Report Card: Colorado Golden Buffaloes 36, Huskers 14

Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images The Huskers gift-wrapped this game for the Buffs, who capitalized. Merry Christmas. I really thought Nebraska could open the season 4-0. I really did. And in my pollyanna world, I see glimpses of why I felt that way. I see Nebraska averaging 5.4 yards per carry. I see a defense that forced eight sacks, eleven total tackles for loss and four quarterback hurries. And then reality hits when I see seven turnovers in two games by quarterback Jeff Sims, and...

It Begins and Ends with the Quarterback Position Going Forward for Nebraska Football

Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images Accountability will be a word we get to throw around in the coming weeks. Especially after the 22 point loss to Colorado. The 22 point margin was not a result of major deficiencies up and down the roster for Nebraska. It all comes down to one position. Quarterback. Colorado has a potential Heisman trophy candidate on their side. Through eight quarters, Nebraska appears to have a turnover machine who has trouble catching snaps, handing the ball off and making smart...

Corn Nation Over Reaction: Nebraska is Far from Rocky Mountain High After Loss to Colorado

Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images The Battle for the Soul of the Nation, I believe one colleague put it on Corn Nation. The epitome of all that is good in the world and, well…Colorado. 36 to 14. This one will haunt us for some time. Turnovers that led to Buffalo points. A field goal that clangs off the upright. bonehead error after bonehead error. But a defense that did its best to keep the game close to try to give the Nebraska offense a legitimate...

#4 Nebraska Volleyball Sweeps Long Beach State

Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Tough defense and a strong attack got the job done. Tyler Hildebrand and Long Beach State came to Lincoln to see if they could knock off another Top 5 team early this season. It wasn’t meant to be as #4 Nebraska got the sweep 25-18, 25-8, 25-21. Defense was the name of the game for the Huskers once again. This is no surprise as Nebraska leads the nation in opponents hitting percentage. They held The Beach to .055 in the...

Matt Rhule’s Post-Game Press Conference Notes: Nebraska vs. Colorado

Photo by Dustin Bradford/Getty Images Opening Statement: Rhule congratulated Coach Sanders and Colorado. They are a well put together team and explosive. He talked to a coach after teh game that he has gone up against and that coach mentioned that it was very uncharacteristic of a Rhule coached team to have so many turnovers. Rhule responded, “same as last week. I think we are better than what we have shown. But what does that mean? It’s just words. I told the team. We are...

Instant Postgame Reaction to Nebraska’s Horrifying 36-14 Loss To Colorado

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...

Colorado 136 Nebraska 0 Recap

“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...

The Second Half Game Thread: Matt Rhule vs. Deion Sanders

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...

Deion Sanders vs. Matt Rhule – The Battle for the Soul of a Nation: Nebraska – Colorado Game Thread

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...

Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: Colorado

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...

Friday Flakes: If You Want to Give Matt Rhule Coaching Advice then Send Him an Email

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...
