Report Card: Huskers 49, Ohio Bobcats 21
The first half of Nebraska’s game with Ohio could be summed up with one word: BRUTAL. Brutal mistakes, brutal heat. Quite a few fans bailed at halftime, and I couldn’t blame anyone for heading out in these conditions. (I drained nearly a quart and a half of water in the FIRST half alone.) But when […]
The Big Ten’s Secret Magic Clock Bailed Out Michigan
Michigan beat Western Michigan 13-12 Saturday night on a Hail Mary that never should have been thrown. If you’re a Nebraska fan, you knew how it was going to end the moment you saw the number one appear on that clock. Here’s the sequence. Bryce Underwood launched one into the back of the end zone. […]

THIS ARTICLE BROUGHT TO YOU BY FANDUEL(CLICK HERE to check out FanDuel’s Sportsbook) Last week, we settled forever the rift among Husker fans of Sellout Streak – Yes or No?

HUSKERS FOOTBALL Recap – The Lads Pull It Together: NEBRASKA 49 Ohio 21
Come halftime, the Huskers had battled back from an early deficit to take a 14-13 lead, but you didn’t have to be Nostradamus to know what was waiting on social media. And apologies to Jashear Whittington who might not yet be aware his cleansing of excess Gatorade made him a Twitter star around lunchtime. Not […]
Nebraska Post Reaction: Huskers Win 49-21 – Was It Good Enough?
Nebraska vs Ohio: 49-21, and a Freshman Named Jamal Rule Thee plays into Nebraska vs Ohio, I was ready to throw the whole season in the ditch. Ohio’s first snap was a 68-yard catch and run. Seventy-one seconds later the Bobcats led 7-0. They scored on their next two possessions as well, and the sun […]

HUSKERS vs. THE Ohio U. Pre-Game Vibes
Week 0 may be one of the silliest terms there is – my guys and gals, it’s Week 1 – but we all wish we were playing in it last weekend, didn’t we? It wasn’t just fans; players and coaches were ready to go as well. Said Coach Holgorsen, “You know, I’ve been on this […]
Nebraska vs Ohio – 2026 Opening GAME THREAD
Welcome to the 2026 Nebraska Football season!!!! It’s been a wild off season. Lord knows how many lawsuits there are still taking place. And last night was the perhaps culmination of another one in which LSU tried rostering former NFL players. LSU and Lane Kiffin blinked. Matt Rule said it’s his best team at Nebraska. […]

FRIDAY Night College Football Game Thread (9/4/26)
Okay, last night was fun. Rutgers came out with a whimper and lost on their home field to a UMass team that was on a 16 game losing streak. Schiano, the one time savior of the Scarlet Knights, might not be able to do it the second time around. The Minutemen looked like world beaters […]
Nebraska Football: My Game-by-Game Prediction for the 2026 Season
Last year I did my game-by-game prediction for the 2025 season and was batting 1.000 until Nebraska was embarrassed by Iowa at the end of the season. I had picked Nebraska to go 8-4 but instead they went 7-5. The game that flipped the 2025 season was the USC game in Lincoln. Nebraska was leading […]
Memorial Stadium Food: Here’s New Huskers Football Chow for 2026
When Aramark Sports + Entertainment took over as the Memorial Stadium food and beverage provider prior to last season, they quickly showed a flair for stepping up the game day chow game while keeping all of the traditional game day faves like Runzas and Frank’s Hot Dogs on the menu. Well, 2026 brings a new […]

Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: Ohio
It’s your favorite time of year! You know, when I let you know why Nebraska is going to dominate on Saturday in an insanely accurate way. I mean, I was 7-6 last year that’s over 50%, it’s really not bad. Majority rules, right? Last year doesn’t matter though, because I am about to BLOW YOU […]
Beware Ohio Say Huskers Coaches and Players: “They Ain’t Coming In Here Scared”
First of all, I’m not new to the press dances and puffing up outmatched opponents prior to non-conference rollover games. But the coaches and players at least sounded pretty sincere discussing the Ohio Bobcats, showing more animation than, say, the usual rushed, monotone responses when trying to explain why Houston Christian was going to be […]
Five Heart Podcast: Nebraska Hosts Ohio this Saturday
The Five Heart Podcast returns for game week as Nebraska prepares to open the 2026 football season against Ohio. Greg, Fred, and Minnie discuss the growing optimism surrounding the Huskers after a long offseason, while acknowledging the familiar skepticism among fans.

Thursday Night College Football Game Thread (9/3/26)
Hey folks, welcome back to another fun filled Thursday night lineup. We start the evening with Umass at Rutgers at 5pm cst. It is not the most intriguing game on the docket as neither one of these teams should be anything special this year, so let’s move on. The first one that catches my eye […]
Corn Nation 20th Anniversary Replay: The 15 People You Hate To Tailgate With
As we celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Corn Nation, I realized when Jon published the article commemorating it that 2026 marked my 15th trip around the sun with this fine crowd. When i realized this, I was filled with , “Good Christ, where did the goddamned time go?” sense of dread. But once I washed […]
Tay Ellis Moved Across the Country for Nebraska. Now He’s No Longer a Husker
There are plenty of strange stories in college football recruiting, but Tay Ellis’ decision to decommit from Nebraska has to rank among the more surprising ones. The wide receiver had already done something that most recruits don’t do when he committed to the Huskers. Ellis wasn’t simply a high school prospect from Texas who picked […]
Lane Kiffin Made the SEC the Enemy. That’s the Point.
We are one week into the 2026 college football season and Lane Kiffin has already taken over the news cycle, which is the most Lane Kiffin thing possible. He’s at LSU. He’s bringing back NFL players — guys who didn’t stick on a roster or a practice squad — and three or four of them […]
NEBRASKA (0-0) vs. Ohio U. (0-0) – The Slate Is Clean Until 11AM Saturday: HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN
Frank Solich will be making another appearance in Memorial Stadium when he takes midfield pre-game as the honorary coin-tosser before the only two schools at which he head-coached go at it on a steamy Saturday morning to kick off another season of Nebraska Cornhuskers football. But he can march right back out that gate as […]
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball Wins, Clippers Tagged and More
Yesterday I turned 39 years old. If 40 is still considered “over the hill”, then I’m currently sitting atop of it like a Soapbox Derby car waiting for the race to start. All that is left is going downhill at full speed with no brakes and nothing but chaos ahead. Don’t believe me? Watch this… […]
Husker Volleyball Makes Quick Work of SDSU in Sweep – #1 Nebraska 3 – SDSU 0
Nebraska 3 – South Dakota State 0: 25-18, 25-20, 25-15 I do have something to admit to everyone….. I didn’t pay the $10 to watch the stream. Although I hate missing a Husker volleyball match, I wasn’t going to pay for their streaming network. I already pay for every streaming service under the sun so […]
