HUSKERS SOFTBALL 2026 Intermission: Lori Sippel Retires as a Husker Longer Than Any Other
Immediately following the Huskers return from Oklahoma City, Associate Head Coach Lori Sippel went to Head Coach Revelle and let her know she was retiring. During our recent interview, I opined to Coach Revelle that after the June 2nd announcement, it seemed as if everything must have been known and planned in advance when coupled […]
Nebraska Lands Top-100 Wide Receiver Khalil Taylor
Matt Rhule has every reason to be thrilled with the way Nebraska’s 2027 recruiting class is coming together after landing Gibsonia, Pennsylvania, wide receiver Khalil Taylor. Taylor becomes the fourth Top 100 prospect in Nebraska’s class and adds another explosive weapon to what is quickly becoming one of the strongest recruiting groups of the Rhule […]
Corn Flakes: USA Goes Down, Huskers Play in U21 Pan American Cup
Did you watch the US game in the World Cup last night? It was such a disappointment after all of the exciting build up for the US to end it like that. I do have to admit though, this team got me in to watching the games and I am excited to see who wins […]
HUSKERS SOFTBALL 2026 Part 2: The Games That Got Away
Here’s how I led this part of the season review last year: No one enjoys a loss. No one. Coach Rhonda Revelle believes in turning “losses” into “learns” and the best losses are truly games from which you do learn a lesson and become a better player, team and coach going forward. Well, apparently, that […]
Corn Flakes: World Cup, Husker Recruiting News, and Reuben Sandwich Origins
We recently returned from a family trip to London to drop off Ranchhand 3 at his summer internship. It was fun to watch World Cup matches through the eyes of Englanders. They were incredibly supportive of the USMNT and several actually picked us to take the Cup…(what?!?) I finally learned about the flags of the […]
Friday Flakes: Ranking Nebraska Football’s 2026 Away Games for a Road Trip
I’m the type of person that likes to pick a destination based off of what we can do on the way there, while we are there and what we might be able to do on the way back home. Yesterday I stumbled upon a fun video on youtube, which I posted below, which ranks each […]
Five Heart Podcast: The Band is Back Together
You’re seeing it all correctly. Do not adjust your antennae. Minnie is BACK! This week on the Five Heart Podcast, the unexplainable legal trouble of current and former Husker athletes. How does the distraction affect the Huskers? Will this provide some on-the-field clarity as far as who will be the designated number one RB in […]
Huskers Softball 2026 Pt. 1: Best Team Ever? & The Record Books Get Slapped Around Again.
This is the second annual iteration of a 4-part review of the just-completed season of Huskers softball. And obviously there’s quite a bit to talk about after a loaded roster met and exceeded expectations which were high with a 2026 roster featuring 12 seniors following the 2025 team’s coming up one run short against Tennessee […]
Nebraska Keeps It Low-Key for Big Ten Media Days — And That’s Probably the Right Move
I know this is peak offseason content—trying to psychoanalyze the players selected for Big Ten Media Days—but I’m going to do it anyway. Nebraska announced that tight end Luke Lindenmeyer, center Justin Evans and cornerback Andrew Marshall will represent the Huskers at Big Ten Football Media Days in Chicago from July 28-30. It’s a decidedly […]
Thursday Flakes: USA Wins, World Cup Drama and More
I love this particular stage of the World Cup. It’s win or go home, do or die, survive and advance. It’s the time to root for the underdog every single time and be disappointed when the favorites win. I’ve been able to discuss this tournament with plenty of people who hate soccer, but love America. […]

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: Another Memorial Stadium Concert, Johansson Finalist for Bowerman
I hope you all have been staying cool these past few days and have plans to beat the heat the rest of the week. We have officially made it to the part of summer where it is insanely hot and the temps look like they aer going to stay this way for awhile. If you’ve […]
NEBRASKA REACTS Survey Results: The New Uniforms Are…Not Great
(This article brought to you by FanDuel) So this week’s survey concerned the Husker uniform change, which was probably as much a testament as to how little is going on this time of year as much as anything else. But when the hype is images such as this: And the payoff is minor uniform adjustments […]
Corn Flakes: Football Commit Taylor Continues to Impress
Even though the World Cup is being hosted in North America, I have been in London and seeing the enthusiasm here is making me enjoy soccer….errr football…more. The flag of England is flying everywhere. I’m not talking about the Union Jack, it is the white flag with a red cross that is on display for […]
The NCAA Adopts the 5/5 Age-Based Eligibility Model: What Does It Mean? And For Nebraska?
First off, let’s just dive right in. I’ll have an opinion here and there, so I’ll try to put those into italics. But let’s just start with the new rules which go into place immediately. Sort of. But we’ll get to that quickly. Here we go. First note: Call me nuts but does anyone else […]
Friday Flakes: Nebraska Matches Best Directors’ Cup Finish Since the Eric Crouch Catch
We have to go back all the way to “Black 41 Flash Reverse” which is the name of the play Nebraska ran to help #3 Nebraska beat #2 Oklahoma. Crouch ended up catching a 63 yard pass from Mike Stuntz and the rest is history. That was in 2001. Well in 2025-2026, Nebraska earned a […]
Five Heart Podcast: Five for Five
No, that’s not our iTunes star rating (but it should be)! The NCAA announced this week that the world of college athletics is changing as the institution is enacting a new rule for college athletics eligibility. Five years to play five seasons. It doesn’t exactly mean that student-athletes will conclude their collegiate careers by age […]
Thursday Flakes: USA’s Final Group Match, B1G Media Choices and More
Today is the day I have dreamt about in terms of USA Soccer, a group stage match where I can relax. Yes, it’s very important to set out to win every time you play any game, but as a fan it’s nice to know this one “doesn’t mean anything.” Will I be unhappy if the […]

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. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Off-seasons for awhile now have been periods of a much growlier nature than in the winning […]
Nebraska Football’s Purgatory
It’s been a good year for Nebraska Athletics. Both men’s and women’s basketball teams made the NCAA tournament, with the men making it to the Sweet Sixteen. Softball make the Women’s College World Series while baseball hosted a NCAA regional. Volleyball nearly made a Final Four, losing to eventual National Champion Texas A&M. But then […]
Corn Flakes: Oklahoma Wins It All, Johansson Honda Award Winner, and What About Those Uniforms?
Did you watch Oklahoma’s dominate win for the College World Series championship last night? I personally wasn’t expecting Oklahoma to make it to the championship series, and the performances that they put on for the two wins was impressive. Who did you have to win it all? 2026 College World Series schedule: Scores, bracket, TV […]

In-State IOL Barrett Kitrell Decides to Stay Home
Nebraska added another important piece to its 2027 recruiting class this weekend as Ashland-Greenwood, NE interior offensive lineman Barrett Kitrell announced his commitment to the Huskers. The battle for his commitment came down to the wire, with Iowa making a serious push to pull Kitrell across the border. In the end, Nebraska managed to keep […]
Nebraska Based Pizza Review: Mama’s Pizza – Omaha
This off-season I am going to review various pizza restaurants that are based or originate in Nebraska. I am hoping to review Pizza places in both Lincoln and Omaha as well as potentially others within my driving distance. Nebraska is not known for its pizza but I continue to hear about all these good pizza […]
Nebraska Football Gets New Uniforms – Why?
Nebraska football released new uniforms yesterday. Nebraska Athletic Department said this. The uniforms, which feature updates inspired by classic Husker football design elements, were unveiled on Saturday night at the Hawks Championship Center following the Battle of The Boneyard 7 on 7 event. Here’s the uniforms: I am not a uniform guy. I work in […]
