A view from Nebraska’s wrestle-offs. | Dylan Guenther / CORN NATION A number of anticipated matchups took place as Nebraska looks to set its 2024-25 starting lineup Nebraska held its finals for its wrestle-offs where the winners from last week moved on to face the first-string wrestlers. Before anything, it’s worth noting that winning this match doesn’t guarantee a starting spot, but this match does serve as a pivotal data point for the coaches to use as they make their determinations.

And wow, what a competitive week of B1G football, with seven games with spreads of a touchdown or less!

College Football – What To Watch And Early Saturday Game Thread!!!!

Photo by Scott Taetsch/Getty Images There are some wild games this weekend. Ohio State vs Penn State The biggest game of the day is early, Ohio State versus Penn State. The line favors Ohio State by three, and it’s going to be interesting to see if James Franklin can finally get over this hump of not beating Ohio State ever. The Buckeyes looked a little vulnerable against Nebraska last week, and Penn State’s defense should do a decent job. Can the Nittany Lions score enough?...

Nebraska Volleyball Sweeps Wisconsin

Garrett Hawkins The Husker blocks and digs kept coming at critical moments Nebraska 3 vs. Wisconsin 0- 25-21, 25-22, 25-19 The sweep was a surprise. It was high quality volleyball just like we expected from these two teams, but a straight set win was a unexpected. Nebraska stayed calm through each up and down. Wisconsin had runs, but the Huskers stayed the course and came up with a dig or block when they needed it. Those two components, blocking and digging really made a difference....

NEBRASKA (5-3) vs UCLA (2-5) – The Time Is Now: HOW TO WATCH

Let’s go BOWLING Four more shots at bowl eligibility – but what do you say we get this done on the first one? There’s no other way to put it. Sure, the Huskers have four games left, but the best shot at ending the bowl drought is tomorrow. UCLA is 2-5 with only one Big 10 conference victory so far.

That may be a tall order for Husker fans, but if you believe it will happen. These are your reasons why: #1 THAT HUSKER DEFENSE The Blackshirts showed...

Can Nebraska make a statement against UCLA?

Neville E. Guard-Imagn Images Who will pitch up at Memorial Stadium on Saturday? Will it be the team that played against Indiana and looked flat or the fire-in-the-belly team that almost beat Ohio State? This Jekyll and Hyde Nebraska team can be downright terrible or majestic with little in between. UCLA will present a new challenge in that they will likely be throwing the ball exclusively due to a nonfunctioning running game. If the team that almost put Ryan Day out of a job pitches...

As we know, Nebraska currently sits at 5-3, with three losses against Top 25 teams. UCLA on the other hand is sitting at 2-5. One might...
