Back at a dreary and rainy Haymarket Park today as the Huskers look to complete the two-game series sweep over Northern Colorado today at 2:05 p.m. Pretty dominant victory for Nebraska yesterday who slugged three home runs and eight extra-base hits in a 12-1 game that ended with the run-rule. Here's the recap:


Drew Christo will get his third career start for the Huskers tonight. The sophomore owns a 4.50 ERA in two appearances so far in 2023 across two innings pitched. 6-foot-2 sophomore Jack Tuttle will start for the Bears. In 4.1 innings pitched, Tuttle has a 16.62 ERA in two starts giving up eight earned runs on eight hits.

For those who want it, here's the series preview:

We heard from Matt Rhule, tight end Thomas Fidone and linebacker Chief Borders today to wrap up winter conditioning. Hit the link for my five takeaways from an afternoon of press conferences.

Another big day for the Huskers. Hit the link.

GBR!

Thinking of a slightly early retirement, and living abroad for 1-2 years. Sounds like Costa Rica is a good option. Any advice is appreciated. tia

sad story

make every playing surface natural yesterday

God knows what breathing in 120-degree ground up tires does to the body (not to mention the 1 additional traumatic lower-body injury doctors have admitted are caused by field turf over the course of a season)

Passed away at 64. Senior in 81. 4th highest scorer in Husker basketball history.

Would anyone be willing to photoshop a mandalorian with paint colors to look like the NU football uniform?

I am no artist myself and would appreciate the help

Let's think out loud about the Huskers' EDGE position. It's a group that has two players who we'd like to see step up and grab the opportunity, but there are other new faces who could make some noise, too.

Walker earns a spot on the 2nd team. Tominaga snubbed - Honorable Mention.

FIRST TEAM
Terrence Shannon Jr., Illinois
TRAYCE JACKSON-DAVIS, Indiana
Kris Murray, Iowa
Jalen Pickett, Penn State
ZACH EDEY, PURDUE

SECOND TEAM*

Tyson Walker, Michigan State
Derrick Walker, Nebraska
Chase Audige, Northwestern
Boo Buie, Northwestern

THIRD TEAM
Matthew Mayer, Illinois
Jalen Hood-Schifino, Indiana
Kobe Bufkin, Michigan
Jett Howard, Michigan
Clifford Omoruyi, Rutgers

11 wins on the year is now the most in a season since he’s been here. Good stuff Fred.

Seriously though Tominasty was on fire today.

If they get in without a deep run in their tourney this system to me is a total joke. They are 1-9 in quad one games. Yet they have a NET of 49? All the while NU has 4 quad one wins and we sit at 92. They have no bad losses.... we have no bad losses. Two of our quad one wins are graded better then there only one. So this equates to 42 NET points better then us? I don't consider us a tourney team but as it stands right now it looks like if they win one ACC tourney game they're in easy.

Watched him play against Ames today in the Iowa Boys Basketball Tournament. Dude is a man amongst boys!! Iowa St. bound.

Day 2!

I would love to see the pushing of the QB eliminated from football. However, if the ball is handed off or caught by pass play pushing would be ok. Thoughts?

Travis Vokolek gave his thoughts on last year's locker room culture and the lessons he learned from his time in Lincoln during last week's NFL Combine. Some pretty in-depth reflection from him here:

My 20 something home opener!
I'm still sitting here excited as hell for tomorrow.
Cold as usual but still so much fun!
It will be good to see Mike Anderson too.⚾️
The smell of the field!
The crack of the bat.
A Holmoka home run😁
Got to love it.
GBR!

4.33 40 time. #1 time for WR- wow did not realize he was THAT fast. Good man to hold the husker receiving yards record.

Really interesting stuff from Thomas Fidone II today. He touched on quite a bit, and there's a lot to unpack.

Andre was my favorite player during my freshman year at Nebraska. There was one play that to me described how Andre played. There was a break away by the opponent and Andre came from under his own basket and sprinted as fast as he could, he was trailing the player with the ball and no one thought there was anyway he was going to make a play. As he approached the top of the circle he dove head first like Superman to knock the ball out of the players hand and hit the floor about the free throw line and slid all the way under the basket. The crowd went nuts. No player has ever played harder than Andre Smith, at least that I was fortunate enough to watch in person.

Entertaining a few VPs next week and was “advised” to have a few gift bags of local food items. Need some snack type ideas. Cant be anything refrigerated. So far we have Bakers chocolates and pipeline jerky. Any other ideas for a dog and pony show would be appreciated.
