Nebraska Cornhuskers Football - Gimme Red 'Til I'm Dead!
“You know those little monkeys they put on the back of Border Collies with the rodeos? Border Collie runs all over the place. Monkey’s just trying to hang on. No control over where it’s going. No way to get off of without fucking dying. Crowd laughing at him as he whips by.” “That’s you. You’re […]

“You look at our team this year and, both offensively and defensively, the red zone really hurt us in terms of what we’d like to get done. And so the ability to add different run game, especially quarterback run counter, is a great answer for that.” – Head Coach Matt Rhule Very early in Friday’s […]

At the beginning of the season, I laid out a preview of my thoughts for the year. You can find them here. Now that we are almost entirely out of non-conference play, I figured I would revisit some of the things that have happened so far. It didn’t take long for the Huskers to begin […]

The 2025 Nebraska Huskers football season ended not with a bang, but with the uncomfortable silence that follows back-to-back blowout losses. A 7-5 record—bookended by embarrassing defeats to Penn State and Iowa—left fans questioning everything from Matt Rhule’s coaching hires to the program’s trajectory in the Big Ten. Yet as winter settles over the Midwest […]

Both Husker basketball teams won on Sunday to move to 12-0. Both teams fell behind early and looked like they had long layoffs as they knocked off early rust. Berke Buyuktuncel notched the second triple-double for Nebrasketball this season and only the fourth such performance in the program’s history. Both teams have been fun to […]

A game like this was always a concern for this team. Boy can they score a lot of points but with their reliance on the three point shot there will be games like tonight where they will struggle. Luckily, they were playing North Dakota tonight and not Michigan State who they will see in the […]

As of this writing, it appears that Nebraska is favored by 29.5-30.5 points in the matchup against North Dakota. So as we set our expectations, we should probably get ready to lower them for the game tonight. Looking over their schedule it looks like 30.5 points might be enough in this game but there is […]

Nebraska is finding ways to win even when it’s ugly, even when their star player goes 1-6 in the first half, which might not have been the case a few years ago. This team constantly has people who pick it up when they need it most and my favorite thing about them is you never […]

Your games today are below. I thought I’d put up a fun thread so we could discuss college football today if we like. One thing I’d like to point out today is that the Division II final features Harding and Ferris State at 3 p.m. on ESPN2. So Harding might be fun to watch if […]

Okay, it’s Saturday morning and one game is in the books, but all of these polls closed Friday afternoon. But if you gamble and believe the majority pick correctly, then these are the polls for you. The bad news? They’re already 0-for-1 after picking Oklahoma to win outright and thereby cover. The games on the […]

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Nebraska’s intended transfer portal departures will be discussed. Dylan Raiola is the latest Husker to likely attach a “former” ahead of that. Speaking of former Huskers, Emmett Johnson was named an All-American, rightfully so, if you ask me. He is Nebraska’s first All-American since Lavonte David, and that […]

Nebraska has been dealt a gut punch with the departure of two-year starter and former five-star quarterback Dylan Raiola to the transfer portal. Handed the keys to the program as the face of Nebraska’s offensive reboot, Raiola showed flashes of exactly why he was so highly regarded. He threw for just over 2,000 yards with […]

Usually, I try to find some inspiration in my life that helps me write this little preamble. Sometimes it might be funny, other times it’s cute, and in today’s case…well I have nothing. I have to admit, I haven’t felt well since the twins came home at the beginning of the month. The hamster that […]
