Friday Night College Football Game Thread (9/18/26)
Well, it’s a light night for college football. There is only 1/2 of an FCS game on. Which, if you have been following at home over the years, I do enjoy. Oh well… Looking at it quickly, Miami at Wake Forest could be a fun starter. Though, I do believe the Hurricanes will not have […]
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 […]
Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: North Dakota
It’s that mid-September UNDEFEATED feeling around here! The Huskers are 2-0 and so am I! This week the undefeated North Dakota Fighting Hawks are coming to Lincoln, and Nebraska will hand them their first loss. These are your reasons why: #1 ANTHONY COLANDREA As this week’s reigning Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week (the […]
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 […]
#1 Nebraska Sweeps #20 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. Nebraska’s defense held Creighton to -0.033 hitting on the night. The Huskers tallied up 47 digs and nine blocks on the night. Creighton ‘s defense also held the […]

#1 Nebraska takes on #20 Creighton. Hope for a squishing of the Blue Jays!
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 […]
HUSKERS FOOTBALL Set To Renew Hostilities Against Notre Dame in 2032-2033
Well, call me Nostradamus, but this didn’t take long at all. And, honestly, the Huskers have already been on it well into the future, but with the schedules for ‘26 and ‘27 currently light on non-conference strength of the Power 4 variety, opponents have crowed about Nebraska dropping Tennessee from their 2026 and 2027 non-conference […]

Week 2 Cobs: Mullets, Crazy Quarterbacks and a Fan Calling Plays
It’s that time of week again! Let’s fire up our tractors as we roll our way through this week’s cob nominations. Oklahoma No Bail Mary needed to beat the Sorry Sooners. Oregon The Ducks roll into Stillwater as 23-point favorites and this is what happens?! Is Oregon’s season already over? Ohio State The Buckeyes just […]
The Nebraska Cornhuskers Have Finally Gotten Old – And That’s a Good Thing
”Get old and stay old.“ It’s one of college sports’, and especially college football’s, main tropes when it comes to success. And one which the Huskers did not follow, for the most part, in Matt Rhule’s first three seasons. No more. After three years in which Nebraska rosters were heavy on youth, the pendulum has […]
Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: Week Three – North Dakota
Welcome to the most recent edition of my Nebraska Football player power rankings. As I have said before, this list will be completely subjective in several ways and may not follow a logical path. Or maybe it will. This power ranking list will be a combination of the most important, most impactful, a recent contribution, […]

Corn Flakes: Anthony Colandrea and Mania Ogbechie Earn Player of the Week Awards
I’ve been watching too much TikTok recently and have been getting frustrated with all the accounts that I am seeing talking about how Nebraska volleyball shouldn’t be ranked #1 and how weak their schedule is. These people are saying that a weak schedule is why Nebraska didn’t win the national championship last year and that […]
Monday Night Therapy: Nebraska vs. North Dakota || Week 3
Monday Night Therapy featured Minnie Hunt and Corn Nation writer Aaron Rastovski discussing Nebraska’s dominant 56-7 victory over Bowling Green and looking ahead to North Dakota. The Huskers produced 546 total yards while holding Bowling Green to just 169, providing one of the most complete performances Nebraska has shown in recent years. The hosts were […]

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Nebraska fans and fans across the country.

Corn Flakes: Volleyball and Football Stay Undefeated
This week is Husker Harvest Days in Grand Island. It is a celebration of everything agriculture. The college I work for takes a crew down to staff a booth. Several hundred FFA members attend, so it is a recruiting event for us. I enjoy talking with the high school kids but I have to admit […]
