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...

Wrestling: Huskers on Five-Dual Win Streak with 28-9 Win Over Illini

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...

Nebraska Women’s Basketball Preview: Rutgers

Photo by Matthew Holst/Getty Images Nebraska and Rutgers get ready to rumble in Lincoln Another Saturday, another Nebraska Women’s basketball game. 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. Saturday afternoon, Rutgers makes the trip to Lincoln carrying a 12 game losing streak that they’re desperate to break. Can Nebraska hold the Scarlet Knights from...

Friday Flakes: Power Five Head Coaching Job or NFL Coordinator Job — Which Would You Choose?

Jason Snow / The Patriot Ledger / USA TODAY NETWORK In case you missed it, Jeff Hafley has left his position of the head coach of Boston College to go to the Green Bay Packers to be a defensive coordinator. My first thought was that it feels like it would be a demotion. To go from the head of an organization to then choose a different position in which you are no longer the boss. However, today’s college football landscape surely makes things difficult to...

Nebraska Basketball Down 16 at Half to Wisconsin—Comes Back in Another Historic Win this Season at Home

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Tonight was a good night. Nebraska was down 16 at half and at one time was down 19 points and found a way to come back and beat the sixth ranked Wisconsin Badgers in Lincoln by margin of eight points in a 80-72 win. Yep. That’s math folks. It was a story that every one expected in a win. They expected Keisei Tominaga to only score two points on seven shots. We all expected him to play less than half...

Nebraska Men’s Basketball in Matchup with the Sixth Ranked Wisconsin Badgers: Preview and Game Thread

Joseph Cress/Iowa City Press-Citizen / USA TODAY NETWORK Is this game a must win for Nebraska? I’m starting to think so. Their inability to win a conference game on the road makes these games at home a requirement to even be in the conversation to make the NCAA tournament. One of the most recent bracketologists had Nebraska as one of the “Last Four In”. Until Nebraska actually pulls it off, it appears to be safe to say that Nebraska will not win a road conference...

Thursday Flakes: Luxury Trains, Weekend Getaways and Hawaiian Tourist Fees

Let’s get fancy in this week’s Travel Flakes. I have never ridden Amtrak in the United States, VIA Rail in Canada or fancy luxury trains in the Middle East or Japan but I have been on passenger trains in Spain, Czechia and Slovakia because they are going to places I want to visit. It was super convenient to get from city to city and town to town but something like this in the United States and Canada is practically non-existent. Mexico is very well connected...
