Nebraska Cornhuskers Football - Gimme Red 'Til I'm Dead!
Following the Nebraska Cornhuskers 28-21 victory over UCLA on Big Ten After Dark Saturday night, two Huskers nabbed weekly honors from the conference for their performances in the Rose Bowl in front of a mostly red crowd.

Well, things in Husker Nation just got kind of interesting. I know many Husker fans were concerned how the absence of Nebraska’s team captain and starting quarterback was going to affect the prospects for the season.

UCLA is now 3-6, but anybody who has been paying attention knows that their record does nothing to explain the story of their 2025 season. Their head coach at the start the season, DeShaun Foster, was fired after the Bruins started 0-3 with losses to Utah, UNLV and New Mexico. UCLA also fired their offensive […]

Look, it did not go well the few times CFP talk would start popping up among overexcited fans and folks looking for clicks and snappy headlines. No, that has been dead and buried for weeks now, so no danger of going down that road again. But I’m gonna lay something out here before the bell […]

Nebraska is 7-3, and that should feel great. But if you’re a Husker fan, you know exactly why it doesn’t.

In his first […]

So far, two things are happening – 1) UCLA is proceeding almost exactly as expected and 2) We are getting exactly the performance from T.J. Lateef we require as Emmett Johnson remains in beast mode. I thought we would be able to contain UCLA signal-caller Nico Iamaleava through the air and at the break he […]

Nebraska seemed to pick up right where they left off last game, but instead of Claire Johnson and Britt Prince, it was Jessica Petrie and Britt Prince. That’s the good thing about this team and the depth they have, it can be anyone’s night. You know Prince is going to get her points, but who […]

Nebraska 3 vs Minnesota 0 – 25-15, 25-21, 25-20 Opposing teams cannot key in on one, two or even just three players when they prepare for the Huskers; seven different players earned kills today.

FIRST HALF ANALYSIS: Florida International likes to get out and run, so the pace of this half was actually really good. Plenty of up and down the floor, but Nebraska started off the game a little better. Rienk Mast had himself a half and had 7 points and 3 rebounds in the opening 4 minutes. […]
