HUSKERS FOOTBALL Recap – Over & Done By Halftime: NEBRASKA 56 Bowling Green 7
They did play the entire game, and, if we’re honest, it appeared as if someone may have forgotten to alert the team the 3rd quarter had started. But that’s a quibble. I thought about the the last time I’d seen someone treated as badly as Bowling Green was in the first half, and the only […]
Nebraska 56, Bowling Green 7: Is There Anything To Complain About?
Nebraska beat Bowling Green 56-7 on Saturday night in Lincoln, and it was 35-0 at halftime, and it seems like we need to complain about something? Bowling Green held the ball for most of the third quarter. Bowling Green scored a touchdown. The world was apparently ending. Two games into the season, here is what […]
HUSKERS Halftime Recap – Throw in the Damn Towel!: NEBRASKA 35 Bowling Green 0
It’s tempting to do the game write-up now, then just bite the cork of wonderfully distilled bottle of Sailor Jerry fresh from Blackbeard’s personal below decks stash. If you watched the first half, you know what I’m talking about. The Huskers have loaded up a 35-0 lead and have needed no wild rumpus to do […]
Nebraska vs Bowling Green – Game Thread
In the ongoing process of which conference is better, the Big or the SEC, after today’s games, you decide that the Big Ten sucks. Michigan beat Oklahoma something I wouldn’t have expected. Oklahoma State knocked off number six, Oregon, and became the first team with a 10-game losing streak to beat a team in the […]
Nebraska Pre-Game Vibes: Bowling Green
WHY LSU 51 Clemson 10 Made Me Happy Yes, I know. Lane Kiffen is trying to destroy the game, the rat bastard. But is he really? The quick recap – Lane wants to bring back a couple players who got cut by NFL teams to the LSU roster. They technically have a year of college […]
#1 Nebraska Comes Back After a First Set Loss to Defeat Georgia Tech in Four
After a tight match last night against Baylor, the Huskers took the floor this afternoon against a good Georgia Tech team. This would be another test for the Huskers early on this season. Georgia Tech took the first set and made the Husker work for this win. After letting the Yellow Jackets get out to […]
Saturday Early College Football Games – What To Watch and Game Threads
Early Watch Afternoon Watch Evening Watch
#1 Huskers Pass Their Biggest Test of the Early Season With a Sweep of Baylor
In their second home match of the year, the #1 Huskers took on the #20 Baylor Bears. It was a match of long rallies, great defense, and lots of service pressure. While we saw the Huskers bend a bit, they did not break and pulled off the sweep. Nebraska had gold warm up shirts to […]
NEBRASKA (1-0) vs. Bowling Green (0-1) – The Ground Game Could Launch Hard: HOW TO WATCH/LISTEN
Bowling Green comes to town Saturday night and their performance in Week 1 did little to instill dread in Husker fans who have grown used to disappointing things in the last decade or more. The Falcons dropped their opener last weekend to FCS school Tarleton State 20-13, which is not as bad as it sounds. […]
Friday Night College Football Game Thread (9/11/26)
Welcome back to another fun filled Friday night of college football! Did everyone have fun watching the volleyball team annihilate New Mexico last night? Yeah, that was fun.

Nebraska’s Huge Recruiting Weekend Has One Eye Firmly on the Future

Nebraska will have prospects on […]

Five Games Which Mattered Last Weekend: Bending Time & Space In Ann Arbor
So what are the qualifications of a game that matters? Matters to who? Games that have national title implications? One look at this initial list tells one that just isn’t so. I could spend paragraphs explaining what does and doesn’t meet the definition of “mattering” (No, really – I could. Ask my friends.), but I’ll […]
Friday Flakes: Who is the Best “Football Player” on Nebraska’s Roster?
This season I am doing a weekly power ranking of Nebraska’s football players. That power ranking list is not the best football players on a team but a ranking of a weekly “what have you done for me lately” or “how important are you?” type of rationale. While writing my most recent power ranking I […]

“Yeah, That’s Kinda Fun, Isn’t It?”: Jahsear & Anthony Pave the Huskers Highway
“Yeah, that’s kinda fun, isn’t it?” Offensive Coordinator Dana Holgorsen after the Huskers added a couple of defensive linemen for an explosive 4th & 1 on Saturday. As the Huskers lined up for a 4th & 1 on the Ohio 37 in the middle of the 3rd quarter, the guy next to me checking out […]

Week 1 Cobs: Corruption, Power Outage and a Beautiful Punt
College football is here, which means the cob nominations are back! Let’s sail through a new season of cob nominations! Big Ten Refs If only Michigan had one more second…wait what?! Florida State The power outage at the stadium delaying the game for one hour and 45 minutes is just flat out embarrassing. We have […]
Five Reasons Nebraska Will Win: Bowling Green
WOOOHOOO! The Huskers started off the season with a win! Who could’ve predicted that? Oh that’s right, I did! I’m sure a few of you were doubting all you’ve ever known in your life that first half, weren’t you? Well I wasn’t. We are on to a new week and a new opponent, but the […]
Thursday Flakes: Volleyball Returns, NFL and More
I am another step closer to being in sports heaven, as the NFL has formally kicked off. It reminds me that the weather is turning…hopefully…and I can slowly prepare myself for the burning smell of dust once I turn the heater on for the first time. I realize that’s still a few solid weeks away, […]

After the much anticipated match at Wrigley Field, the Huskers are finally playing their first matches of the season in Lincoln this weekend.

HUSKERS HAPPY HOUR: 49-21 Is a Good Start With Plenty To Work On
Season 3 of the Huskers Happy Hour kicked off and we had a blazing hot opener vs. the Ohio Bobcats to talk about, so we did. We went through the drive chart, the stats – team and individual – and looked ahead to the next opponent, Bowling Green, who dropped their opener to FCS squad […]

Nebraska heads into Week 2 with plenty of confidence after a 49-21 victory over Ohio, and the oddsmakers clearly expect the Huskers to keep the good times rolling. Bowling Green comes to Lincoln on Saturday night at 0-1 after falling 20-13 to Tarleton State in Week 1. According to FanDuel, Nebraska is currently a 28.5-point […]
Nebraska Football: Mac Markway Announces He Is Stepping Away from Football
In 2024, Nebraska received a transfer from a former four-star recruit who started one game for LSU as a true freshman. That was Mac Markway and he was going to be the next great tight end for Nebraska. Unfortunately, Markway suffered a knee injury in September of 2024 while at Nebraska. He ended up redshirting […]
A 24-Team Playoff, a Phantom Second, and the SEC Ready to Expel LSU
Three things crossed my desk in one day, and by the end of it I realized they were all the same story. The College Football Playoff opened negotiations on a 24-team playoff. The MAC formally appealed to have Michigan’s win over Western Michigan erased. And the SEC scheduled a Thursday vote on whether to throw […]
