HUSKERS HAPPY HOUR: We Are Doomed Forever…Or Are We?
Join us Tuesday night at 8pm CST for the Huskers Happy Hour and OH MY GOD, this is the worst year EVER!! Or it’s the best regular season record we’ve had since 2015? So confusing but we have plenty to hash out after a second straight blowout quickly followed by the John Butler firing. We […]

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.

Week 14 Cobs: Rivalry Week Chaos, Revolutionary War Reenactment and a Snowman
It’s that time of the week again. Get on your bicycle as we cruise through this week’s cob nominations. Texas A&M After all these years, the Aggies still can’t beat the Longhorns and it cost them a spot in the SEC Championship. The Eyes of Texas are in Austin. SMU All the Mustangs had to […]

Corn Nation NEBRASKA vs. Iowa Photo Gallery
Yes, we all know the game result was an unmitigated disaster. But Steve did some amazing work where the scarlet and cream of Nebraska against the yellow and black of Iowa really made the uniform colors pop in the shots below. Throw in some occasional snow and it really makes for a gallery worth checking […]
Monday Night Therapy: Where do we go from here?
On this episode of Monday Night Therapy, Minnie Hunt and Fred Sacco open with humor and self-inflicted shame after Nebraska’s loss to Iowa, including Minnie wearing “Iowa yellow” after losing a bet. The tone quickly shifts as they address the biggest news of the week: defensive coordinator John Butler’s firing following another embarrassing defensive performance, […]
Corn Flakes: Butler Gone, Volleyball Stays Home, Women’s Basketball Ranked
We have all suffered enough for our Husker Football Fandom. We’ve chugged that Kool-Aid and ended up sad and lonely (not really that lonely, we have all the other Husker fans to commiserate with). It’s time for us now to look past that and focus on the good. That good is Nebraska Volleyball and the […]
Why Was John Butler Removed as Nebraska Football’s Defensive Coordinator? One Stat Makes It Completely Obvious
After the shellacking Nebraska experienced the past two games against Penn State and Iowa it was clear that changes likely needed to be made on the Nebraska coaching staff. There were a few top targets for Nebraska fans and high up on that list was Defensive Coordinator John Butler. Now it is being reported, by […]
BREAKING: Huskers Football Reportedly Has Moved On from John Butler (Updated)
A short time ago, HuskerOnline reported that Matt Rhule has released John Butler from his position as Defensive Coordinator for the Nebraska Cornhuskers. He had been with the program only two seasons hired in 2024 as the defensive secondary coach. His current tenure as DC has ended after only one. His defense excelled in some […]
Corn Nation Overreaction: Another Season Ends with L to Hawkeyes
Emmett Johnson was a one-man wrecking crew, racking up 217 rushing yards, but it wasn’t enough as Nebraska lost to Iowa 40-16 on Black Friday. Truly, a dark day indeed. Amidst the loss, freshman quarterback TJ Lateef suffered a tear in his hamstring, making him one-dimensional as a player. That led to 9 of 24 […]
Husker Wrestling: A Look at Nebraska’s 2026 Recruiting Class
Nebraska has officially signed its entire 2026 recruiting class — the Huskers signed a sizable class of nine wrestlers who will arrive next fall. As usual, Nebraska recruited nationally in this class — the Huskers currently have 29 guys on their roster from 16 different states — the highest number (seven) coming from in-state Nebraska. […]
Corn Flakes: Volleyball’s Quest For a Natty Starts Now
My family and I attended the debacle in Lincoln on Friday. There were 10 of us trying to ignore the obnoxious Iowa fans in our section (unsuccessfully) while we froze and watched an increasingly embarrassing spectacle. If anything has sealed the ranchhand’s ambivalence toward Husker football, this game was it. The ranchhands are between 19 […]
Nebraska Volleyball Earns #1 Seed; First Look
Nebraska is the top seed for the 2025 NCAA volleyball tournament. The selection committee didn’t debate very long, if they debated at all, about this decision. The Huskers have a record of 30 wins to zero losses and in fact have only lost seven sets all season. Nebraska hosts the first and second round of […]
Report Card: Iowa Hawkeyes 40, Emmett Johnson 16
Matt Rhule pretty owned Nebraska’s 40-16 loss to Iowa at the start of his postgame press conference: “I’ll be the first to say that that’s unacceptable.” Pretty much sums it up for me. I’m not sure I can honestly say that Nebraska absolutely should have beaten Iowa, but there’s no doubt that Nebraska should not […]
Nebraska Volleyball Caps Off an Undefeated Season with a Win Over Ohio State
Nebraska 3 vs Ohio State 0 – 25-16, 25-13, 25-20 Nebraska played a variety of line ups in their three-set win against Ohio State. Senior Maisie Boesiger started for the first time in her career with the libero jersey. Fellow senior Allie Sczech started on the right side. The two other seniors on the team, […]

Nebraska Men’s Basketball Recap: Huskers win Ugly one 72-63
FIRST HALF ANALYSIS: It’s cold and snowy here in Nebraska, and with the way the game started for the Huskers, you would think it was colder judging by the Husker shooting. USC Upstate controlled the half for a very large portion of it, with Carmelo Adkins scoring 6 quick points for the Spartans. Berke Buyuktuncel […]

Rivalry Saturday Live Discussion!
I realize Nebraska’s regular season is over and really disappointing, especially the last two games. But there is a lot of college football out there that’s really good. Today is a day like no other. You’ve got Ohio State, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin, UCLA vs USC,
The Morning After: The Nebraska Football Offseason Starts Now and Plenty of Hard Decisions to be Made
I think if you would have told me that Emmett Johnson runs for 217 yards and averaged 7.5 yards per carry that Nebraska beats Iowa comfortably. Instead it was the exact opposite as Nebraska wastes an all-time performance and gets embarrassed 40-16 against their rival in Iowa. This is a huge off-season for Nebraska and […]
Husker Volleyball Locks In For a Dominating Performance Against Penn State
Nebraska 3 vs Penn State 0 – 25-14, 25-11, 25-14 The first 15 points of the first set was competitive and offered some back and forth scoring for each team. Right around 9-7 on the scoreboard, Nebraska pulled away and never looked back. There was dominance from the service line. There was a hitting clinic […]

HUSKERS Recap – “The 7th Best Game in Lincoln This Week”: Iowa 40 NEBRASKA 16
I begin this post-game wrap-up with 9:37 left and the Huskers trailing 40-16. Should the greatest rally in Huskers history ensue, I will leave this intro up here, adjust accordingly and fully confess to saying it really didn’t look that good. Sidebar: As I made a pit stop before diving into this recap, I overheard […]
Iowa 40 Nebraska 16 – To Call This A Sh*tShow Would Be Unfair To Sh*tShows
Nebraska vs Iowa 2025: A Loss That Demands Answers There’s a moment in every Nebraska fan’s season where blind optimism crashes headfirst into cold reality. That moment came on a Friday afternoon in Lincoln when Iowa walked into Memorial Stadium and administered a 40-16 beating that left the home crowd streaming for the exits well […]
