    Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

    This is a sore topic for him since Garrett recently was forced into an orgy with some of the staff after the Cockeye game.

    Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

    Every year in CFB there is a sense in concern over graduating players and how we’ll replace them. Whenever you are breaking in a new QB and having to replace a QB that was basically your offensive identity, it will feel like a reset. So while it stinks that this past year didn’t go as we hoped...

    Hush up, Dittman. I love being able to blindly potato every post he makes without reading it.

    2025-26 Coaching Carousel

    What I recall about Urban was he wanted a termination clause on it OSU or Notre Dame offered him a job but we weren’t willing to be seen as a side piece by anyone.

    In. This year I’m thankful for this thread and Kong.

    Was 2025 really an improvement over 2024?

    @kenyanfeline your DM is worth sharing here regarding the comparison.

    If they leave Texas out the playoffs we should never play a good OOC game ever again.

    There is something wrong IMO with the fifth place SEC team being given another shot to play for a national championship over an ACC or BigXII runner up. I would be in favor with capping conference participation because if you can’t be in the top 25% of teams in your own conference what justifies...

    What record gets Rhule canned after next season?

    I think this is right. But, if we’re playing out this hypothetical of what it’ll take to fire Rhule (I would given him 5 full years regardless as I hate how rarely we do that) it’ll be 4-8. This will mean that we only beat one of MSU, UMD, and Rutgers. Or we lost to someone in our weak OOC...

    How did Bo manage to get so much right during his tenure here?

    I’d say these are the things you need to evaluate the health of a program on: Culture - Is the team together and fighting for each other. Talent - do we have good players but also do we have the ability to acquire and retain talent Scheme - do we know how to attack our opponent. Alignment - 1)...

    Is 8-4 success? What about 7-5?

    Yeah, I had hope that we’d play better so I was definitely sad about the outcome. But this probable outcome was always a fear.

    Is 8-4 success? What about 7-5?

    Do you think where a line closes is more relevant than where it opens when determining who was supposed to win? In other words, is what the market thinks about teams more relevant than what the book thinks? I’m not going to excuse Minnesota. That game was the only game I was pissed off about. I...

    Is 8-4 success? What about 7-5?

    The over/under was 7.5. Success is relative to each person, but success in the eyes of people handicapping all of CFB would be 8-4, and failure at 7-5. I know us fans hold the team to different standards. This demarcation between success and failure based on record challenges the conversation...

    Week 13 @ Penn State: Game Notes, Depth Chart, etc

    Line down to 7.5. Interestingly, when I looked at it earlier today it was 8.5 with a -300 money line for PSU. After the line dropped a point, the money line went to -320. In other words they’ve gotten a lot of action on the PSU ML but the money thinks we’ll cover.

    November Recruiting Thread

    I think we wanted him. But I don’t think we were carelessly going to match what MSU thought he was worth, nor do I think we could offer him the early playing time they could.

    Husker Volleyball

    I apologize. Over the past 30 years I never get to watch Nebraska sports other than Football do well, and even that has been debatable. I don’t watch much of anything other than football, but I’ve literally never seen us win a single game of baseball, basketball, or volleyball. Not once. I...
