Dylan Widger-USA TODAY Sports But it might be slightly tempered… Matt Rhule has done a terrific job of building a program that isn’t in good condition after he gets there. Usually between years 1 and 2 there is a massive jump in both wins and overall statistics. This is a much different program, however. This...

Stephen Bruce Looks like a beautiful day in Lincoln, Nebraska. Nebraska 7 – UTEP 0 Scoring drive 12 plays, 72 yards, 5:54 Nebraska scored on a 5-yard run by Dante Dowdell.

Dylan Widger-USA TODAY Sports Well, the Huskers are 1-0. It’s not much, except an improvement over several years of losing the first game of the season. And on top of that, 107 Huskers saw some sort of action in the 40-7 win over the University of Texas – El Paso. Dylan Raiola looked as advertised,...

Stephen Bruce Well actually, I know exactly where I’ll be. I’m going to be in Section 67 of North Stadium with my two oldest kids introducing them to what I hope is an angry Nebraska football atmosphere. Prior to this week I thought my “hate” for Iowa and Colorado were on the same wavelength. But...

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....

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...

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images What a disappointing loss. It was a great game – as a college football fan – both teams played hard, physical, Big Ten football. It appears Nebraska isn’t as ready as we thought to win close game like this. Stupid penalties that gave Illinois free yardage. The one that stood...

Dylan Widger-Imagn Images But some problems may have been exposed which aren’t easily fixed. Let’s talk about it and maybe vent a little. Join me 8PM CST Tuesday as Husker Happy Hour deals with decidedly unhappy 31-24 loss to Illinois and looks ahead to Purdue. Things covered will include: Why the offense may be better...

Photo by Zach Bolinger/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Our picks for today’s game Jarek: This is a good game to hopefully get right back on track, and a good way to ease into the road schedule for Nebraska.
