What is Nebraska’s ceiling this season?
| Stephen Bruce Nebraska has yet to be truly tested in the first two outings at Memorial Stadium with this weekend likely to be much of the same. Judging how far this team can go without seeing them facing real adversity is very hard. Raiola has looked calm and composed in the pocket, which is remarkable for such a young quarterback, but as Mike Tyson famously said “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth”. The Big Ten will give him that test... |
Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: University of Northern Iowa
| Stephen Bruce The Huskers will be too much for the Panthers. That victory over Colorado last week was sweet! It was fun to see the Huskers get such a good start and quiet all of the talk about the Buffaloes. This week we are moving on. The University of Northern Iowa Panthers are coming to Lincoln and it’s time for the Huskers to keep this winning streak going. UNI is definitely a spoiler team, they have a solid defense and a strong rushing offense. This... |

Friday Flakes: Even Travis Hunter Admitted that the Environment at Nebraska Impacted the Game
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images “I couldn’t even think to myself because of how loud it was. Yeah, shout out to Nebraska,” said Travis Hunter on his podcast. Nebraska fans showed up last Saturday and definitely impacted the game. Even though Shedeur Sanders after the game said the environment didn’t affect him we all know it did. The Blackshirt defense probably had a lot to do with that as well. However, it is nice when you do hear an opposing player and in particular the... |
Nebraska vs Colorado – Sights and Sounds of an incredible Weekend at Memorial Stadium
| Stephen Bruce Last Saturday night against Colorado had to be one of the most amazing Memorial Stadium experiences I’ve ever had in my life. It was loud, it was wonderful, and it was exhausting, both exhausting and exhilarating at the same time. Corn Nation had a photographer on the field, Stephen Bruce, and he captured a lot of very good pictures of the gameplay, the presentation, and the fans. I have uploaded a bunch of photos that he sent me for your perusal. I hope... |
Thursday Flakes: History, No Let Down’s and Fantasy News
| Dylan Widger-Imagn Images History has a way of making us remember I wasn’t really sure if I had anything to talk about this week. Outside of being neck deep in Husker shirts at work, not a whole lot of excitement in my world. So, I’ll spend my opening dialogue like this: September 11th, 2001, I was an 8th grader at Kearney Catholic High School. I was in Mrs. Volkmer’s Theology class when we started to receive word what was going on in New York City.... |

THE 24 HOUR RULE: The Colorado Game Was the Best of Both Worlds
| Steve Bruce Sure, we wish 28-0 had turned into 49-10 or some such. But would that really have been the best result if we’re playing the long game? Let’s get this out of the way right off the bat. Colorado is a not very good football team with a couple or more exceptional football players. Deion Sanders dove into the portal last year – with the key additions being family and his best other players from Jackson State – and transformed a one-win team into…a... |
Nebraska Football: Turn it up to 11
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images We Spinal Tapped the hell out of it last Saturday I had a weird feeling we might be in for a special night when I got back into Lincoln at 1 pm Saturday. I had just finished playing in a morning golf tournament over an hour away, and after being awake since 4:45 am, I hadn’t even gotten over the bridge to get into town when traffic had completely stopped. The Bob Devaney Sports Center was already filling up with... |

Nebraska Volleyball Beats an Excellent Creighton Team in Five Sets
| Dylan Widger-USA TODAY Sports This three hour match was great viewing the whole way through Nebraska 3 vs Creighton 2- 25-19, 25-16, 31-33, 16-25, 15-10 This was a tale of two different teams exserting their will at times against the other. Nebraska was firing on all cylinders for the first two sets and Creighton could not find their rhythm. This match looked over part way through set three…but set three was much longer than we expected. Creighton stuck very close through this set, began to... |
