Nebraska Football: Mac Markway Announces He Is Stepping Away from Football
In 2024, Nebraska received a transfer from a former four-star recruit who started one game for LSU as a true freshman. That was Mac Markway and he was going to be the next great tight end for Nebraska. Unfortunately, Markway suffered a knee injury in September of 2024 while at Nebraska. He ended up redshirting […]
A 24-Team Playoff, a Phantom Second, and the SEC Ready to Expel LSU
Three things crossed my desk in one day, and by the end of it I realized they were all the same story. The College Football Playoff opened negotiations on a 24-team playoff. The MAC formally appealed to have Michigan’s win over Western Michigan erased. And the SEC scheduled a Thursday vote on whether to throw […]
Nebraska Football: Adjustments to Winning
I had just sat down…kickoff happened and the season was under way. I was adding to the crowd noise from the comfort of my recliner, entertaining my twins as they watched their first season opener. 5 seconds after the snap, my wife came running into the living room wondering why I, along with Husker fans […]
Nebraska Football Player Power Rankings: Game Two – Bowling Green
Welcome to my 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, […]

Nebraska Stat Tracker vs Ohio, Week 1
Nebraska 49, Ohio 21 — and the offense is a long way ahead of the defense Welcome to the first statistical breakdown of the 2026 Nebraska football season. I said back in the summer that I’d track a set of numbers all year to see how this team is actually doing, and this is the […]
Monday Night Therapy: Week 2 Nebraska vs Bowling Green
Monday Night Therapy recaps Nebraska’s 49-21 victory over Ohio while looking ahead to Bowling Green. Although the Huskers won comfortably, the discussion emphasizes that the game was far from a dominant performance early on. Nebraska struggled with penalties, committing nine for 65 yards, while the secondary surrendered an immediate touchdown because of a blown coverage. […]
Corn Flakes: Jamal Rule B1G Freshman of the Week, Huskers Enter Top 25 in FPI, Plus the Oldest Women’s Softball Team
I’m not sure what stood out to you most in that Husker win, but to me it was Jamal Rule. The Freshman did his best to make a case for why he should be RB1. I kept thinking his name sounded familiar and I think I was just combining the memory of having Jamal Lord […]
Corn Flakes: What “One Second” Memory Stands Out to You?
If you watched college football’s opening weekend, it was hard to get away from replays and ‘analysis’ on the Western Michigan – Michgan game. It looked like Western Michigan’s upset bid was complete when the Wolverine Hail Mary flew out of the back of the end zone and time expired. Except, time had not expired, […]
Corn Nation Overreaction: Digesting the Huskers’ 49-21 Season-Opening Win
On this week’s Corn Nation Overreaction, Jake and Greg break down the season-opening win over the Ohio Bobcats. 49-21. Nebraska covered the spread. On paper, it looks like a big, bad victory. But if you watched the game, you may have…concerns. It wouldn’t be the most unheard of thing for an upstart from the Mid-American […]

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. […]

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.

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.

Nebraska 3-DePaul 0: 25-19, 25-13, 25-15 The Huskers started their weekend off playing a match in Wintrust Center against the DePaul Blue Demons.

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 […]
