No Husker fan walked away happy with what they saw against USC Saturday night. The Huskers could neither run the ball nor stop the run – two pretty big keys to winning football games. But the Huskers were facing the...

I held off posting my reaction to NU blowout home loss to USC last night, because I was afraid I might say something rash, or that I might regret. Make no mistake, watching NU get wholloped at home creates a...

I only got about three hours of sleep last night. The conditions that caused the sleep deprivation are inconsequential. Their effect, however, is momentous. In this sleep-deprived, caffeine-fueled state of being, I had a vision for Saturday. I discovered how...

The #1 USC Trojans are coming to Lincoln Saturday. Haven't you heard? You have to go back to 1978 to find the last time an AP #1 came to Lincoln. Ah, those were the days. The Huskers still ran...

In today's world of sports media hype and hyperbole, some may say it is safer for a team's chances (and healthier to their psyche) to stay out of the hot light of public scrutiny. But, you can also argue that...

You’ve got to beat the best to be the best. That’s a saying in sports that goes back as far as anyone can remember. It’s been especially true in college football. In 2005, Texas beat #1 USC to win...

It’s hard to think of a single player that did more to hurt the Huskers in 2007 than USC wide receiver Dwayne Jarrett. Jarrett had 11 catches for 136 yards and two touchdowns for the Trojans in the 28-10...

Husker fans will no doubt take issue with the fact that Nebraska only threw 17 passes in its 28-10 defeat at the hands of USC. Surely, with only a meager 2 yard rushing average the Huskers could have thrown...

Enough talk. It's Husker game day! You probably have a few questions that need answering prior to kickoff. Like... What time is kickoff? What channel is it on? Where can I find the game on the radio? Can I...

How quickly things change. Two days ago, the Trojans were anywhere from an 18 to 19 point favorite over Nebraska. Now, amid allegations that Reggie Bush received improper benefits, the line has already moved down to 17.5. The betting...
The Injury Factor
I was reviewing USC's roster and depth chart (again). And, as I've noted in the past, I'm impressed with their overall talent level. But, the two recent injuries on the defensive side of the ball prompted me to issue this...
Are you going to miss the USC game?
I don't have to tell you that tomorrow's game against USC is B-I-G. It is so big, that ESPN is filming Game Day in the Coliseum parking lot and ABC is showing the game nation-wide during prime time. Everyone...
The Last Upset?
The Huskers go into the USC contest as a heavy underdog, just as they did versus Colorado and Michigan last season. But if the Huskers win this game, they would likely be favored in every contest going forward....

Sizing Up USC
As is weekly tradition, I compared the USC depth chart to Nebraska’s looking for size mismatches. Against Nicholls State, the Huskers were bigger across the board. This week, sadly the Huskers are on the short end....

As a Husker fan, this week’s comments by Andre Jones made me absolutely cringe. Specifically, NU’s starting cornerback opened his yap and said - “When we beat USC, this is going to slingshot our whole season, we're ready to go...

"Did you drink the Kool-Aid?" It's a question, along with some variants ("He didn't drink the Kool-Aid", "Don't drink the Kool-Aid") that I'm hearing more and more these days. It's popping up everywhere from corporate in-speak to political talk radio....

Previewing USC Like many people, I tend to view the world though the lens of my own experience. Call it perception. Call it bias. Whatever. But, as I consider NU's upcoming opponents, I end up comparing them to the Husker...
Most Anticipated, Least Important

ABC announced a 7:00 p.m. Central, 5:00 p.m. Pacific kick-off time for the NU/USC game in Los Angeles. Is this a seemingly trivial piece of information, or something fans should take note of? I put it in the latter...
Will Bush Controversy Lead to End of the USC Dynasty?
We've all heard it said about great programs before, they don't rebuild - they reload. USC in recent years has been a clear example of that. Last season, it almost appeared they didn't really start recruiting until December and...
SoCal Spasms?
