| From home-grown walk-on to Blackshirt starter, John Bullock returns for his senior season as an expected leader. | Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images The middle of Tony White’s 3-3-5 lost two multi-year starters but has no shortage of dawgs ready to jump in there and make their own legacies. The linebacker position is one which at first glance appears to have some big holes to fill. But a look down the roster shows a pile of talent in the wings which may just be getting... |

I wasn’t all that excited for it as we weren’t in the path of totality this time, but my students and I went out and checked it out and also watched NASA’s live stream and it was pretty cool. They were so excited about it and loved seeing all the videos when the sun was covered. It was a lot of fun and... |
| Nebraska All-American Antrell Taylor (left) will likely move down to 157 pounds next season to replace three-time All-American Peyton Robb in the lineup. | Getty Images Nebraska returns eight of ten starters from a year ago but will have question marks at both 165 and 174 pounds With only one senior on the roster and 14 true freshmen in redshirt this past season, Nebraska still finished in 9th-place at the 2024 NCAA Championships, earning five All-American honors, the second most in the field behind champions... |
| Nebraska Athletics How did it take this long???? It was a Friday night many will remember for a long time. Takes you back to some of the Friday night performances of yesteryear. Povich, Waldron, Watson, Chamberlain, Komine. And now Sears. Husker Aces who have turned in some all time memorable performances at Haymarket Park. This one garnered Sears some much overdue recognition by the Big Ten Conference. With his record now 6-0 and his ERA a minuscule 1.14 ERA, and 57 Ks vs 9 walks... |
| Steven Branscombe-USA TODAY Sports Husker land another big man to compete in the Big Ten While the Huskers seem to be losing a handful of players to the transfer portal, they are also doing their best to fill those roles. Luckily, it seems that their work has started to pay of and pay off in a big way. Today, Fred Hoiberg and his staff were able to get the commitment of 6’10” junior Andrew Morgan. Andrew comes to the Cornhuskers from North Dakota State University... |
| Xinhua/Zhao Hanrong via Getty Images Are you travelling to see the solar eclipse? In 2017, the path of totality for a solar eclipse travelled through Nebraska. Ranchdude, the Ranchhands and I drove a couple hours south to be part of the festivities. It was amazing and I recommend anyone who is close to such an event go an see it. Today, another eclipse travels across the U.S., this time from Mexico to Maine. Are you travelling to see the eclipse? 2024 Solar Eclipse If you... |
| Hamilton Reibnold A fantastic effort comes up just short but with the Big 10 regular season race now at full speed, there’s no time to dwell on what could have been. This time, in a very different way, Penn State’s Kaitlyn Morrison homered for the second time in two days. On Saturday, it was a solo shot which briefly got the Lions back in the game before being blown halfway back to State College. Today, it was a 2-run blast to take the Big 10... |
| Case Sanderson knocks his first college home run today. | Nebraska Athletic Department Nebraska couldn’t match Ohio State’s effort today, but still win the series Looking to remain undefeated in this still young Big Ten season, Nebraska sent junior Drew Christo out to face the Ohio State Buckeyes on a partly cloudy, 60-degree Sunday afternoon. Ohio State had seven lefthanded hitters in the starting lineup today, as well as a switch-hitter, to face the right hander from Elkhorn. The league-leading Cornhuskers were looking to complete... |
| Joscelyn Hynes The Huskers erupt on the Nittany Lions in the 5th with Billie’s bomb capping a 10-2 thrashing. The biggest swing of the day was the last one as Billie Andrews unleashed a no-doubt rocket which cleared the left field fence with room enough to fit a dump truck under it. Or an elephant. Or something else really big. You get the idea. It completed a 2-4, 2 RBI, 1 run scored day for Andrews even if she did have to wait a moment... |
| Dylan Carey sparks Nebraska victory. | Nebraska Athletic Department Nebraska comes from behind with a Dylan Carey home run providing the spark Still feeling very good less than 24-hours from one of the best Nebraska pitching performances in at least the last 40 years, the Nebraska Cornhuskers took the field for game two against the Ohio State Buckeyes looking for a second straight victory. Back to work. @AuroraAgNetwork | #GBR pic.twitter.com/OqV1Abn5OB — Nebraska Baseball (@HuskerBaseball) April 6, 2024 More often than not, the wind is... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images A high-performing group is almost completely back to wreak even more havoc in 2024 The Blackshirts were the strength of the 2023 Huskers and the defensive line was arguably the strength of the Blackshirts. The vast majority of the snaps and production from a high-performing group in 2023 returns for 2024. Have they reached their potential or is there more Coach Knighton can get out of them? Roster Changes/Losses Ru’Quan Buckley (junior) moved from the defensive line to offensive line... |
| Nebraska Athletic Department The Buckeyes never looked comfortable in the 3-0 loss. It’s Friday night and 62 degrees, and wind blowing in at Haymarket Park. A nationally ranked Husker team has its pitcher trotting out to the mound with a 1.36 ERA, and a dominant pitcher for the opposing team waiting to show his stuff. No, we aren’t watching Shane Komine in 2002, but its sure starting to get that kind of a feel with 5-0 Brett Sears takes the mound for NU as we... |
