Corn Flakes: A Step Forward for the Football Program. What’s Next?

Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images Plus, the Husker women lost to the #1 UCLA Bruins and LeBron James turns 40 The Nebraska football team took the first significant step out of the muck of mediocrity that has hung over the program. A bowl win – in a one-score game nonetheless – and winning season is the first real progress we’ve seen in a while. So, what is next? What are the expectations for next year? The defense is being gutted to graduation, transfer and coaching...

Corn Nation Overreaction: Husker Football Ends 2024 with Pinstripe Bowl Win

Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images On the final Overreaction of the season, Greg and Hoss break down Nebraska’s 20-15 win in the Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowl. There were a lot of stories heading into this game and seemingly as many stories coming out of it. Winning the program’s first bowl game since 2015 ensures the team’s winning season. It sends the sixth-year guys out with a win. And Rahmir Johnson is crowned the game’s MVP in front of friends and family in his hometown....

Nebraska WBB Steamrolled by UCLA 91-54

Hayden Rooney The #1 Bruins looked like a top team should. This game came at an unfortunate time for Nebraska as they are still trying to figure out life after Natalie Pott’s season-ending injury. Later in the season, it may have been a slightly better performance by Nebraska, but I still suspect it would have been a comfortable Bruin win. The UCLA defense is exceptional. They had Nebraska flustered for most of the game. Nebraska’s defense was very very good in the first half, but...

Pinstripe Bowl Report Card: Huskers 20, Boston College Eagles 15

Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images A dreary day in the Bronx resulted in a very happy ending for Husker fans. It wasn’t pretty. But Nebraska’s Pinstripe Bowl performance was something far more important: PROGRESS. A winning record for the first time since 2016. A bowl victory for the first time since 2015. Not major accomplishments by themselves, but rather for the futility that can now be relegated to the dumpster of history. It’s hard to read a lot into this game due to the poor weather conditions;...

Nebraska Women’s Basketball Preview: #1 UCLA Bruins

Hayden Rooney Nebraska takes on #1 UCLA to start off their first Big Ten conference road trip Last time out, the Huskers struggled to find offense in the first half and then fought back in the second, but the damage had been done. Ultimately, falling 72-61 to unbeaten #17 Georgia Tech. Nebraska takes on a very impressive UCLA team to start off conference road games, who is also still undefeated. This matchup could be interesting, depending on who’s healthy for UCLA. Lauren Betts, their star...

Huskers Pinstripe Bowl Recap – Not This Time: NEBRASKA 20 Boston College 15

Andy Ketterson Managed to get that scoreboard shot moments before they turned them off. Just another Festivus Husker miracle on an afternoon where the breaks didn’t kill them. Sure, it would’ve been wonderful to build on that 20-2 lead and cruise to a blowout – and it appeared to be on the table. But when Boston College drove 64 yards with a few chunk plays for a touchdown, blocked a punt, and then quickly scored another to cut that 20-2 lead to 20-15 late in...

Instant Reaction: Nebraska Wins the Pinstripe Bowl Over Boston College 20-15!

Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images Our beloved Huskers finish at 7-6! In a significant milestone for Nebraska football, the Huskers clinched a memorable bowl game victory, marking their return to postseason play and breaking a notable drought. The game, played in challenging field conditions that turned routine tackles into 83-yard slides, showcased several promising developments for the program’s future. The most notable revelation came through the offensive coordinator’s performance, with Dana Holgerson’s system displaying a marked improvement in tempo and execution. The offense demonstrated a...

Huskers First Half Recap – Goofy But Ahead: NEBRASKA 13 Boston College 2

Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images It wasn’t pretty but that’s who we are. Onward. A first trip to ever to Yankee stadium and, of course, I took it in December to watch the Huskers. Why? Because nothing else would make sense. The first trip to Yankee Stadium for the Huskers since 1962, however? It’s made nothing but complete sense for a group whose path has not just been crossed but dug, pissed and shat on by black cats for the last decade or so. However,...

HUSKERS vs. Boston College- 2024? Let’s Do This One Last Time!: Pre Pinstripe Bowl Game Vibes

The Afro Thunder seal of approval | Stephen Bruce Hell, the bowl games have better than the playoff so far – why should ours be any different? And it would be so un-Husker-like to snag that winning record with an easy dub 🙂 It’s 6-6 Nebraska vs. 7-5 Boston College playing for the championship of trophies named after the Steinbrenners and I don’t care. We’re bowling, baby. Yes, it’s a pretty crappy day. Somewhere between 45 and 50 with a steady drizzle, some fans are...

Nebraska Football Game Thread: Pinstripe Bowl against Boston College

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Nate M. Quick Thoughts: My prediction below is probably too optimistic but I’m a big believer in what Dana Holgorsen has done with this offense. While there was a jettison on defense through the transfer portal, the fact that Nash Hutmacher and Ty Robinson will still be there gives me some confidence. Boston College did not lose much in the portal with the exception of their starting quarterback who got injured and then benched in November. So there’s that. Nate...

See you in a few hours, Yankee Stadium. Jill: A bowl game? A bowl game! Now for...
