Nebraska Baseball 2024 Preview: Coaches

Nebraska Athletic Department The return of some familiar names! With the opening game of the 2024 Nebraska Cornhusker baseball season less than two weeks away, it is time to take a look at what we can expect to see on the field this season. Change is a given in college athletics, and perhaps no changes will impact this year’s Nebraska baseball team more than those that were made with the coaching staff. In his press conference at Charles Schwab Field after a 4-2 loss to...

Corn Flakes: Burkhead’s Retirement, Football Playing Tracksters, and the Supernovas

Photo by Eric Francis/Getty Images Alos, what are the chances that the Huskers make the NCAA Tournament? Did you see that Rex Burkhead announced his retirement from the NFL?

The Best Husker Sports Update Talk Show In The Universe! Wooooo!

Todd and I showed up well prepared as always. I was so well prepared that I forgot to put on my robe and had to take a moment to change my garb for our live show on Monday night, the best Husker Update show in the universe. Todd has been watching more basketball lately than he ever has in his life. He genuinely seems shocked by the amount of basketball he’s watched. We spent the first part of the show talking about men’s basketball because...

Corn Flakes: A Close Miss at Illinois, Fog, and a Positive Story About Youth Sports

Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images A loss is still a loss, but Nebrasketball showed they can play well on the road Good Monday morning from a foggy Nebraska. We’ve been dealing with difficult driving conditions for most of the past week. The fog lifted for a bit on Sunday, only to have a new advisory issued for Monday. I guess we all need a reminder to slow down and take our time?!? I’m taking Ranchhand 3 to the spine doctor today. When he was a...

A Resilient, But Not Resilient Enough, Nebraska Basketball Team Loses in Overtime to #14 Ranked Illinois

Photo by Justin Casterline/Getty Images It’s hard to win on the road in the Big Ten Conference. The 84-87 loss in overtime to #14 ranked Illinois gave you some insight on why it can be so hard. We can start with the usual disadvantages when playing on the road like sleeping in a hotel bed instead of your own warm bed. The food isn’t the same and you likely had to take a plane to get there. The sights and sounds of the gym also...

Nebraska Men’s Basketball in Matchup at Fourteenth Ranked Illinois: Preview and Game Thread

Joseph Cress/Iowa City Press-Citizen / USA TODAY NETWORK I said that the game against Wisconsin was a “must win” and the Huskers came through in the clutch for a win over 6th ranked Wisconsin. However, that was at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln where Nebraska has one of the best home court advantages in the country. Today’s game is not at PBA which does not bode well for the Huskers as they have had trouble finding ways to win away from PBA this season. The...

The Tragic True Story Of Denny Clark – The Goat of 1905 Michigan

Another history video. This one is not a pleasant story, to be honest, but it tells the story of one of the biggest goats of all time. Summary: The story details the tragic life of William Dennison “Denny” Clark, a football player for the University of Michigan, who became infamous for a critical mistake during the 1905 game against the University of Chicago, which was hyped as the “first greatest game of the century.” Coming into the game, Michigan was on a 56-game unbeaten streak,...

Nebraska WBB Hands Rutgers Their First Conference Win With a 71-70 Score

Photo by Matthew Holst/Getty Images Losing at home to a team that was previously winless in conference play? Ugh. This is a horrible, terrible, no-good, very bad loss for a Husker team that had their sights set on an NCAA tournament berth. Cold shooting, poor defense, and a general lack of energy doomed Nebraska at home. I don’t know what else to say. The Huskers gave the Knights their first win in conference play. Rutgers is now 1-10 in the Big Ten. First Quarter the...

The Huskers improved to 14-7 (6-4 Big Ten) on Wednesday against the Boilermakers. It was a game that had a lot of good, also a lot of things that could be improved, but a win is a win.
