As the 2025 college football season unfolds, the Nebraska Cornhuskers are positioning themselves as a potential playoff spoiler. Fueled by the whirlwind changes brought about by the transfer portal, Nebraska is capitalizing on this era of player movement to build a team that could turn heads and defy expectations. One of the biggest challenges facing the Big Ten this year is the scarcity of experienced quarterbacks. Many teams are fielding new faces under center, which opens up opportunities for a team like Nebraska to step up. This is where Nebraska’s Dylan Raiola comes into play, entering his sophomore year he…

Nebraska’s tradition rich spring game, which attracts one of the largest crowds in college football, will be discontinued. Head coach Matt Rhule has expressed concerns about players being stolen away by teams who didn’t have the ability to win them over in recruiting to begin with. Rhule stated that the current transfer portal landscape resembles an unregulated marketplace. And that “Tampering is rampant,” at a recent press conference. “Inviting the world to watch our spring game just increases the risk of losing our best players to other programs.” Nebraska’s spring game ritualistically draws over 60,000 fans to memorial stadium and…

In an emotional and well deserved tribute, Greg Sharpe, the beloved “Voice of the Huskers,” received a special honor when the Nebraska athletic department announced that the radio booth at Memorial Stadium would be named after him. Sharpe’s reaction was priceless: “Holy crap!” he exclaimed upon seeing his name outside the booth. Diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in April, Sharpe has been a resilient figure, continuing to bring the excitement of Nebraska football and baseball to fans as the play-by-play announcer. For many of us, listening to Greg Sharpe’s voice on the radio is deeply ingrained in our memories, a constant…

Excitement is brewing in Lincoln, Nebraska, as the possibility of the Savannah Bananas playing at Memorial Stadium has fans buzzing. This intriguing idea took root when former Husker baseball team captain and pitcher Kyle Perry, who recently joined the Savannah Bananas, tweeted to the Cornhuskers about hosting a game at the iconic venue. Initially seen as just a fun suggestion, the notion gained serious momentum when Cornhuskers Athletic Director Troy Dannen tweeted on Wednesday, hinting that what seemed like a pipe dream could actually become reality. Dannen had suggested before the use of memorial stadium for events other than football,…

Matt Rule and the Nebraska Cornhuskers are not waiting around to win. After intermediate success in 2024, and making a bowl game for the first time in nearly a decade Coach Rhule is out to win. A much more aggressive approach in the transfer portal is being taken by Rhule and company this year. Ranked fifth in the Big Ten and 17th nationally by 247 Sports, Nebraska’s transfer class boasts many four star recruits including athletes that were the best in their position at their previous school. With 15 committed transfers, Nebraska is filling all gaps from talent leaving and…

As Nebraska football headed into the offseason, addressing the offensive line’s vulnerabilities became a pressing concern. With the departure of longtime starter Bryce Benhart, the Huskers faced the prospect of entering the upcoming season with significant gaps in their lineup. Without securing crucial transfers to reinforce the offensive line, Nebraska would struggle to protect the quarterback and open up running lanes, thereby limiting the team’s overall effectiveness. Fortunately, the commitment of Elijah Pritchett, a former Alabama offensive tackle, marks an important first step in stabilizing and strengthening this critical position group. Pritchett, a 6’6 327 pound offensive tackle, officially committed…

As the Huskers left the field in New York city, they left looking fairly dominant against a Boston College team that gave SMU a run for their money late in the season. The standout moment of the Pinstripe Bowl was foreshadowing of the future to come. Raiola’s run and slide on the game’s final drive, drawing a late hit from a Boston College defensive back, gave the Huskers the fuel they needed to close out the game and get the win. As Raiola popped up and got into the face of the would-be defender, you could almost feel the state…

The Huskers are bowling for the first time since 2016 and in their first appearance in almost a decade they will take on Boston College at Yankee Stadium this Saturday at 11am. The Boston College Eagles got off to a great start this year, starting off 4-1 and their only loss came to a current Top 25 ranked Missouri by 6 points. After the Missouri loss BC faltered dropping three of their next five games before a quarterback change and a win over Syracuse (Ranked 21) and a close loss to SMU who would later find their way into the…

Where do the Huskers land realistically in the transfer portal? Nebraska has roughly 10 million dollars that is spent on NIL every year. With 105 athletes on the roster moving forward this is what it would look like to give you an idea of why Nebraska is falling behind. If the top 10 percent of athletes which is about 11 athletes receive 80 percent of the NIL funds we are looking at about $761,900 per athlete. When you take into account that a top tier offensive lineman in the portal or a 5 star out of high school is going…

The first week of December has ushered in significant changes for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and not all of the changes boasted hope. Over ten players, including key starters like linebacker Mikai Gbayor and defensive lineman Jimari Butler, have declared their intent to transfer. While it’s rare for players to return after entering the transfer portal, Butler’s return two years ago under head coach Matt Rhule is a noteworthy exception. Even more uncommon was running back Emmett Johnson’s decision to stay with Nebraska, announced just three days after he declared his intent to transfer. The transfer portal officially opened on Monday,…
