Nebraska vs Colorado Recap: What is Holding Anyway? Targeting?

We will be talking about the Nebraska-Colorado game and, in particular, how the rules are supposed to work. The second half was the worst half of football I’ve seen in a very long time and that was largely due to the officials making themselves known and being clear that they wanted to influence the game. We’re going to talk about what targeting is, what holding is, and of course what happened in the game, especially Ty Robinson because I think Ty Robinson should be getting...

Corn Flakes: Husker Football is Ranked, Volleyball Wins, and Dolphins Are Weird

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Wait wut?!? I clipped more articles about football than volleyball? The Huskers are ranked! This is NOT a drill! If the adage “you know it when you see it” is true, then Dylan Raiola is “it”. Husker fans saw it last week and apparently the national media was watching too. They saw “it” against a Power Four opponent and decided it was time to rhule that the Huskers should be admitted to the Top 25. I’m not sure the Huskers...

Corn Nation Overreaction: First Half Catapults Nebraska Football to Victory

Well, we are back live less than twenty-four hours after the conclusion of an exciting 28-10 Nebraska win over the Colorado Buffaloes. Greg, Hoss, and Big Game Jake will discuss Greg’s trip to Lincoln and dining with Hoss. These two friends, fellow Husker fans, and longtime broadcast buddies finally met in real life for the very first time. And to top it all off, the Huskers handled the team from Boulder. While the second half was, dare we say, a bit of a dud, the...

Report Card: Huskers 28, Colorado Golden Buffaloes 10

Uh oh. They coming. Again. | Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Did this game make the statement that Nebraska is able to be a good team again? Or did it make the statement that Neon Deion’s Colorado team is all hat, no buffalo. Or both? In front of the loudest, most raucous crows in Memorial Stadium in nearly ten years, Nebraska’s Blackshirt defense exposed the fraud that is Deion Sanders’ Colorado football program “resurgence”. For all the media hype that Colorado gets, the scoreboard ruled...

Saturday Night was a Glimpse at What the Nebraska Football Program Could Be in Win Against Deion Sanders and Colorado

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Last night after Nebraska went up 28-0 I got a text from a friend. He saw a sign made by a Nebraska fan that said the following, “So this is the Husker Football my dad has always talked about.” I would say that we are not there yet. Not even close. However, I think we all saw a glimpse of what Nebraska football could become. Last night we saw a loud imposing crowd atmosphere and the play on the field...

Huskers Recap – A Tale of Two Halves: HUSKERS 28 COLORADO 10

Shedeur’s night was rough – the Blackshirts shone shone against a high-scoring offense. | Steve Bruce It wasn’t always pretty, but in a surprisingly low-scoring game of guts, the Huskers got it done. It’s a fine place to start. The first half of the 2024 Nebraska-Colorado matchup was a thing of beauty if you were a Husker fan. The offense got it done when presented the opportunity and the Blackshirts thoroughly shut down the Buffalo track meet. When the Huskers took advantage of some Buffalo...

First Half Recap – BLACKSHIRTS, BABY: HUSKERS 28 COLORADO 0

Steve Bruce The first half went about as well as we could’ve hoped. OK, fine, I wish it was 42-0, too Nebraska forced a Colorado punt before driving 51 yards behind a 12-yard Raiola scramble and two Dante Dowdell carries for 25 yards, the second for a 12-yard touchdown and a 7-0 lead. After Brian Buschini dropped a punt on the Buffs 2, the Sanders boys decided to throw it and Tommi Hill jumped a floater toward the Husker sideline for a pick-six upping the...

Nebraska is Grinding the Buffalies Into Hamburger 28-0 Second Half Thread

Dylan Widger-Imagn Images At the half…Husker Nation is feeling some hope that Nebraska is figuring out how to football again I’m at a wedding. In Nebraska. On a Husker game day. Fortunately the DJ is giving score updates. Go Big Red! Coach Prime said Shiloh Sanders has a broken arm after a collision with Dowdell. Yikes. Hopefully he heals up soon. First Quarter Recap The Blackshirts started the game off with a bang. Three and out for Colorado. The huskers marched down the field methodically...

NEBRASKA vs. COLORADO – Drinks Are Flowing: PRE-GAME & HOW TO WATCH

Huskers fans are getting their gills oiled and leaving Nebraska Nice in their garages with the snow shovels. | Steve Bruce An hour to go to kickoff and I don’t know about the players but the fans are READY. A quick trip through the baseball parking lot tailgate found it packed and in full swing 4 1⁄2 hours prior to kickoff. Game opinions and red cups with liquids of personal choice were both in full supply and flowing freely. On the way to the stadium,...
