Thursday Flakes: Basketball picked 12th, Playoff Baseball, and More

Petre Thomas-Imagn Images Please keep underestimating the Huskers… Last I understood how life worked, usually when the calendar turns to October, baseball postseason starts, football is in full swing, and basketball and hockey are about to begin. The weather turns decent, the leaves change color and fall off trees, and people are contemplating turning their heat on at night. SO WHY IN THE HELL IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE 95 ON SATURDAY?!!!! When did Lincoln end up in Arizona for crying out loud? Upper 80s-mid...

Nebraska Men’s Basketball picked to finish 12th this season

Petre Thomas-Imagn Images It should be higher in my opinion The Nebraska Men’s Basketball team was picked to finish 12th this season by the Big Ten media. In my opinion, this should be more towards the 6 or 7 range. Sleep on Nebrasketball just like last year and teams could pay the price. Here’s how the media projected this season’s rankings: 1. Purdue 2. Indiana 3. UCLA 4. Illinois 5. Michigan State 6. Oregon 7. Rutgers 8. Ohio State 9. Michigan 10. Maryland 11. Iowa...

Nebraska Football: A Win is a Win

Marc Lebryk-Imagn Images It wasn’t pretty, but effective It was ugly, horrible to look at, frightening to children, vomit inducing, and shouldn’t be for public viewing. But enough about me when I look in the mirror, what about that first half between Nebraska and Purdue? Between the absolute gong show that was the officiating, multiple drive stalling penalties (actual ones), the unseemly snapping and field goal attempts, the wretched idea of scoring points, and Brian Buschini being the leading tackler for Nebraska, that was…something. I...

HUSKERS HAPPY HOUR: WE’RE FAVORED THIS WEEKEND??

That’s just one of the questions facing us on tonight’s show after a Purdue game which was basically a solid 15 minutes and a sigh of relief. Join us at 8PM CST tonight for a topic-filled evening after a Purdue game which was goofy, maddening and for 15 minutes, pretty perfect. Yes, this is posting very late, but I won the battle of technology and with a raccoon. This is rushed, so here’s the link. As always, be sure and comment and we’ll solve all...

Week 5 Cobs: Tears, Pain and Heartbreak

Holy huge mistake WA blocked the...

Corn Flakes: The Return of Ally B. and Rodriguez Defensive Player of the Week

Scott Bruhn Also, changes in Big Ten onside kick protocol. Did you watch Nebraska volleyball play USC on Sunday night? The Huskers had another sweep of a ranked team, but that wasn’t the best part. I felt like the best part was that Ally Batenhorst was back in Lincoln after transferring to USC. She had the best welcome back from the fans and you can see that the love from the team is still there. Even better, she had an awesome game and I remembered...

Nebraska Beats Purdue, But Can They Defeat An Undefeated Rutgers? – Tonight at 8 PM

Photo by Ryan Hunt/Getty Images Nebraska defeated Purdue 28-10 Saturday, and boy howdy, is there a lot of complaining about a team that is 4-1 so far on the season. So much negativity. Granted, it was an ass ugly first half of football, but in the end Nebraska ended up soundly beating Purdue. The Blackshirt defense held them to only 50 yards rushing, 174 yards passing, and 10 points. That’s a pretty decent outing. We will review Purdue, taking your questions and comments, BUT more...

Big Ten Football’s Proper Power Rankings: After Week Five

Photo by Aaron J. Thornton/Getty Images Previous Weeks:Week Zero. Week One. Week Two. Week Three.Week Four. 1 – Ohio State Previous: Won 38-7 against Michigan State. Movement: Hold. Upcoming: Iowa at Home. Momentary Musing: This week will be the first game that resembles a test and Ohio State could very well blow them out but Iowa could definitely make this a game. Ohio State’s non-conference schedule was a joke. Akron, Western Michigan and Marshall and then they played Michigan State. Fans have to be bored....

Corn Flakes: Ugly Wins Are Still Wins (but Volleyball Continues to Win Pretty)

Marc Lebryk-Imagn Images Plus, a six-year old poop scooping entrepreneur Happy Monday! I imagine most of you were like me on Saturday. I was pretty sure the Matt Rhule Year Two Improvement trend had met its match in the Husker Curse. Then, the second half happened. The coaching staff challenged the team to play basic football. The team answered the challenge. Or, the coaching staff gave up and said “to hell with it. Just run the damn ball if they aren’t going to do what...
