Frosted Flakes: Gymnastics & Spring Game Fun
| So, who won the weekend? The Husker spring game was held this weekend in case you were living under a rock. I like to inform everyone and I hope that those who live under rocks read our site. So, if you’re just hearing of this scrimmage then “you’re welcome”. You missed quite the show. Tens of thousands of the Husker faithful made their way down to Lincoln to be apart of what we all believe is the next major step in Nebraska history. The glorious... |
Scott Frost’s First Spring Game: Still Not Fast Enough
| Things are starting to look a little bit faster in Lincoln, NE LINCOLN, NE – Everything is fast. We have been hearing it the entire spring practice period. The speed was certainly on display during Scott Frost’s first spring game. Even the officiating crew had a little trouble in the beginning keeping up with the pace. With the new focus on speed there will obviously be mistakes. There were several offensive procedure penalties early in the game as well as multiple dropped snaps by the... |
Nebraska Spring Game Report Card: Red 49, White 9
| It’s a mostly meaningless exhibition that’s officially a practice…but that doesn’t stop fans from inferring some meaning anyway. First, the usual disclaimer: Now that spring games are televised, it’s way too easy to read too much into the spring game. The playbook is dialed way-down while the matchups are set up to make the starters look good. The idea of the game is to entertain your fans and recruits, not challenge the team. Heck, some schools don’t even have a spring game anymore; they just... |
Five Heart Podcast: Spring Game Preview
| Hoss and Hooch give their rundown of the Spring Game rosters, growing excitement for Coach Frost, and the worst beer mixer in the world, probably. This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Hooch and Hoss talk about today’s Spring Game. The guys review the Red and White rosters. Who has the advantage in each position? Why do we think some of the roster decisions were made, and what does it mean for the overall depth chart going forward? Also, Scott Frost was interviewed by Bruce... |
Nebraska Football Red White Game Thread
| Join us to over-analyze quarterback play and crown the new spring game hero So, who’s going to make plays today that everyone buzzes about….and then that player promptly drops off the face of the depth chart to never be heard from again? Will we know any more about quarterbacks after today? (No, but that won’t stop us from talking about it anyway.) What are you watching for? Tell us in the comments! Game Time: 11 am TV: The game will be televised live on BTN.... |
Nebraska Red White Game: Game Time, TV, Streaming, Special Events & More

With a capacity crowd expected on Saturday morning, fans are encouraged to arrive early. Coach Frost recently addressed the media and indicated that the game would be a “normal” game minus a few kicking plays. The second half will include... |
Scott Frost Blames Past “Leadership on Campus” For Decline of Nebraska Football
| Is it wrong for Frost to point the finger? Not right now, while he’s trying to upright the ship. But very soon, it’ll be time to focus on the future, not the past. In Bruce Feldman’s excellent profile of Scott Frost, Nebraska’s new head football coach makes it clear who’s responsible for the decline of Husker football in his eyes: Well, the leadership on campus and in the AD office ruined this place because it was either guys who thought, I wanna do it my... |
Nebraska Football: Spring Game Rosters!
| Will the Whites beat Red this season? Nebraska has released the rosters for the somewhat unknown Scott Frost’s debut Spring Game, an event which is shaping up to be an epic smorgasbord of feelings and optimism and hope and 1990s nostalgia. Helming the Red team will be QBs Gebbia and Martinez, while White team will feature QBs Bunch and Vedral. The Red team leads the series 41-15-1. Noted local man Scott Frost is 3-0. His debut game in 1995 was a three-touchdown effort to lead... |

The scrimmage is SOLD OUT, so there will be plenty of Husker fans around. The weather forecast looks better now than it did earlier in the week. At the time of this writing (Tuesday night), it looks like a high of 53 with a 30% chance of rain. Does it matter? Every year I try to gauge the... |

Frosted Flakes: Snow, Rewriting Genes, Promposals
| Jill is tired of winter. We also look ahead to the spring game and warn you to name your wifi network…carefully. The Facebook memes going around declaring this the 105th of January are spot on. This is the winter that doesn’t want to end. We started calving a few days ago…just in time for a blizzard. For two days, we were bringing cold calves into the garage (loyal farm dog had to give up her bed) to dry them off and warm them up. Once... |
Frosted Flakes: Our Changing News Landscape
| We really are living in rapidly changing times. Technology has given us the ability to move information and a faster pace than we have ever imagined. It has also allowed us to inform just about everyone across the globe that has the ability to get online. But all of this cost money. Information is for everyone but it can’t always be free. Someone has to make a living and pay the bills. The model of news institutions giving away information for free is not sustainable.... |
