Fall Stories of HUSKERS FOOTBALL: Archie Wilson Is Going To Be FUN
| Photo by Martin Keep/AFL Photos via Getty Images Huskers fans are hoping – PRAYING – for a sharp uptick in special teams improvement. Punter was actually solid in 2024. We could still be looking at a huge upgrade. The first Nebraska Cornhuskers practice has ended and, other than injury updates, there’s no real surprises or announcements; it’s almost a continuation of Big 10 Football Media Days as far as just every thing being happy days ahead. Don’t get me wrong. Seeing everyone in the shorts... |
B1G Media Days: Will Nebraska Ever Welcome Scott Frost Home?
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Matt Rhule lamented on the podium that Scott Frost’s exit from Lincoln is made more difficult being from the state. He thinks Frost should be able to return to a state without venom. Do you? Most everyone knew it was coming. Maybe we weren’t sure who would ask the question, but Matt Rhule was going to be asked about Scott Frost’s comments at Big 12 Media Days as sure as Dylan Raiola was going to be under center against UTEP... |

Nebraska Reacts Survey: How Much Do You Care About Big 10 Football Media Days?
| Lucas Peltier-Imagn Images About 50/50 or so if Corn Nation’s fans spoke for everyone. And don’t we always? Since I was on my way to Vegas, I figured testing the waters for actual interest in the event beyond press was timely stuff for a summer poll. Also, in an article posted earlier in the day, I had already offered that there wasn’t much new to be learned at these events, rather they are mostly a chance for coaches players pump some optimism into our veins... |
Nebraska Needs to Lean on Its Offensive Line to Succeed in 2025
| Jeffrey Becker-Imagn Images As the calendar ticks closer to August 29th and Nebraska’s highly anticipated opener at Arrowhead Stadium, one truth is becoming clear: if the Cornhuskers are going to take the next step under Matt Rhule, it will be on the back of their offensive line. And that’s exactly how it should be. The face of this transformation is Henry Lutovsky—a classic offensive lineman in every sense. Tough. Nasty. Unselfish. Under the guidance of offensive line coach Donovan Raiola, Lutovsky represents more than just... |
Friday Flakes: A Starting Offensive Line for Nebraska Might Be Emerging and My Favorite Hulk Hogan Movie
| Dylan Widger-Imagn Images At Big Ten Media Days this past week, Matt Rhule made the comment that if Nebraska were to play a game today that Tyler Knaak would be the starting right tackle for the Huskers. Add that to the fact that Henry Lutovsky was one of three player representatives (plus his starting experience) for the Huskers at the media event in Las Vegas and I think we can start making some assumptions about the presumptive starting offensive line. This is all subject to... |
Five Heart Podcast from the Home of the 2025 Big Ten Media Days

It was her first time attending, and she offered a behind-the-scenes look, sharing anecdotes about mingling with media members, seeing Nebraska’s contingent up close, and even getting a question in to Iowa’s Kirk Ferentz. Minnie enthusiastically shared her impressions of the event, including her admiration for the charisma of coaches like PJ Fleck and Matt... |
B1G Volleyball Announces Preseason Awards Ahead of Media Days Next Week
| Dylan Widger-Imagn Images 4 Huskers were named on the Preseason All-Conference Team to start the 2025 season With B1G Media Days coming up, the conference has announced their Preseason Poll and their Preseason All-Conference Team to kick off the 2025 Volleyball season. While the reigning National Champion in Penn State comes from the B1G this season, a lot of eyes, maybe even all, will be on the Huskers and what they will do this season after John Cook’s retirement. This will be the first year,... |
A new look coming for Corn Nation in August
| Our coverage remains the same but with a new look In just a couple of weeks, Corn Nation is switching to a new platform as part of SB Nation’s network-wide move to a new publishing platform. This will change the look of the site and also make it faster and more reliable on any device you use. This is an upgrade. When you land on the site, it will look cleaner – less clunky, with more white space, a better ad experience with faster load... |
B1G Media Days: Henry Lutovsky Knows The Line’s Not For Everyone
| Photo by Dustin Satloff/Getty Images But the Huskers returning starter at right guard wouldn’t have it any other way. And his pride in his position is matched by the seriousness with which he takes his responsibilities. I can’t remember where I recently read this, but the speaker in the article had mused about the mindset required to be an offensive lineman. Once recruited, there is seldom a fast track to starting. Most will spend 2-3 seasons hitting the weight room, getting bigger, learning the intricacies... |
Five Weeks Until Cincinnati: Nebraska Football’s 5th Most Indispensable Player – A Kicker
| Dylan Widger-Imagn Images Welcome to this twelve-week countdown where we count the weeks until Nebraska takes on the Cincinnati Bearcats at Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday, August 28th. This will be my list of Nebraska football’s 12 most indispensable players. They may not be the best. They may not even end up playing this season (which would likely be bad for Nebraska). These are the players that need to step up this season for Nebraska to take that next step. Countdown Archive 12 Weeks: Punter Archie... |
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball Camps, Baseball Records and a Personal Victory
| Dylan Widger-Imagn Images Don’t forget the joke of the week… For those of you who read my article last week about my upcoming golf scramble with my in-laws, I can finally reveal what happened last Saturday. I know, absolutely none of you were on the edge of your seat rooting for me. That’s ok, I’m going to brag about it anyway. It’s not often that I get to anymore because I don’t have many opportunities. Having said that, my team captured the “Panorama Cup”. That’s... |
