| The Huskers corrected their rough start at home with a 4-0 weekend, have the Mavs & Illinois ahead, and Billie is chasing records everywhere. Join in as we chat about that and more. Welcome back for show #3 at 8:00PM CST this evening! We’ll review a successful home weekend as the Huskers swept Northern Colorado (2), North Dakota and Creighton to raise their record to 16-12. We’ll talk about their hot bats and Caitlyn Olensky’s rise and other things we observed. In addition, we’ll talk... |
| Dylan Widger-USA TODAY Sports A well deserved bump for the Nebrasketball coach It was announced today the the University of Nebraska will be extending head men’s basketball coach Fred Hoiberg’s contract. A much deserved bump for a coach that has taken Nebrasketball to heights we have not seen in years. The new contract will extend through 2028-2029 and will pay Fred $4.25 million next season with annual increases in the subsequent years. Hoiberg is coming of the best season of his Husker coaching career and... |
| Photo by David Berding/Getty Images What team is going to be a bracket breaker this year? It always throws me off when I’m watching or talking about a college sport post season and my kids don’t know what I’m talking about. And then I realize that because they are 10 and 7, they have not lived through very many Nebraska post seasons (with the exception of volleyball). They’ve been asking me for a couple weeks now if it was March Madness each time that the... |
| Nebraska head coach Mark Manning put some tweets out there, calling out Penn State’s “gamesmanship” of the NCAA seeding and allocation process. | Photo by Shane Bevel/NCAA Photos via Getty Images For Nebraska Head Coah Mark Manning, the system at play in NCAA wrestling isn’t working and he wants to see changes because it’s too easy to game Last week when the NCAA announced the at-large bids to the NCAA tournament, one name was conspicuously missing — Nebraska’s Bubba Wilson. Ranked #18 in the country... |
| There is so much to talk about this week. Continued fallout and discussion of Trev Alberts leaving for Texas A&M – thrown directly in our face because the NCAA selection committees for both men’s and women’s basketball has chosen to put Nebraska up against the Texas A&M Aggies in both sports in the opening round of the NCAA tourneys. Matt Rhule had his opening press conference today for spring football, and boy was it a doozy. He wants to be in Nebraska. His son is... |

| What’a ya’ think, Todd? | Cyrus Tickle Nebraska has a good week, with the promise of even better days ahead! Shockers and Colonels, Oh Boy! Nicholls – technically Nicholls State, but they prefer to be called Nicholls – rolled into Lincoln from Thibodaux, Louisiana sporting a 17 and 3 record. Wichita State was sitting at 9-5 when the Cornhuskers met up with them earlier in the week, including wins over Iowa, Long Beach State, and one of last year’s College World Series qualifiers, Oral Roberts.... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Nebraska football head coach Matt Rhule had his introductory spring press conference today and BOY HOWDY does he know how to talk to a fanbase. You might argue that the biggest storyline this week will be Nebraska’s two basketball teams who are slated to play against Texas A&M in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. This isn’t happen chance, given the news that athletic director Trev Alberts left for Aggieville earlier this month. There’s been a lot of comments... |
| Nebraska heads to Kansas City this week to participate in the NCAA Championships. | Photo by Jay LaPrete/NCAA Photos/NCAA Photos via Getty Images Nebraska qualified nine of its 10 starters with six Top-10 seeds, including 1-seed Ridge Lovett at 149 pounds If you’re a wrestling fan, March is the best month of the year. With conference weekend behind us, we’re heading into the NCAA Championships this week starting Thursday morning in Kansas City. The Huskers are one of a number of contenders that will challenge... |
| Dillon Galloway The Husker men and women found out their seeding and opponent…which seems a little too much of a coincidence Well, the Husker men and women are both going dancing. And their opponents are…I mean their opponent is…Texas A&M?!? Yep, the same school our athletic director just jilted us for. Seems like a little too much of a coincidence. What do you think? Corn Flakes Huskers in the NFL: Maliek Collins and Jack Stoll find new homesThe new league year began in the National... |
| Nick Wosika-USA TODAY Sports Well this should be good After just missing the NCAA Tournament last year and battling their way in the WNIT, Nebraska has found their way back in the Big Dance. Nebraska picks up the #6 seed in the Regional 1 in Albany bracket. They will play #11 seeded Texas A&M in Corvallis, Oregon. Time and date still to be set. Oh, if this looks oddly familiar it’s because it’s the same matchup the men drew. Coincidence? I don’t think so. I’m... |
| Big Red Sweep Colonels | Nebraska Athletic Department Will Walsh once again comes up big with his second home run in two days When both teams take their batting practice before the game inside, that’s a pretty good indication that there might be better things to do outside than play baseball. When you look at the team from Thibodaux, Louisiana all shivering in their sweatshirts (they didn’t have coats!), you know they would rather be back home! Despite the cold windy day, and the shivers,... |
