  • Nebraska Takes Care of Business Against Northern Iowa: Celebrate All the Ws
    Sep 16 2024

    The Common Fans celebrate Nebraska’s 34-3 win over Northern Iowa:

    • While perhaps a little bit sloppy, the Big Red took care of business to get to 3-0.
    • This offense is fun to watch - playmakers everywhere, and with Dylan Raiola, everything seems possible.
    • Nebraskans everywhere! Heinrich Haarberg (Kearney), Carter Nelson (Ainsworth), Jaylen Lloyd (Omaha), and Tristan Alvano (Omaha) make significant contributions in the win.
    • The boys love how Coach Rhule and his staff are able to identify and recruit young talent that can get on the field and contribute right away.
    • Special teams trending up!

    The boys also explore some questions heading into week 4:

    • The defense looked a bit less dominant, with some uncharacteristic missed tackles and trouble getting off the field on 3rd down. We won’t call it a question though, as the boys fully expect the Blackshirts to bounce back vs. Illinois.
    • Will the offense get Thomas Fidone more involved?
    • What’s the plan with the running backs moving forward? Will they continue with the four-way rotation we’ve seen early in the season?

    This and much more on the latest episode of the Common Fan podcast.

  • What Does the Win Over Colorado Mean for the Rest of Nebraska's Season?
    Sep 11 2024

    It's another View From the Blandstands, with the Omaha World Herald's Evan Bland joining the Common Fans to talk all the latest with Nebraska football.

    • What does the win over CU mean for the rest of Nebraska's season?
    • This appears to be the turning point we've been waiting for.
    • D line dominance: how the Huskers are getting to the quarterback while only rushing three or four players.
    • Will they need to blitz more in Big Ten play?
    • How much should we read into Nebraska's sloppy 2nd half on Saturday?
    • Dylan Raiola continues to impress, as Coach Rhule says “He’s at a whole other level. Those other guys better pick it up.”
    • How concerned should we be about Nebraska’s special teams?

    Plus, looking ahead to Northern Iowa:

    • #21 FCS team will bring a run-first approach to Lincoln.
    • Concerns about a letdown?
    • Huskers still in a place where they can't afford to look past anybody.

    All this and much more on the latest episode of the Common Fan Podcast.

  • Nebraska Stuffs Colorado in a Locker
    Sep 9 2024

    The Common Fans celebrate Nebraska’s decisive win over Colorado:

    • Like a school yard bully, the Huskers stuffed the Buffaloes into a locker on Saturday night.
    • Nebraska’s defense was dominant throughout.
    • The Buffs got punched in the mouth early, were in a big hole by halftime, and flat out quit by the 4th quarter.
    • Dominant first half: not only did the Huskers execute at a high level, they seemed to get every break.
    • Although the 2nd half was sloppy, the Husker defense made sure the game was never in doubt.

    The boys also explore the major questions heading into week 3:

    • Do the Huskers look to make a change in the kicking game?
    • Was the O Line’s performance in the 2nd half a function of situational play calling, or is there cause for larger concern?
    • Can the Huskers take the next step and learn to play with a lead?

    This and so much more on the latest episode of the Common Fan Podcast.
