| Photo by David Berding/Getty Images The final score against Minnesota was nausea-inducing. However, there were two players who displayed lots of promise. YIKES. The offensive performance against Minnesota was downright offensive. The OL looked overpowered for much of the game. The receivers looked like they belonged at UNK, not UNL. Jeff Sims looked like mobile Andrew Bunch out there. I’m sure the kids have been ripped enough already, so I’m just gonna move in a positive direction: THE DEFENSE!!!!! The boys came out firing on... |
| Photo by David Berding/Getty Images How confident are we feeling for this week? How was your Labor Day? I spent mine relaxing and trying to get things ready for the week after a fun and busy weekend. Now that we’ve all had the long weekend to breathe after the Minnesota game and to absorb what Colorado did to TCU, how are you feeling about the game on Saturday? I have to admit, I’m a little nervous, but I think the Huskers can still get it... |
| JOIN US AT 8 PM ON YOUTUBE! Tonight’s episode will be about the beginning of the 2023 College football season. Nebraska lost their first game to Minnesota in horrible fashion, allowing the Gophers two turnovers and a 10-point comeback. Colorado won their first game 45-42 over TCU. Their offense lead by Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter looked much better than anyone expected. Then there is the issue of the games being shortened. Look at this: Breaking down the TCU/CU broadcast: Game length: 3 hrs 36... |
| Photo by David Berding/Getty Images What do you do when your biggest adversary is yourself? Nebraska’s loss to Minnesota continues to loom in every Husker fan’s mind. Why and how did the Huskers loss that game? This is the first Corn Nation Over Reaction full episode in two years, or ever since Jon’s tree-side and bathroom videos became so popular. This week, Hoss Freakin’ Reuter is back as he and Greg discuss Nebraska’s 13-10 season opening loss to at Minnesota. What went wrong? What went... |
| Photo by Bailey Hillesheim/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Would have. Could have. Should have. But didn’t win. The emotional reaction to Minnesota’s 13-10 comeback victory over Nebraska is raw and irrational: Nebraska’s football program is cursed. And, of course, the corollary: There’s no hope. ‘Eff everything. Go Big Red. But emotion isn’t rational, and the rational recognizes that Nebraska had this game under control for nearly the entire second half. The rational goes back to the line that is tiring to nearly every Husker fan:... |
| Matt Krohn-USA TODAY Sports Did you know that the sayings “sleep on it” or “I’m going to sleep on it” actually have legitimate scientific backing? Studies have shown (and no I’m not going to cite them you weirdo) that when we are upset or have an important decision to make that we should always sleep on it. Why? Because through the process of sleep our brain starts detaching the emotional attachments to prior days events. That’s why most of the time, though not all of... |
| Photo by Bailey Hillesheim/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images An all-to-familiar 13-10 walk off loss for the Cornhusker sends Coach Rhule and his staff back to the drawing board after Week 1. I’m a pessimist by nature. I try not to be, and I know the toll my neverending angst can cause to those around me. Don’t argue with me that a glass is half full, because I will walk away knowing it is half empty. Some of it is life in general. Wanting more for... |
| Head coach Matt Rhule of the Nebraska Cornhuskers looks on against the Minnesota Golden Gophers in the first half at Huntington Bank Stadium on August 31, 2023 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. | Photo by David Berding/Getty Images Nebraska’s Matt Rhule era didn’t start like we all would have wanted, but maybe let’s pump the brakes a little on the doom and gloom Thursday night marked the start of the Matt Rhule era at Nebraska. Things started off slow before Nebraska took control with a big third... |
| Photo by Michael Hickey/Getty Images Welcome to our first Game Thread of the 2023 Nebraska football season. It’s the first one of the Matt Rhule era and it comes against P.J. Fleck in his sixth season at Minnesota. Nate M’s Quick Synopsis: I think Nebraska has nothing to lose in this game but a lot to win. P.J. Fleck has an established program in his sixth year and almost every advantage in this game. If Nebraska can get a lead then it could be theirs... |

| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images Life in and out of sports It may seem weird to start the “Sports Season” with a eulogy-esque like celebration of life, but things have taken an odd turn for me. This week celebrates Husker Volleyball playing in Memorial Stadium on Wednesday, while football kicks off its season at Minnesota on Thursday. Looks like we got a record-breaking @Huskervball match coming up this week! Volleyball Day in Nebraska is Wednesday. Looking forward to an unforgettable experience with the @Huskers @omavs... |
