Friday at 4 p.m. — And It’s Open to Fans
Nebraska announced on Monday that this season’s wrestle-offs will be held Friday at the Hendricks Training Complex at 4 p.m. in the wrestling room — open to fans for free with parking in the lot located north of Innovation Campus. Brackets for the wrestle-offs haven’t been released, but that didn’t stop me from projecting what […]
Monday Night Therapy LIVE Broken? Maybe. Beaten? Never. GBR FOREVER
In this episode of Monday Night Therapy, hosts Minnie and Fred open the “Husker Hope Hotline” to process Nebraska’s humiliating 24–6 loss to Minnesota. The duo describe the defeat as one of the worst under Matt Rhule, marked by offensive line breakdowns, poor communication, and a lack of grit that contradicted the program’s supposed progress. […]
HUSKERS HAPPY HOUR: Well, Here’s That Adversity Again
Join us Tuesday night at 8pm CST for this week’s episode of the Huskers Happy Hour! And we’re not too damn happy at all, are we? Oh no, we’re not. In about 10 days, we’ve gone from that scrappy ball team who owns the 4th quarter and was thinking about 10 wins or so to […]
Week 8 Cobs: Banana Suits, Butt Slaps and AI Slop
It’s that time of the week again. Grab your banana suit and enjoy these cob nominations. Memphis The Tigers were undefeated. The Blazers have an interim head coach. The unthinkable happens. Florida State Seminoles went to The Farm and got whacked. Was the wrong Norvell fired on Sunday? This is a bit embarrassing. Miami Quarterback […]
Corn Flakes: Andi Jackson Named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week and AI Woes
In the past few days I have now googled two different sports related questions and been given wrong answers by the AI response that now comes at the top of every page. The first one was googling the Husker Men’s Basketball game against BYU at 12:30pm on Saturday. According to the AI search BYU had […]
Another Minnesota Performance Saturday & Matt Rhule Says, “I’d Boo Us.”
“I’m making it very clear right now, to our team and to our coaches, what’s expected all this coming Saturday. And if Northwestern is just way better than us, then so be it, right? So be it. But if fans spend their money this week to show up and watch a team diving on the […]
