If there’s one team in the Big 12 North that distanced itself from the rest on signing day, it was Iowa State. The bad news for Cyclone fans, however, is that it was in the wrong direction....

The Cyclones made strides in 2007…just kidding. Actually Iowa State went from 4-8 in 2006 to 3-9 in 2007 under first year head coach Gene Chizik. The over-under might be 4-8 for next year too....

Huskers Thwart Iowa State

Yes, that headline says "Thwart". That's the right word. Look it up if you want. You could also say NU ruined, spoiled, or foiled ISU in a game where the Cyclones ran 102 offensive plays, but managed to lose by...
Grixby Has Senior Moment

September 30, 2007 by
One of the more criticized Huskers last season (and through the off-season) was Cortney Grixby. Despite being a highly-touted recruit out of high school, he became the scapegoat for big pass plays in the secondary a year ago (regardless...

This edition of HUSKER UP is not about a particular game, as others have been. Even though Iowa State comes to Lincoln Saturday, this edition is all about the Blackshirts. I honest to God don't care if Nebraska scores...

A look at the ISU depth chart gives you a quick sense as to why they’re 1-3 so far this season. Their offensive line is a patchwork unit with the tackle spots manned by a skinny junior college transfer and...

While legions of Husker fans are debating whether or not Kevin Cosgrove is a worthy defensive coordinator, Buddy Wyatt a worthy defensive line coach, etc., the real question surrounding the defense might be whether there are going to be enough...

Husker fans may remark, “Didn’t we just see this game”? Replace “Iowa” with “Ball” and the Huskers may well put on an encore performance from the week before. Look for a game where Nebraska dominates the line of scrimmage...
Big 12 Classes of 2007: Iowa State

The third in a 12-part series on the state of the Big 12. Iowa State did the right thing in firing Dan McCarney. After some success (by ISU standards), the Cyclones began backsliding to the bottom of the conference. The...

Iowa State made the right move in firing Dan McCarney. Not only were the Cyclones under McCarney failing on the field, but they were failing in living rooms around the country to recruit the kind of athletes that are...

I can't believe it. But, the ABC crew that produced this game made me long for a chance to listen to Jim Rose. Okay, maybe not that far. But, I'd settle for Fox Sports. The producers and crew were factually...

There are many things worth discussing following NU's win over Iowa State on Saturday. And, by all means, have at them Husker fans. From the revived running game to the supposed 'Gold Out' that ISU fans tried to create, the...
Huskers Run Past Iowa State

Sizing Up Iowa State
Like most Big XII teams, the Cyclones have an offensive line with fairly prototypical size (tall and 300+ lbs.). Statistically, this group has given up a lot of sacks and hasn’t gotten a ton of rushing yards. Running back...

Like many Husker fans, I had a sick feeling for much of the second half of Saturday's contest against Kansas. Even if the Huskers escaped with the win, what did it mean for an upcoming road date at Iowa State?...
