Nebraska Baseball Loses to Maryland 12-5

Cayden Brumbaugh’s first inning home run was a spark, but not enough | Nebraska Athletics Cornhuskers fall flat in Game 1 against Terps When you go on the road to play a team that has not won a conference series all season, making a statement on Friday night can set the tone for the rest of the weekend. Unfortunately, it was not Nebraska that made the statement. On an evening with intermittent rain, Nebraska pitching couldn’t keep Maryland runners off the bases, and the ball...

HUSKERS SOFTBALL – How About A Sweep by the Lake?: Previewing Washington

Two evenly matched teams have separate goals to be gained if one can pull off a sweep. Is that doable for either? The first Corn Nation softball road trip of the season is underway as I sit in a Seattle motel banging away on the keyboard after a 2-day, 1600 mile road odyssey from Omaha via Badlands National Park, The Black Hills, Montana including a small blizzard while crossing through Yellowstone Dutton Ranch country from Livingston to Bozeman and the amazing ranges of western Montana...

Nebraska Football Spring Preview: Special Teams – Who’s Turning It Around For Ekeler?

Nebraska Football Spring Preview – Defensive Backs: Another Large Room Which Will Shrink

Photo by Williams Paul/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Along with the battle to stick, the spring had the top of this room battling to gain and retain starting nods and playing time. The Nebraska Cornhuskers defensive back room, like the linebacker and several other rooms, finds itself overloaded in the new 105-man roster era. With D’Andre Barnes entry into the transfer portal, it is still 25 bodies strong and will find itself several lighter following Saturday’s festivities. While many players will be enjoying the afternoon,...

Nebraska Football Spring Preview: Linebackers – Cuts Are Coming From This Group

Photo by Williams Paul/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images 20 linebackers are currently rostered, but many won’t be much longer from a position group whose 2-deep is becoming clear. With 20 linebackers currently on the Nebraska Cornhuskers roster, anywhere from 5 to 8 of the names below could be appearing here for the last time when Coach Rhule likely delivers the bad news to players next week after the coaches make their final decisions to cut the roster down much closer the to the final 105....

Thursday Flakes: The NFL Draft and More

Photo by Williams Paul/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Don’t forget the joke of the week… The NFL Draft starts tonight and I could not be happier that the Denver Broncos do not need a quarterback. Thank you Bo Nix for playing well enough that I don’t have to worry about the Broncos drafting Shedeur. I would have been really worried had Shedeur been available last year, as I’m sure the Broncos would have made that mistake. I eagerly await the next crop of Broncos to...
