It was my impression that the players did exactly what the coaches asked of them on Saturday, except for maybe a small handful of plays. But perfection in any college football game is unattainable. So my question this week would...

Usually I go into a game week writing about the upcoming game for Nebraska. This week in particular, I expected to write about how the Huskers needed to be looking forward rather than backward, because they'd be playing a team...

Not to make too much of Dennis Green’s now fairly famous rant after getting beaten by the Chicago Bears…but, it is a testament to the power of advanced scouting. To a large degree, Saturday’s performance against Virginia Tech revealed that...

You could taste it. Nebraska had the game in hand and it slipped away. It's hard to fault the players, they played hard and they played well for much of the game. It's hard to fault the coaches, they did...

Husker fans know all too well. Just because your team had 40 winning seasons in a row, doesn't guarantee the 41st. Thirty-five straight bowls won't get you a ticket to the 36th. You can beat Kansas thirty-seven straight times and...

Today, much of the buzz about NU revolves around Niles Paul and Mike McNeill. This is for good reason, considering the "breakout" performances both had Saturday against Arkansas State. No doubt, the talent of each player was a major factor....

Plan of Attack: Virginia Tech

You can call the Virginia Tech offense a lot of things--anemic, opportune, underwhelming--but I prefer parasitic. The Hokies' offense lives off their defense and special teams, they need them to survive and so far, at 3-1 against a much tougher...
The Bye Benefit

Unlike the departure of Branden Ore, the 4-6 month injury to running back Kenny Lewis coupled with a broken fibula by Jahre Cheeseman in a recent scrimmage is cause for concern for Virginia Tech. While the Hokies should still have...

When it was announced that Virginia Tech running back Branden Ore would not be returning in the fall, it would be easy to take that as a positive in terms of what it means for the Huskers when the teams...
Recruiting Roundup: Virginia Tech
The Hokies brought in a class somewhat like Nebraska’s. It’s big, but not particularly beefy (i.e. not a ton of linemen). They’ve got some four-star players in defensive end Leon Mackey, running back Ryan Williams, guard Vinston Painter, receiver D.J....
