-We know Bill laments any basketball talk until at least January, but we don’t control the schedule---and Nebraska plays at Creighton in Omaha tomorrow night, regardless of our thoughts on it

-No one is really talking about it, probably because it’s the Friday before an important home game for Nebraska football…is that the only reason, though? Are people buying into the early version of this team?

Show sponsored by SANDHILLS GLOBAL

-Rhule came to Lincoln and started 5-3 in his first year before losing all 4 November games and ending 5-7 with no bowl game. He started this year 5-1 and has lost 4 straight games, needing one more win to get to a bowl game

-Some fans thought 8 to 9 wins was possible this year, and after 6 games---that seemed like a reality. Then the losing streak started

-With that being said, where do fans stand in belief in Rhule? His job is not in jeopardy (you’d think) this offseason, but we’re curious where your optimism is with him going forward…

-A 5-1 start has been followed by 4 straight losses to fall to 5-5, but 2 games remain to try and get the Huskers to bowl-eligibility and beyond

-A win over Wisconsin would clinch a bowl game and leave Wisconsin needing to beat Minnesota to make a bowl, AND end a 10-game losing streak to the Badgers

-A win vs. Iowa to follow wouldn’t foil any postseason for the Hawkeyes, but would be a cherry on top for beating 2 teams that have had Nebraska’s number…what it would mean to win both?

-Wisconsin has made 22 straight bowl games. You know all the excitement that Iowa fans get when they beat Nebraska to end the season and keep them out of a bowl game at 5-7? Nebraska could have that excitement while clinching a bowl game themselves

-Rhule was not hired at Nebraska to barely make bowl games or barely miss them---through nearly 2 seasons, that’s what we have though. No one is calling for his head yet but it will be REALLY uncomfortable if he goes 0-4 in November again

-Up next for Nebraska is Wisconsin, who the Huskers haven’t beaten since 2012. Several close calls the last few years have all gone the Badgers way, as they come off a 16-13 loss to Oregon on Saturday

-The Husker defense had a pick 6 and a strip sack fumble to help in the turnover cause, but otherwise gave up 400+ yards and couldn’t stop USC on the ground for most of the game

-Nebraska’s inability to score TDs in 2 straight red zone trips is really what lost them the game…

-Are these 3 games a trial for next year for Holgorsen or do you think it would have to go very poorly for him not to be retained for 2025?

-Nebraska hasn’t really faced any running QBs this season…how much concern do you have about USC QB Jayden Maiava’s legs on Saturday?

Show sponsored by SANDHILLS GLOBAL

-The whole picture is bizarre right now, as Holgorsen is an established offensive mind, but one who doesn’t have the luxury right now of Spring Ball and Fall Camp to get his offense going.

-If it doesn’t look good the next 3 weeks, it doesn’t mean that the offense won’t work---it just didn’t have enough time to gel and have cohesion if it goes south. How will Husker fans adapt with patience?

-Also, Nebrasketball plays tonight against Fairleigh Dickinson and Sip will be there…another close game?

-Husker fans who are frustrated with the lack of creativity with Marcus Satterfield’s offense have all sorts of dreams right now about what things could look like under Holgorsen---whether that’s fair or not

-The main goal is help get the team one win and get to a bowl game---imagine if they beat USC this weekend, got that monkey off their back, and then won the final 2 games to get to 8-4 on the year

-Does that make Holgorsen a certainty to come back next year or does that make him attractive to other schools trying to hire an OC or head coach?

-From start to finish, it seemed like UCLA wanted the game more than Nebraska, which remains baffling with what Nebraska has to gain with a win---their first bowl berth since 2016. Instead, uncomfortable weeks ahead

-UCLA converted 6 of their first 7 3^rd downs and never looked back, getting whatever they wanted through the air and on the ground. This bye week will be a blast for Husker fans…
