For the second time in three years, Nebraska will play its season opener in Kansas City at Arrowhead Stadium. The first game of the 2027 season will be against Miami (Ohio) at the home of the Kansas City Chiefs. It will be on Friday, August 27th which was considered week zero before the change by […]
Corn Flakes: Husker Volleyball Still #1, A 30 Year Football Streak, and Pillows
I know we are deep into Husker sports season and there is much to talk about, but I need some pillow recommendations. I’m looking for something that helps with neck and trap pain, works for a side or back sleeper, and isn’t $100. I’d love to hear any suggestions. Nebraska 30 Years Without Being Shut […]
Monday Night Therapy: Huskers vs. Spartans Week 4
Minnie Hunt welcomes Husker Chuck back to Monday Night Therapy to recap Nebraska’s 3-0 start and look ahead to the Huskers’ first Big Ten matchup against Michigan State. While Nebraska handled its first three opponents as expected, Chuck cautions that conference play represents a significant jump in competition and should provide a much better measuring […]
CORN NATION Reacts Survey: Will Our Shot at the Champs Have National Eyes on Lincoln?
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. The Nebraska Cornhuskers are currently undefeated after a 3-0 start against two MAC opponents and North Dakota, an FCS school. With that accomplished, they can safely […]

Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: Jamal Rule Rising, Jacory Barney Sliding, Justin Evans Still No. 1
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: Big 10 Football Coming Up, Is Huskers Volleyball Doomed, Nate the Great
””Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.“ – Ferris Bueller And what more proof do you need of this than the fact football and volleyball are already sailing by us? We spend all spring and summer massively anticipating these two sports and are […]
Corn Nation Overreaction: Huskers Start 3-0, MSU Next
Jon Johnston put out a video this morning wondering if this is Nebraska’s best team ever. At least, that’s the headline. It’s much more captivating than “Huskers Start 3-0, MSU Next.” As of this writing, I haven’t watched the video yet. This is probably the best team in the Matt Rhule era. And the team […]
Report Card: Huskers 34, North Dakota Fighting Hawks 7
Nebraska closed out what I call the exhibition schedule of the 2026 season successfully with a fairly dominant 34-7 victory over FCS #6 North Dakota. I say “fairly” because the score was a lot closer than the stats indicated. When Nebraska outgains an opponent 493 to 205 yards, you probably should expect the score to […]
CORN NATION REACTS Poll Results: Folks, We Have a Tie!
I think I’m going to keep publishing these results on Sunday. Why? Because college football is so damn wacky, I like to be talking about the poll results after the weekend games have been played. This week, the Husker question was for you to choose which area of their 2026 game is your favorite or […]
Husker Volleyball Goes 4 Sets Today to Get Win Against FGCU: #1 Nebraska 3 – FGCU 1
Nebraska 3-FGCU 0: 25-10, 25-17, 25-27, 25-14 Today was a good day for the Huskers bench as DBK was able to put almost their entire roster into the match. It was a good way to close out the Ameritas Players Challenge and it was nice to see what other girls can do before B1G play […]
Maybe It’s the Colandrea Effect. We’ll Find Out in East Lansing and The Morning After
49-21, 56-7 and 34-7. Those are the scores for Nebraska’s first three games of the season against admittedly lower-level opponents. Many have said that Nebraska simply did what they were supposed to do. Which is correct but that by itself is why I feel much better about this Nebraska football team going into conference play […]
HUSKERS Grind Up the Hawks, Now Look to the Big 10: NEBRASKA 34 North Dakota 7
The scoreboard didn’t show a big ol’ 56-7 score, but the Huskers grabbed control early and never let go. And when the final gun sounded they had won 34-7 without ever being challenged, seriously or otherwise. The final yardage numbers were 496-205 Nebraska with the Fighting Hawks not crossing the 200 yard mark until the […]
Nebraska Squashes North Dakota 34-7 To Finish Pre-Season 3-0
Nebraska football finishes the nonconference season 3-0. The Huskers beat North Dakota 34-7 on Saturday night in Memorial Stadium, and the word I kept coming back to while watching was crisp. That first quarter was the best-executed stretch of football we’ve seen this season. Two drives, two touchdowns, 14 points, and North Dakota never looked […]
Halftime Check-in: Points Are Thin but the Huskers Are Rolling: NEBRASKA 17 North Dakota 0
269-68. That’s the Husker lead in total yards at halftime, and it’s probably a credit to North Dakota playing mostly mistake-free ball that the scoreboard doesn’t look worse. The Husker defense basically shut down the Hawks high-octane vs. lousy opponents offense, and after a 32-yard completion from Jerry Kamenski to Deng Deng, North Dakota managed […]
Nebraska vs North Dakota! Live Discussion! Game Thread! WoooO!

NEBRASKA vs. North Dakota Pre-Game Vibes: Focus, Win Big and Move On
Some folks, both Husker fans and not Husker fans, grumbled when the ‘Skers dropped Tennessee from the 2026 and 2027 schedules a year ago. The good news is we are officially done with games with weaker opponents for ‘26 later this evening. The final foe is North Dakota and they happily made the trip down […]
Husker Volleyball Faces FGCU for the First Ever Matchup on Sunday
After a record setting night in Devaney on Friday, the Huskers will look to close out the Ameritas Players Challenge with a 2-0 record and, hopefully, their 1st sweep of the weekend. The Huskers hosted #25 North Carolina on Friday night and what looked like what as going to be a sweep, turned into a […]
Five Games Which Mattered Last Week: Texas Finally Wins a Big One & Oregon Goes on Red Alert
With one more week of mostly non-conference play remaining, last weekend did not have a shortage of games to choose from. I found five with five different reasons for making the cut today including a Top 5 battle, a major upset, a minor upset plus redemption, a hard lesson about taking hype videos a little […]
Early Games Thread – Anything Interesting Going ON? -Game Thread
I like college football, but when you look at today’s slate of games, it’s really hard to find something that might be interesting to watch. Therefore I have included all a lot of lower division games. The big game of the day is LSU-Old Miss. Possibly for the number of riots and fisticuffs that could […]
Week 3 Predictions: Fighting Hawks at Huskers
Mike: Brides insisting on a fall Saturday for a wedding really should look into week three. My goodness, this week’s schedule is simply craptastic. Patrick: When all else fails, look to the FCS Andy: For those of you who actually do watch the 1-AA title tournament and don’t just tell everyone you do, remember that […]
Husker Volleyball Gets 1st Win of Ameritas Challenge: #1 Nebraska 3 – #25 North Carolina 1
Nebraska 3-North Carolina 1: 25-14, 20-25, 25-21, 25-10 On the opening night of the Ameritas Players Challenge, the Huskers hosted the North Carolina Tar Heels first. Another ranked team to test them before B1G play starts. While yes they did rise to the occasion, there were still moments of “what is going on” that are […]

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 […]
