    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. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    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.

  4. Eight wins or six for Nebraska football in 2026? It’s not as simple as it sounds

    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.

  5. An answer to Nebraska football’s problem with mounting pressure?

    An answer to Nebraska football’s problem with mounting pressure?

    Is Matt Rhule’s Nebraska football program on a one-year clock? Should it be two? Perhaps the solution to mounting pressure and negativity in Lincoln is this: Take a step back and evaluate the Huskers over a two-year period. After all, it’s highly unlikely that the Huskers can manage more major change in the offseason after 2026 than they’re already set to tackle, with a big chunk of Memorial Stadium set to come down.  Did you see how much money the Big Ten made in the most recently completed fiscal year? It’s the most ever by quite a large amount. What the big pay day means for Nebraska — and why the model that produced $1.47 billion might be coming under some new scrutiny, thanks to Duke basketball. Also, we check in with Nebraska volleyball on scheduling and Nebraska men’s basketball for a roster update. Join us. Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

    Nebraska football: Bad news on the recruiting trail as Ahmad Hudson rejects the Huskers

    The news of Ahmad Hudson’s commitment on Sunday to LSU did not come as a surprise in the football recruiting community. Still, it dealt a blow to Nebraska, which had recruited the five-star tight end out of Ruston, Louisiana for longer than a year. In swooped Lane Kiffin over the past few months to secure the pledge of an in-state star. What does it mean for Nebraska and Matt Rhule and Trae Taylor? We discuss. Nebraska baseball laid an egg at Ohio State. Perhaps that talk about a ticket policy for a potential home regional served as a bad omen. No such misfortune struck the Nebraska softball team, which swept Penn State and secured the Big Ten title. What’s next for Rhonda Revelle and her squad? And we go back to the football conversation for a rare look — in this 2026 offseason, at least — behind the scenes with Rhule’s team.

    Did Nebraska step over the line with its postseason ticketing policies?

    The Friday mailbag is here. Thanks as always for your questions. We’re loaded with topics. Would Nebraska football have been better off without Dylan Raiola? Has Nebraska basketball filled its needs in the transfer portal? And what is the athletic department strategy in pushing aside baseball supporters as it prioritizes postseason ticket-buying opportunities?  We’re talking talent vs. development. Who’s in charge of the stadium rebuild? Should Troy Dannen be checking the phones of his athletes? And who will most be missed from Matt Rhule’s 2025 squad? Join us for all of that and more.

    BIG 10 SQUAD: The NCAA Tournament is EXPANDING | How this affects Nebraska

    College football playoff chaos looms as postseason expansion rumors ignite fierce debate. Could the Big Ten secure eight playoff spots in a future super-sized format? The Big 10 Squad tackles the growing influence of money on NCAA tournament and College Football Playoff changes, questioning whether tradition or TV contracts will shape the future of Big Ten powerhouses like Michigan State, Penn State, and USC. The crew breaks down Michigan State’s outlook under Pat Fitzgerald, with FanDuel setting a three-and-a-half win total. Can quarterback Alessio Milivojevic and the Spartans shock critics with a stronger season? Plus, hot dog eating contests and schedule traps add intrigue to a season already rich with drama. With insiders debating expansion fatigue, scheduling quirks, and long-term survival for non-revenue sports, this heated roundtable asks: Where is college football heading, and who will rise or fall when change arrives?
