| Photo by Darryl Oumi/Getty Images Don’t forget the joke of the week… I’m sure many of you woke up this morning saying something along the lines of “what in the ever-loving hell am I doing?” I’ve had a fun few late nights covering Nebrasketball while they were in Hawai’i and doing some traveling to exchange gifts with family. Throw into the mix that my daughter believes that 5 a.m. is just as good as any time to wake up for the day, and I’m beyond... |
| Photo by Darryl Oumi/Getty Images Beavers be damned… FIRST HALF ANALYSIS: This one started off as a bit of a guard battle. Brice Williams scored 5 of Nebraska’s first 7 points, while Demarco Minor had 6 of the Beavers first 9. Oregon State dominated on the glass early, recording 3 offensive rebounds on the same possession, but didn’t score on the trip. Nebraska took the lead not to long after that after Juwan Gary joined the scoring party, as he and Williams combined for the... |

| Jordan Prather-Imagn Images The holiday cheer continued for the Nebraska Cornhuskers with the addition of Dane Key from Kentucky who followed his position coach Daikiel Shorts to the land of corn. Key is a big-bodied receiver at 6-3 210lbs and some awe-inspiring numbers at Kentucky considering their struggles in the SEC. He had 751 receiving yards off 47 catches this past season which is impressive considering the talent in the SEC. Dana Holgorsen and Dylan Raiola will be licking their lips at the prospect of... |
| Adam Cairns-Imagn Images The 12 team playoff created mismatches that will actually hurt the top seeds. The expansion of the College Football Playoff to twelve teams was a welcome upgrade to the sport. Yes, SEC types still chirp that Alabama didn’t get in, but hey: try beating (checks notes) Vanderbilt (seriously?) or scoring more than three points at Oklahoma. I mean, you are embarrassing the conference more than Tennessee did on Saturday night. As Nate points out, the games were played on home campuses where... |
| Merry Christmas | (c) 2012 Husker Mike The Pinstripe Bowl is fast approaching. Merry Christmas Eve! I hope everyone is ready for our first bowl game in 8 years! Let’s celebrate playing in December. Here are your flakes. Nebraska Nebraska football has its first official Pinstripe Bowl opt-outThis is the first time the Nebraska football team has been in a bowl since opt-outs became a thing.

| Dylan Widger-Imagn Images Very solid games by Juwan Gary and Brice Williams… FIRST HALF ANALYSIS: This one didn’t start off really pretty if you were Nebraska. Hawai’i took an early 12-7 lead as Marcus Greene hit 2 from deep early. Braxton Meah had a couple of easy dunks to lead Nebraska’s early scoring. Scoring droughts would quickly become a huge theme as Nebraska shortly afterwards embarked on a 3+ minute drought, missing 7 straight shots. Hawai’i expanded its lead to 8 as Nebraska started 3-12... |

| Photo by Wesley Hitt/Getty Images Tonight, Beth, our volleyball writer, will join me for the beginning of the show for a post-season post-mortem. Penn State ended the season with the national title, a disappointment to so many of us Nebraska fans. We’ll talk about that. Then there’s football. At 8:30 p.m., Justin Adams, from Voice of College Football Nebraska, will join me to talk about all things football. You’d swear that college football has become the worst sport on the planet given the response to... |
| Photo by Steven Branscombe/Getty Images It was no shock it would look different – it does – and Rhule is not waiting until 2025 to grant Heinrich Haarberg his position switch. Last week, I took a first swing at what the depth chart may look like next season. There is more to come as Head Coach Matt Rhule and Defensive Coordinator John Butler have only begun to tap the transfer portal for replacements. But we do have a chart updated for the Pinstripe Bowl which... |
| Set Number: X81132 TK1 R3 F25 We can debate until we are blue in the face about who should or should not have gotten in to the College Football Playoff this season. I for one, however, spent more time watching college football bowl games this weekend than I have in the past several years. This includes the weekends in which we had the four team playoff. The best part is that the games were played at college stadiums and in front of college crowds. Finally,... |
| Adam Cairns/Columbus Dispatch / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Nebraska had a so-so season with some high points and lowlights which will need to be addressed in the off-season. Matt Rhule has retooled his staff with some really powerful additions. It is now time to shore up the position groups of need, of which there are plenty. What makes this task even tougher is the loss of players who may be depth pieces or developing players who also need replacing. The major gaps in... |
