I know I posted earlier that I would not be going to the bowl game. But my daughter who lives in New Jersey (huge Huskers fan) surprised me with 4 tickets to the game as a Christmas gift. Just reserved my hotel (Highbridge Hotel) which is just a 10 minute walk away from Yankee Stadium.

Hopefully I will see some of you there! GBR!

Already delivered his kid and now a 5* redshirt freshman at Mizzery who played for him is in the portal. This guy may already need a promotion if he delivers both kids.

The new So Miss coach is rumored to be bringing most of his good Marshall team with him to So Miss much like Indiana did this year. What a crazy world.

Can they play? Pasko?

Entry..🤣

Epitome of a blind hog finding an acorn

Foley single handily lost a couple games this year at minimum. He should have been the first coach walked.
Rhule struck out in his initial hires but still has Satterfield and Foley employed? I want to trust in Rhule but he’s showing some significant red flags that we’ve all seen with past coaches.

Looking to potentially remodel a kitchen and install new flooring. Does anyone have some good recommendations? The guy I have used is basically booked for two years….

Additional info—. I live in South Lincoln.
TIA

Nebraska offers Miami (OH) cornerback Raion Strider, who has three seasons of eligibility left, including a redshirt. Strider's been popular today, reporting offers from the likes of Auburn, Utah, Louisville and more. Well over a dozen offers since entering officially today

6-foot defensive back with a 6-foot-8 wingspan. Was first-team all-MAC this fall with 53 tackles, 2 INTs and an NCAA-leading 18 PBUs

My college buddy has a brother in college who is basically best friends with Raiola ... he said he's here to stay for sure ... sister just bought a house here too & he wants to play with his little bro and he's making BANK here, more than he would at any other school. Loves Rhule too, and quickly seeing why Dana has such a strong QB reputation ... God is good and so is this kid

Raiola's words thru my buddy - take it FWIW but hope it calms the board down RE transfer rumors

What is the best place to buy tickets for the bowl game?

Shortly after Phillip Simpson's addition to Nebraska's staff as outside linebackers coach became official, Florida State sophomore linebacker Omar Graham Jr. confirmed with me he plans to visit Nebraska on Dec. 12. On3's Pete Nakos reported first. He will also visit Kansas this week.

Second linebacker visit scheduled this week that we know so far, along with Fresno State's Phoenix Jackson, who visits on Dec. 11.

The third-year sophomore recorded 37 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, one sack and three pass breakups this fall for the Seminoles, and was a bright spot on an otherwise struggling team as he progressed through the season. He'll have two years of eligibility left.

According to multiple reports, Nebraska is trying to hire Phil Simpson to coach the outside linebackers/edge rushers.

Simpson was a defensive quality control coach at Nebraska in 2023 and was a big part of the Huskers' recruiting efforts to land the Miami guys in the 2024 class. He left the program early this year and spent the 2024 season at Florida State.


Edit at 7:46 p.m. on Monday, Dec. 9: Simpson confirmed the report himself. He’s officially back:

Updated (Sunday, Dec. 8)

There it is. Official news: Nebraska vs. Boston College in the Pinstripe Bowl on Dec. 28. But y'all knew that already 🤝


=================================

Updated (Friday, Dec. 6)

Nebraska is slated to play in the Pinstripe Bowl, sources told Inside Nebraska. Opponent is likely to be either Pittsburgh or Boston College. Game will kick off at 12pm ET/11am CT on Dec. 28 at Yankee Stadium in NYC on ABC.

=================================

These are all of the bowl games (excluding any College Football Playoff games, of course) that have contractual tie-ins with the Big Ten Conference.

It also includes the recent history of those bowl games involving B1G teams and those teams' records in each respective season to give a general idea of Nebraska's realistic placing in the postseason:

Anyone have any insight into the Miami vball team. Broadcast last night indicated they are dangerous

Any chance he decides to transfer. Rumors running wild over the last 24 hours.

All in! GBR

Rumors are he's staying.

Looks like he's hired, officially?

What the heck don't they know Bama is the best team ever...

He doesn't say anything about Satterfield in the interview, but says he has a strong relationship with Rhule and Holgorsen.
