The last time Nebraska was 3-1 over a 4 game stretch was 20-21

20 Rutgers W
21 Illinois L
21 Fordham W
21 Buffalo W

The last time it happened in a season was at the start of 2019.

South Alabama W
Colorado L
Northern Illinois W
Illinois W

It’s quite obvious that when the program needs a boost we fuck the state of Illinois. Northwestern has no idea of what’s in store for them.

When is the last time we were 4-1?

When is the last time we were 4-1?

Back end of 2018.

Minnesota W
Bethune Cookman W
Ohio State L
Illinois W
Michigan State W

Outside of these three “hot” streaks, Frost was 6-28.

The sobering stat is that Riley’s 7-0 start in 2016 was the best in-season stretch since 2001 when they won the first 10 games.

I’ve learned two things over the last 5+ years of watching Husker football:

1) Never ASSUME a victory based on the opponent.
2) Never DENIGRATE a victory no matter how ugly it was.

I remember back in 2021 after Nebraska blew out Northwestern. I was listening to a podcast of Sip's 93.7 morning show and they were discussing how the schedule just works out for Nebraska to finally "breakthrough" if they beat Michigan. I was flabbergasted.

I'm seeing some similar stuff today.

NW is a dumpster fire, but they will also be coming off a bye. Just find a way to let your dumpster fire burn less.

Hoping we can make that 6-1 in last 7 and just get bowl eligible ASAP, then play spoiler with the end of our schedule and steal a couple more.

Exactly my thoughts. I feel good for the players that they are experiencing success even if it is ugly at times.

Mickey and Busch started changing the culture towards the end of last season and Rhule and staff are putting players in the right positions. We’ve had 3rd and 4th string guys step up already due to injuries this year. Shows that development is happening at all levels.

I’m happy! Yes - we should have won the 1st two games but I think they’re learning from their mistakes.

And for those that have been questioning McGuire, you certainly can't question how his receivers have been blocking, even the freshmen.
