Game Thread: Rutgers – An Undefeated Team and an Undefeated Dream

Photo by Ryan Hunt/Getty Images Nate M. Quick Thoughts: An undefeated dream? I just wanted to put that in the title though Nebraska has never lost to Rutgers in the history of the programs. Nebraska is favored by way more than they should be. I think Rutgers is going to make Nebraska look like a bad football team and it’s going to come down to special teams in the end and the Huskers are going to fail. Nate M Prediction: Rutgers 21 – Nebraska 18...

HUSKERS vs Rutgers: PRE-GAME VIBES

Remember when Anthony Grant slept that Scar;et Knight? | Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Welcome to the October heat wave lasting exactly one afternoon. Welcome to Lincoln pre-game where temps feel like they’re going up about five degrees every 15 minutes. The winds are blowing about 20 mph out the south and it’s already been sarcastically suggested that might be strong enough to straighten out our field goal attempts. Let’s get right to it and see who we are admitting is injured: No surprises here as Alvano’s...

NEBRASKA (4-1) vs RUTGERS (4-0) – The Blackshirts Mid-Term Is Here: HOW TO WATCH

The Anthony Grant KO run is my defining memory from the last meeting. | Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images The Huskers next 3 opponents are currently 13-0. And the Rutgers test will let the defense know what they’ve fixed since Illinois. You don’t want to miss this. I don’t bring up the Illinois game again to continue harping, I swear. But if you’re looking for a benchmark in improvement, there’s simply not a better test to be found than the Rutgers game tomorrow in which the Huskers...

Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: Rutgers

Stephen Bruce The Huskers will lead the Scarlet Knights to their first loss of the season. What a ride that last game was. I love the way that the Huskers responded in the second half. I am excited to see them carry that momentum into the game this week. It’s going to be a hot one and the Huskers are going to ride that heat to win. #1 THE BIG PLAYS Rutgers has a pretty stout defense, their red zone defense is 1st in the...

Friday Flakes: Nebraska Football Has Never Lost to Rutgers and that Might Change on Saturday

Photo by Ryan Hunt/Getty Images This Rutgers team coming into Lincoln tomorrow is not your grandfather’s Rutgers. Your grandfather’s Rutgers team would not have beaten Virginia Tech AT Virginia Tech and likely does not beat Washington. That Virginia Tech team went into 8th ranked Miami last Saturday and had the game won if the officials didn’t screw it up. Greg Schiano has this team rolling and they should be ranked though they have only played four games. I am actually picking Nebraska to lose this...

Five Heart: NEBRASKA/RUTGERS PREVIEW & WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON WITH SPECIAL TEAMS ANYWAY?

Photo by Brian Spurlock/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images After a huge win at Purdue last week 28-10, Nebraska comes home to play their last game before their BYE WEEK against Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Homecoming probably conjures memories of a chilly fall breeze through the trees with freshly fallen leaves and the smell of football wafting through the air. Mother Nature must not have received the memo of the Huskers playing their Homecoming Game this Saturday because the temps are supposed to be in the 90’s....

Nebraska Volleyball Sweeps Illinois for Their 10th Win in a Row

Photo by David Buono/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images Nebraska sweeps Illinois in their first of 2 meetings this season Nebraska got their 3rd B1G conference win of the season tonight and continued to roll. I was kind of expecting 4 sets tonight, but a sweep is even better to see especially against a strong Illinois team who is still looking for their first conference win of the season. John Cook shook up the lineup tonight against Illinois and it was actually kind of nice to...

THE 24 HOUR RULE: Huskers Win By Doing the Little Things

Job one was contain Mockobee and Love. Job one completed. | Marc Lebryk-Imagn Images With the “7-0 against Ohio St.” silliness in the rearview, the Huskers’ faced a defining moment game with Purdue. Following the Illinois game in which the defense – and for that matter, the offensive line in overtime – got out-physicalled in the crunch, the Huskers played a reeling Purdue team which has gone 5-11 since Ryan Walters replaced Jeff Brohm as head coach. A win was expected, but how they won...

Nebraska Volleyball Preview: Huskers Visit Illinois Thursday Night

Photo by Jamie Schwaberow/NCAA Photos via Getty Images Husker volleyball is back in action Thursday night after a 2-0 start to B1G play Nebraska looks to extend their 9-game win streak to 10 when they travel to Illinois on Thursday night to play the Fighting Illini. It will be another emotional night, but this time for both teams. Sophomore Setter Bergen Reilly has a sister that plays for Illinois. Raegen Reilly played at North Dakota State her freshman year before transferring to South Dakota State...

In this era of rebuilding Nebraska needs to embrace every victory big and small

Marc Lebryk-Imagn Images Saturday’s victory against the lowly Purdue Boilermakers 28-10 was far from a thing of beauty but getting the job done is something this program needs to embrace to get to the next level. The special teams kicking woes have long been documented but unless the staff find a student kicking a ball at the Rec that can make field goals this is what it will look like all season long. This places a heavier burden on the shoulders of Freshman phenom Dylan...
