| Raj Mehta-USA TODAY Sports After losing their top two offensive weapons to the transfer portal after spring practice, the outlook on Michigan State looks rather cloudy. After a magical 2021 season led by running back Kenneth Walker, reality hit hard for Michigan State last season. The Spartans fell from a New Years Six bowl game to a 5-7 record in 2022. And with only 13 returning starters as a result of losing two of their top offensive stars to the transfer portal after spring practice,... |
| Photo by James Black/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Most Nebraska fans know the names like Jeff Sims, Luke Reimer, Nick Henrich, Gabe Ervin Jr., Thomas Fidone and Ty Robinson. Those are as close to household names as there are on this Husker roster. I am probably missing a couple. However, below are five Huskers that are far from household names (as of today) that might be end up being known by the fanbase at large by the time the 2023 season is over. Some have... |
| Jon Johnston High school football is back! Akelo brings you your weekly recruiting update! In order for Nebraska football to come back, we need big time football players that can make big time plays. You do this by recruiting. This class, we have a gaggle of players I feel can be big time. Let’s see how they played this week! Jacory Barney Jr. The four-star wideout from Miami, Florida starred for his Miami Palmetto Panthers squad against Doral Academy. He made several tough catches in... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images The biggest (and first) line of defense Tony White’s 3-3-5 formation will soon be unleashed, so after getting to know the offense, now it is the defense’s turn. Having only three down linemen might not seem like a lot, especially against offenses in the B1G, but when “Back in Black” starts blaring as the Blackshirts take the field all hell is about to break loose. The defensive line, the guys responsible for filling all holes, the emergency plan to plug... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images It’s hard to complain when Nebraska has not one but two members of 247Sports’ True Freshman All-American Team. It’s almost time for kickoff across the country, which means it’s time to introduce the world to college football’s true freshman class. These are players who have “next” in college football. It might be from Week 1 of the season or it could be much later in the year, but these 247Sports Preseason True Freshman All-Americans are players who will have an... |
| Photo By Brendan Moran/Sportsfile via Getty Images Another week another fun video from the Husker Football twitter account. Here they are asking the players to impersonate their position coach. Some of the players definitely took advantage of the opportunity. Corey Campbell, E.J. Barthel and Garret McGwire took the brunt of it. My favorite part of the video? Was when the Offensive Linemen walked in and had the opportunity to impersonate Donovan Raiola. Their response? A big NOPE. Who had the best impression?? #GBR x #WhatsNExt!... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images This week, Jon’s in a lodge somewhere watching Cocaine Bear with and and reacting accordingly, so Greg called in some familiar faces to join him on the show this week. Todd is here, and he’s supposed to play the role of the crotchety old man, but he’s surprisingly pleasant and upbeat. And making his Five Heart debut is legendary Husker fan and all-around superb individual Brett Baker. Brett shares his thoughts on the Day by Day documentary among other Husker... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images The Pipeline looks to build new lines this season. My two-year-old daughter doesn’t know much about sports. I haven’t had the opportunity to teach her the highs and lows of football season. There is one thing my daughter does share with the Nebraska football team however, specifically the offensive line, the mutual love of PANCAKES! In previous articles I have given stats from returning members of a particular position, unfortunately I don’t have the knowledge of pancake blocks, sacks and... |
| Photo by Zach Bolinger/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images With only nine returning starters and a new coaching staff, 2023 looks like a rebuilding year in West Lafayette. Let’s give Jeff Brohm credit for turning a football program that was, well, PurDON’T into a competitive football program. The cast of characters post-Joe Tiller arguably did poor enough that you had to wonder if Purdue actually cared about football. Brohm was one of only three Purdue head coaches to have a winning record during the last 50... |
| Leaving the Big 12 was a big deal. As we took the shaft one more time, we at least had moments like these as an exit memory. | Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports So many pundits who make lots of money talking about it are screaming about how money & realignment are destroying college football. Is it really? “I think there could potentially be a cutoff where football tries to branch off and take the top 30 teams in the country is somebody’s opinion. That somebody... |
| Photo by Jeffrey Brown/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Well count me as surprised to learn that there will be blue on a Nebraska football uniform. It makes me sad. It makes me blue. Until I learned that Nebraska wore blue in the first game ever at Memorial Stadium against Oklahoma. Ok. Fine. I’ll give it a pass. Here is the full video which I suggest checking out. It has some fun memories from a few Husker fans. A century in the making.#GBR /// #TeamAdidas pic.twitter.com/lmEmbpITiz... |
| Photo by Louis Grasse/Getty Images AI will be a factor, as will the state of colleges as we move onward. There’s so much going on in the world of college football! NIL. Transfer portal. Conference expansion/realignment. The likely death of the Pac-12.
