Thursday Flakes: The World Cup Begins!
I’m a pretty big soccer fan, but there is just something about the World Cup that makes it that much more special. I have watched every single minute of every single match since the 2010 South Africa World Cup, and this year is going to be really daunting. Just the sheer volume of matches, mixed […]

Corn Flakes:Grego Freshman All-American, New Women’s Basketball Assistant
What is your favorite summer sport? Mine is swimming. June is when that I am deep in to the swim team life. I love watching my kids swim. They aren’t the fastest swimmers but the improvement and confidence they develop is so amazing. Also, I find something just mesmerizing about watching great swimmers swim. The […]
Nebraska Has a Wildly Successful Recruiting Weekend
Nebraska entered the weekend knowing it had an opportunity to make a major statement on the recruiting trail. With several priority targets in Lincoln and momentum building across the 2027 class, the Huskers delivered in a big way. When the dust settled, Matt Rhule and his staff had secured commitments from four prospects at key […]
Aaron and Todd’s Post-Season Nebraska Baseball Wrap Up and Cleansing
We’d really hoped that we wouldn’t be writing this article the first week of June this year, but our Nebraska Cornhuskers have finished their season and we must face reality. We’ve let the dust clear a bit and given ourselves an opportunity to get our thoughts together to share them with you about the 2026 […]
Corn Flakes: Husker Football Reels in an Impressive Weekend Recruiting Haul
We have entered the part of the calendar year where Husker news is mostly about recruiting and athletic department projects. We have a fair number of the former this week as the Husker football 2027 recruiting class is really turning heads. Given the difficult schedule facing the Huskers in 2026, we will need some hopium […]
Trae Taylor Is MVP of the Elite 11! Can He Break the Huskers Elite 11 Curse?
Trae Taylor has been the most prolific and visible member of Nebraska’s 2027 recruiting class. He is very visible on social media and has very much inserted himself into the recruiting process as well. Despite Ahmad Hudson verbally committing to LSU, he is making an official visit to Lincoln this weekend and it appears Taylor, […]
Jordy Frahm To Join Huskers Softball Coaching Staff
The softball news keeps rolling in as Head Coach Rhonda Revelle announced Friday that Jordy Frahm will join the Nebraska softball staff as a full-time assistant coach. This news comes on the heels of announcements that Frahm is approximately three months pregnant immediately followed by Associate Head Coach of 37 years, Lori Sippel, announcing her […]
Friday Flakes: Where Does Western Nebraska Actually Start?
This is a great off-season topic especially since we are in the actual dog days of Nebraska sports off-season. I know there are still sports competing, like Track & Field but with softball and baseball ending their seasons on the same day I think we will be stretching to find topics until football and volleyball […]
Five Heart Podcast: Husker Commit Shines at Elite 11; Baseball, Softball Seasons End
This episode of the Five Heart Podcast mixed Nebraska sports discussion with plenty of humor and fan interaction. Greg and Fred opened with lighthearted banter before turning to Nebraska’s spring sports postseason results. The hosts reflected on Nebraska baseball’s successful 43–17 season, highlighted by hosting a regional for the first time since 2008, while acknowledging […]
Can Nebraska Football Rediscover an Offensive Identity This Season?
Nebraska has wandered through the college football wilderness for so long that much of its national relevance now lives in memories of the 1990s dynasty. For years, the Huskers have cycled through offensive ideas without ever fully committing to one. Promising flashes have repeatedly flattered to deceive, producing moments rather than meaningful victories. Under Matt […]
Thursday Flakes: NBA and NHL Finals, WCWS, Supers and More
With Nebraska’s ouster in both the Women’s College World Series and the Lincoln Regional for baseball, we have officially hit the summer-time blues. There is nothing really to report on other than speculation about this, that and the other thing involving everything. It’s really a time of year like Seinfeld, it’s reporting about nothing. I […]
HUSKER HEAT – the Corn Nation Softball Show: I Can’t Believe It’s Over
Join us Tuesday night at 8pm CST for the final 2026 episode of Husker Heat which really feels like it came a week too early. Tonight, we’ll talk about the WCWS – the amazing win, the Briski shutdown and another crushing Texas loss for the woodpile. We can also talk about the rest of it […]
Corn Flakes: Puking on the Field and Baby Frahm
This weekend my son’s team had his last soccer game of the season. They fought hard, but came up with a loss. The strangest thing happened during the game though. One of his teammates was clearly not feeling well and ended up puking on the field. As soon as he was off, the ref just […]
Corn Flakes: Elimination Games End Husker Softball and Baseball Seasons
It isn’t fun to write the Flakes article on a Monday like this. Both the Husker softball and baseball seasons are over. The ladies made it to the Women’s College World Series but then uncharacteristically looked overwhelmed by the moment in a loss to Alabama. In the elimination game, Jordy had a no-hitter going but […]
Husker Wrestling: McDanel Dominates U23 Field, Winning National Title and Team USA Spot
Nebraska had three wrestlers this weekend at the U20 and U23 World Team Trials, but they were led by Camden McDanel, a former U20 World bronze-medalist. Sporting a new high-and-tight look, this buzz-cut version of McDanel means business on the mat. Already a two-time All-American for the Huskers, McDanel just blew through the competition on […]
Sun Devils End Nebraska’s Season with 11-8 Win
The take-home from the game this afternoon, as well as last nights, is that Nebraska’s bullpen is not very deep and what can be an explosive offense is not at the level it needs to be for post-season play. Both Arizona State and Mississippi exploited these weaknesses, on top of the fact that Nebraska simply did […]
Husker Wrestling: Ridge Lovett Beats Olympic Medalist Punia at RAF 09 in Dallas
A rising promotion within the combat sports world, Real American Freestyle has really put freestyle wrestling on the forefront with its UFC-style cards while exhibiting some of the world’s top talent. On Saturday night, RAF 09 featured a trio of Huskers in Ridge Lovett and Antrell Taylor at Lightweight (155 pounds), and Christopher Minto at […]
Stewart Crushes Jordy’s Perfect Effort As the Husker Dream Season Ends: Texas 3 – Nebraska 1
The script was perfect and so was Jordy Frahm through 5 1/3 innings. She handed out a walk with one out in the inning, but still took a no-hitter into the 6th. When asked afterward if she ever considered lifting Frahm due to the heat, Head Coach Rhonda Revelle was quick to point that out […]

Big Ten vs. SEC! Unfortunately, because of Mother Nature, the teams were not able to finish it up Saturday night. Ty Horn took the […]
The WCWS Preview – NEBRASKA vs Texas!! How To Watch/Listen & More
I woke up this morning knowing I’ve got breakfast sitting in the hotel fridge, so I have that going for me. I didn’t realize I was buying breakfast when I sat down for lunch yesterday at Granny’s Kitchen. Then my friendly waitress brought me a chicken fried steak roughly the size of my keyboard. I […]

A Loss to the Tide Puts HUSKERS SOFTBALL in an Elimination Game…Against Texas: Alabama 5 – Nebraska 1
Anatoly Tarasov, the Soviet hockey coach considered the father of Russian hockey once told Herb Brooks people focus too hard on winning the 3rd period and that a hockey game can be won in the first 10 minutes; a team can effectively be knocked out after being overwhelmed for a quick early lead and forced […]
