| Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images I believe a lot of Nebraska fans didn’t think that quarterback Jeff Sims could have as awful a game as he had at Minnesota, but there he was, giving Colorado most of their points. Nebraska’s offense scored 10 points against Minnesota, and now a whole 14 points against Colorado! Maybe they’ll score 21 next week against Northern Illinois and that uphill trend will continue! Overall another poor game, especially for the offense. Nebraska’s defense looked good given that they were... |
| “Good game, well played”. It’s suddenly tougher to see the path to 6-6. | Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images The real score was 36-14. I’m so mad that 1) we lost to the Buffy’s and 2) Urban almost nailed it that I’m not actually forming words anymore, but being told to watch my language. Let’s get this out of the way right out of the gate. I have nothing against buffaloes. I love Custer State Park and Dances With Wolves. Of course those magnificent beasts... |
| Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images Yes. This is the battle for the soul of America. Or I should say it’s a battle for common sense as we kept on hearing how Colorado is the best team in the history of sports. This is a battle cry to not be prisoner of the moment. At the end of the first half it is Colorado up by 13. This has more to do with Jeff Sims than anything else in this game. It is embarrassing. Six turnovers... |
| Tim Heitman-USA TODAY Sports Welcome to our second Game Thread of the 2023 Nebraska football season. It’s the second one of the Matt Rhule era and it comes against Deion Sanders in his first season at Colorado. Nate M’s Quick Synopsis: I was wrong last week when I said that Nebraska had nothing to lose. Because Nebraska’s fan base lost its sanity. I think there will be a lot revealed in this matchup for both Colorado and Nebraska. Will Colorado be able to put up... |

| Photo by David Berding/Getty Images It’s time for the Huskers to leave Boulder with a victory. Well that was unfortunate. I really hate that Minnesota and PJ Fleck put a stain on my otherwise impeccable record. That’s alright though, we are on to Colorado and this week is sure to be a win! You might ask, “but what about Coach Prime and Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter?” That is a valid question, but not to worry my friends the Huskers are going to go in... |
| Matt Krohn-USA TODAY Sports I’m sorry to report this to you on a wonderful Friday morning but unfortunately Matt Rhule did not get any of your coaching advice you tried sending him on Twitter or Instagram. Final item from Matt Rhule out of media availability this week before Nebraska heads to Boulder: He deletes Twitter and Instagram from his phone at the start of the football season. (So he’s not seeing your advice.) — Mitch Sherman (@mitchsherman) September 7, 2023 So I suggest sending him... |
| Joseph Cress/Iowa City Press-Citizen / USA TODAY NETWORK Great defense and special teams. But still with a Brian Ferentz offense. In recent seasons, Iowa football has been a dichotomy of an elite defense, great special teams and an offense that is, well, offensive to the point of being a joke to the rest of college football. Adding to the comedy value is that Iowa’s offensive coordinator Brian Ferentz is the son of the head coach Kirk. Ferentz will eventually retire as Iowa’s winningest football coach,... |
| Scott Bruhn Creighton were without Big East Player of the Year, Norah Sis #4 Nebraska 3 vs #16 Creighton 1 – 25-9, 25-13, 23-25, 25-20 Coach Cook thought that beating the other college teams in Nebraska was an accomplishment worth working towards. He talked about it leading up to the match against Creighton and used it to focus his players. After beating Omaha last Wednesday in Memorial Stadium and Creighton tonight in Devaney, John Cook unofficially deemed his team the state champions. His team was... |

| Gabe was ready to play but the staff’s lead back was taking the snaps. | Matt Krohn-USA TODAY Sports If Husker one-score games were a movie, this would be the equivalent of rewatching Bio-Dome and Gigli again and again. Last Thursday, the Matt Rhule Era began and many notes sure felt like the last era. It was a little surreal watching it with my son in a bar in Historic Downtown Durango, Colorado where the Husker gear stuck out like a sore thumb and beyond... |
| Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule was disappointed with the outcome of his team’s season-opening loss to Minnesota, but he was impressed with the performance of quarterback Jeff Sims and how he is handling the loss. “He’s not the first quarterback that’s ever thrown three interceptions,” Rhule said of Sims. “The great ones bounce back from it even better, so I think you find out about people when they go through a little bit of adversity. He had not been trending that way, got in the... |
