| 5/12/26 |  Nebraska football is halfway through the offseason: Where's the panic meter? | The official midpoint of the college football offseason arrived a few days ago. Nebraska didn’t celebrate it. Excitement is not rising from the walls of Huskers’ football complex. It does not mean that trouble is afoot. But in comparison to recent offseasons, reason for concern exists. As a result, we’re re-introducing the DEFCON meter to gauge the state of the Huskers. Also, behold the upcoming Nebraska volleyball rock-star tour. Nebraska softball tickets are selling for big bucks as a regional heads to Lincoln. We discuss the football Friday night at Illinois and preview Nebraska baseball at Creighton on Tuesday night. How many fans pack into Charles Schwab Field Omaha? To close, Mitch shares his story behind the story on Budge Porter, the Nebraska football player who was paralyzed 50 years ago in a spring practice. | — | ||||||
| 5/12/26 |  DENIED! Nebraska players lose their first case against the CSC. What’s next? | A ruling arrived Monday in the arbitration case that pitted 18 Nebraska football players against the College Sports Commission. Nebraska lost — and it must now find a new path, along with its multimedia right partner, to pay millions of dollars over the revenue-sharing cap. Connor and Mitch dive into the ramifications of this situation. What’s next for Nebraska in its bid to keep up in the fast lane of college athletics? Join us. | — | ||||||
| 5/11/26 |  Postseason fever: Are Nebraska baseball and softball positioned for deep tourney runs? | We’ve got a special Sunday night episode, featuring the Nebraska baseball and softball teams. Will Bolt’s team swept Iowa in front of 22,815 fans over the weekend. It took some late-inning drama on Saturday and Sunday, but the Huskers are 37-14 and back in decent shape to make a run at hosting a regional with four regular-season games left. We update that chase and the Huskers’ pitching situation after the bullpen faltered at times against the Hawkeyes. Rhonda Revelle’s squad beat UCLA after a tense moment in the third inning on Saturday to win the Big Ten softball tournament. The Huskers are 46-6 and will host a regional in Lincoln, starting Friday. If they advance and the bracket holds, a fun, made-for-TV matchup awaits in the super regional round next week. Join us for details. | — | ||||||
| 5/8/26 |  Is Nebraska football in danger of losing its top recruits? | The Friday mailbag is open. Topics came hot and heavy this week. For those listeners and viewers whose questions went unanswered, you’ll hear from us next week — and before Friday, so stay tuned. We start with Nebraska recruiting. What’s the end game for Nebraska as Trae Taylor and Tory Pittman III hear from new suitors? We revisit the 8 vs. 6 conversation. Is the hot seat in Lincoln a real thing? Why is the NCAA basketball tournament expanding? Does the best news for Fred Hoiberg in this offseason involve an assistant coach? And finally, why would Nebraska baseball even want to host a regional? We’ll tell you. | — | ||||||
| 5/7/26 | BIG 10 SQUAD: The College Football Playoff may EXPAND TO 24 TEAMS | How this impacts Nebraska | Big Ten football faces seismic changes as coaches push for a 24-team College Football Playoff and the elimination of conference championship games. Is the legendary exclusivity of college football evaporating? The Big 10 Squad debates whether expanding the playoff waters down the sport, how job security and coaching standards might shift, and if a January 25th national championship is simply too much. The crew breaks down Maryland Terrapins’ shocking 4.5 win total: can Mike Locksley’s squad exceed expectations, or is another disappointing season inevitable? Key talking points include playoff expansion, scheduling chaos, and the shifting stakes for Big Ten coaches and teams like Washington and Ohio State. With heated insights on tradition, competitive balance, and the future of college football, this episode takes on the sport’s most controversial debates. | — | ||||||
| 5/7/26 |  Survey says? Misery and self loathing from Nebraska football fans | What is it about this week? We got to the first few days of May and the negativity meter spiked around Nebraska football. Our friend Scott Dochterman of The Athletic surveyed hundreds of college football fans about the state of the Big Ten — and specifically, the state of every program in the Big Ten. Nebraska fans answered about as you’d expect four months into what’s been a dreary offseason. On the flip side, an ESPN crew of writers ranked the offseasons of every team in the Power 4. And the Huskers finished in the top half of the league. Eighth, to be exact, ahead of three opponents that play Nebraska in potential swing games this fall. Go ahead and feel good about that. Also, the American Football Coaches Association submitted ideas on how to improve the sport. It’s thin on substance. We discuss on this Thursday. | — | ||||||
| 5/6/26 |  Eight wins or six for Nebraska football in 2026? It’s not as simple as it sounds | Do you care how it looks? There’s the question of this Wednesday episode for Nebraska football fans. What if you were presented two options about the upcoming season. One option includes six wins and a breakthrough victory. The other involves eight wins, but nothing much that moves the meter. We debate the merits of both scenarios and run through schedule talk for Matt Rhule’s fourth team. The Huskers added a 2026 football signee this week. Maurice Purify II joined the class. There’s significance to this late addition. Nebraska basketball locked up Nate Loesner and Fred Hoiberg’s other assistant coaches. And Nebraska volleyball continues to find intriguing ways to compete. The latest involves a trip in August to Jerry World with $1 million at stake. | — | ||||||

| 4/21/26 |  Nebraska football coach Matt Rhule speaks up on the 2026 schedule, pressure to win and last year | You never know what you might get on a Tuesday in April. On this day, Nebraska football coach Matt Rhule stopped by to visit with Damon Benning and Ravi Lulla of Hurrdat Sports. We were listening. And we’ve got thoughts on Rhule’s comments about the Minnesota game last year, the 2026 schedule, the success of various sports at Nebraska and the pressure to win. Also, Ugnius Jarusevicius is leaving the Nebraska basketball program. The arbitration hearing between the College Sports Commission and 18 Nebraska football players might not matter. And the Huskers’ former coach, Scott Frost, is again not saying things about his alma mater. Join us. | — | ||||||
| 4/21/26 |  Why not NIL? Burning questions on the Nebraska football Big Red Rebuild | It’s a Tuesday in late April and Nebraska baseball and softball have taken over the spotlight. The softball team rose to No. 1 in one of the national polls. That’s a first. Will Bolt’s baseball team returned to the top 20 as it heads south for a grudge match against Big 12 frontrunner Kansas. The last time the Huskers and Jayhawks met, Bolt got ejected. Tempers flared. What will happen as they tangle at Hoglund Ballpark? We’re also talking on this Tuesday about lingering questions after Nebraska unveiled its big plans for Memorial Stadium. Why not spend it on NIL? Why so much deferred maintenance? We take a look at what you’re talking about. Join us. | — | ||||||
| 4/20/26 |  Nebraska football: What does $600 million get you these days? | Nebraska football is in the news. The university is set to approve $600 million in upgrades to Memorial Stadium. That’s a big project. Nebraska basketball is in the news. Fred Hoiberg added three more players from the portal, bringing the haul in this transfer cycle to four. But we’re starting this episode with Nebraska baseball, which broke out the brooms against USC over the weekend at Haymarket Park. Are the Huskers a CWS-caliber team? Connor and Mitch discuss, then we get into all of the football and hoops conversation. Also, a shout out to the Huskers’ latest national champion. And Nebraska softball, at least for now, cannot be stopped. Appreciate them while time remains. Join us for a full Monday podcast. | — | ||||||
| 4/17/26 |  Nebraska football mailbag: Is it wrong to learn on the job as a Big Ten assistant coach? | The Friday Nebraska football mailbag episode is here. We’re dabbling in baseball, basketball and volleyball, with a heavy dose of football today. It starts with a question that many have wondered but few have asked: Do coaches today even know what they’re doing? A better question perhaps: Do any of us know what we’re doing? Connor and Mitch get philosophical. Also, what’s the national perception of the Huskers in this offseason? If Iowa football and Nebraska football met in the NCAA basketball tournament — huh? — how would that game end? Does this Nebraska baseball pitching staff match up against groups that have pitched the Huskers deep into the NCAA postseason? And why aren’t more people talking about the five-for-five proposal, when it could seemingly make a big impact on today’s rosters? Join us for a fun finish to your week. | — | ||||||
| 4/16/26 | BIG 10 SQUAD: The Big 10's Latest SCANDAL | How this impacts Nebraska | NCAA sanctions shake up Iowa Hawkeyes football as eight wins are vacated for tampering with quarterback Cade McNamara—was it worth the fallout? The Locked On Big Ten Squad debates whether the NCAA's focus is misplaced, questioning the penalty’s impact, and suggesting the NCAA targets smaller programs while avoiding powerhouses. Lively banter covers Kirk Ferentz’s legacy, Iowa’s ongoing quarterback development woes, and frustrations with inconsistent NCAA enforcement. Wisconsin Badgers face chaos after the sudden departure of athletic director Chris McIntosh, leaving major leadership gaps ahead of the new season. The Big 10 Squad weighs in on Wisconsin’s struggles to adapt in the NIL era and whether Luke Fickell’s job is on the line. The episode also spotlights shifting approaches to spring games, with limited action from stars like Michigan’s Bryce Underwood and Penn State scrapping their scrimmage entirely. | — | ||||||
| 4/16/26 |  Nebraska football: It’s finally time for the Memorial Stadium conversation | Nearly three years after the subject was introduced by Nebraska’s former athletic director, the time is near for the current boss to send a proposal on Memorial Stadium renovation to the university leaders. Could it happen next week? We’re talking about big dollars. Why the wait? Will the optics ever feel right? And what’s next for Nebraska athletics as it moves closer to a major overhaul of its football venue? USC is set to invade Haymarket Park this weekend. The Trojans are bringing pitchers. Lots of good pitchers. Could it be reminiscent of the type of series that Will Bolt experienced on an annual basis during his time as a player at Nebraska? There’s a new rule about overseas travel for basketball teams. Nebraska volleyball coach Dani Busboom Kelly dropped big scheduling news. And we have an offer for Sam Hoiberg. Join us. | — | ||||||
| 4/15/26 |  Rising intensity for Nebraska baseball amidst crucial midseason stretch | Nebraska and Creighton turned up the tension Tuesday night for a clash at Haymarket Park. And just as in their previous meeting on the baseball diamond this season, the Huskers emerged with a one-run victory, 5-4, behind clutch bullpen work and early offense. With another week remaining in this high-leverage stretch of games, Nebraska is refining the role of former Friday night starter Ty Horn. He performed well against the Bluejays in his new job. Iowa football is vacating wins. It’s all very dumb. But we take a look at the situation in Iowa City. And Nebraska basketball continues to receive word from key pieces of its 2025-26 team that they’re back for next season. As the portal turns, we assess Fred Hoiberg’s in-progress roster. Join us for a Wednesday podcast. | — | ||||||
| 4/14/26 |  Pryce is BACK: Is Sandfort already a Nebraska basketball icon? | We had an inkling, but Pryce Sandfort made it official on Monday. He’ll return for an encore after his All-Big Ten and Sweet 16 debut year with the Nebraska basketball team. Fred Hoiberg says that the Huskers have unfinished business. What’s next for the Huskers’ premier sharpshooter? Nebraska football lost a South Dakota high school prospect to Penn State. How much of a concern is Matt Campbell’s pillaging of the Huskers’ backyard? Creighton visits Nebraska baseball on Tuesday. Did you see the first home run that Ava Kuszak hit on Sunday at Wisconsin? One announcer did not. And we’re talking about Ariana Akey, the first recruit in the history of the Nebraska women’s flag football program. Join us. | — | ||||||
