Nebraska Baseball Fall Ball Preview

However, you don’t have to wait that long to see Bolt and the boys roll out their new look team (and coaching staff!).

This year’s schedule will feature 2 home games, followed by the Red-White series,... |
My Thoughts 1⁄3 of the way through the Husker Football Season
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Could be better…Could be worse… We are officially one/third of the way through the football season already (I know…don’t blink). There is plenty to ponder about the way this season has gone, and I’m not really sure how it will go in the end. One thing is for sure, it has been a giant mixed bag that makes trail mix jealous. The problem I possess is this, fans only care about 2 types of outcomes, winning and losing. I however... |

Morgan Engel/NCAA Photos via Getty Images Huskers are hitting the road this week against #17 Purdue and Indiana Week 6 takes Husker Volleyball on the road for just their third and fourth away matches of the season.

THE 24 HOUR RULE: For Huskers Football, Now The Real Pain Begins
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images And the time for patience begins as well. There is a road map to a bowl game. It just may not feel that way after Saturday. At least that’s the way it might feel Saturday evening. If bookies are to be believed, the final score won’t sound that bad, they’re saying 28 or 29 to 10 or so. Some respect for our defense, not so much for the offense. However, a loss to the Wolverines will not be the end... |
Nebraska Football: Kewan Lacy Is Our Most Important Recruit, At A Position Of Extreme Need
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Please God, let this kid stick with his Nebraska commitment! Unless you are stranded on a desolate atoll in the South Pacific Ocean surviving off of roasted taro & feral chickens, you have heard that both Gabe Ervin and Rahmir Johnson are out for the season with injury. Our remaining scholarship backs are Anthony Grant, Emmett Johnson and Kwinten Ives. This situation is dire. We are an injury away from having to play Maurice Mazzcua. Nebraska commit Kewan Lacy having... |

Corn Flakes: Bergen Reilly B1G Setter and Freshman of the Week

I don’t remember this month flying by quite as quickly as it did this year. While I love September, I am looking forward to October and am hoping for some 70 or 65 degree temperatures. That perfect temp that you may be able to have on a jacket or hoodie, but you don’t need any more than that. Anyhow, here are... |
Corn Nation Over Reaction: A Duct Tape Win over LA Tech
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images No Gabe Ervin Jr. No Rahmir Johnson. No Dwight Bootle. Yes, Heinrich Haarberg. The Kid from Kearney started again and led Nebraska to a 28-14 win over Louisiana Tech, throwing for a score and galloping to another, accounting for 264 yards of offense, including a gem of a rushing TD. But Haarberg can’t do it all on his own. Nebraska has the top rushing defense in the land and one of the better offensive rushing attacks. Hoss says he’s starting... |
Monday Night Therapy: Louisiana Tech Review And Nebraska’s Place in the Big Ten West!
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Jon didn’t provide a write-up for this week’s show, so I’m winging it. Here’s all he said on YouTube. In this very special episode Todd and I will review the Nebraska – Louisiana Tech game. Then we will ponder what is happening with the rest of the Big Ten West, particularly what kind of living hellscape it has become. So, I think it’s safe to say that there was some discussion on the 28-14 win over Louisiana Tech. The good,... |
Nebraska Football: Players Of The Game – Louisiana Tech

Fresh off the heels of a 28-14 victory over the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs, Nebraska readies itself for the toughest game of the season as we face the #2 Michigan Wolverines in Memorial Saturday afternoon. Before we move towards that game, I’d like to reflect on two players I feel deserve recognition for their performances against La Tech. Nash Hutmacher This is an evergreen selection at this point. Nash is playing like the... |
