It was fall football weather Friday night in Champaign as the visiting Nebraska Cornhuskers rode a strong defensive performance to defeat the Illinois Illini 20-7. Nebraska improved to 4-0 in Friday night road games since 2017 and snapped a 3-game losing streak against Illinois. Nebraska hadn’t won a game going into its bye week since 2016, a 31-16 over Illinois. Coincidentally, that season was also the last time the Huskers qualified for a Bowl. Thanks to two stops inside the 1-yard line on Illinois’ opening possession, the Blackshirts set the tone early as to how difficult it was going to be...

On the first day of Fall, the Nebraska Cornhuskers used a strong second half performance to build a lead before weathering a game stoppage and then held off the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs to win 28-14. It was a sloppy game for both teams even though the rain didn’t appear until the fourth quarter and a lightning strike caused a 56-minute weather delay. Husker fans need to take wins any way they come -ugly or not. The Huskers once again started strong on defense and were slow out of the gate on offense. Louisiana Tech was scoreless in the first quarter, marking the fifth time in the past six games...

The Huskers' corps of running backs just got a lot thinner. Injuries to sophomore starter Gabe Ervin Jr. (hip) and junior backup Rahmir Johnson (shoulder) have ended both players' seasons, head coach Matt Rhule said Monday. The injuries occurred during Nebraska's win Saturday against Northern Illinois. This means junior Anthony Grant is back at No. 1, just like he was last season, with redshirt freshman Emmett Johnson and true freshman Kwinton Ives backing him up. "Those will be the first three tailbacks into the game this week," Rhule said. Also out for the season is freshman defensive back D...

Last year, the Cornhuskers were among the nation's worst teams running the football. According to cfbstats.com, the Huskers finished '22 rated #100 out of 130 college football teams. NU had a dismal 1,480 total yards rushing with an average of 3.52 per attempt and 123.33 rushing yards per game. Not since 2017 has Nebraska finished with a worse ranking. That's when Mike Riley's last Husker team finished #120 with 1,290 total rushing yards, 3.51 per attempt and an average of 107.50 yards per game. So how does Husker head coach Matt Rule plan to turn around such an anemic rushing game? That's a g...

Departure to portal is something the Huskers can absorb Heading into spring ball, one of the position groups that stood out and had Nebraska football coaches pretty excited was the running back room. Unfortunately, the team lost promising redshirt freshman Ajay Allen to the transfer portal after the Red-White game. While this is a loss that stings a bit, it's not overly surprising. Allen followed former Husker running backs coach Bryan Applewhite when the coach left TCU and brought him along in last year's recruiting class. Allen showed flashes of being a special player early last season befor...

Huskers Held for a Half before Hawks Handled by Grant’s Gains and Palmer’s Paws On a breezy but sunny September afternoon, the Nebraska Cornhuskers prevailed in their home opener against the North Dakota Fighting Hawks 38-17 in a game that wasn’t decided until the fourth quarter. The Huskers improved to 14-0 all-time against FCS opponents but it was struggle as the opponents dominated time of possession in the first half (20:38-9:22) and the Huskers had just 24 offensive snaps before intermission. Between the Blackshirts sloppy tackling and the offensive line’s inability to gel, the Huskers st...
