Growing Pains: A Critical Look at the Slow Start by the Pac-12
Posted on 20 Sep 2011 by Rob Parness.
To the delight of SEC and Big-10 fans everywhere, the Pac-12 has been unimpressive and disappointing early in the season. Many proud west coast fans were expecting this season to be an opportunity for their conference to prove itself as the second best in the nation behind the SEC. However, after #10 Oregon’s loss to LSU in week one, teams like Arizona, UCLA, Oregon State and Washington also ...

Updates Prior to Tipoff
Posted on 2 Feb 2011 by Shaun Albin.
Breaking News: Andre Almeida, Huskers backup center, will not suit up for tonights matchup with the Wildcats. This will be huge for K-State. Almeida had the potential to give Nebraska power inside and could have forced foul trouble on an already depleted front line for the Cats. Big positive for KSU. Look for Curtis Kelly and Jamar Samuels to take advantage.

K-State/Nebraska Preview
Posted on 2 Feb 2011 by Shaun Albin.
The Wildcats enter tonight in desperate need of a turnaround. The Huskers bring intense defense, much like we saw last season from Kansas State. The Wildcats have many advantages, but must truly bring their A-game if they want any shot at knocking off Nebraska. Viewing matchups, the Wildcats appear to be in excellent shape. Nebraska’s four guard lineup composed of Brandon Richardson, La...

Jayhawks Tested, Emerge Unbeaten
Posted on 15 Jan 2011 by Shaun Albin.
Saturday’s game appeared, by all accounts, to be the game that could give the Jayhawks that one momentum building dominant effort. Perennial Big 12 punching bag Nebraska visited the undefeated #2 team in the country. However, when the final buzzer sounded, the Jayhawks emerged by the slimmest of margins. The Huskers seemed to dictate the tempo immediately. Doc Sadler’s group slowed th...

Tigers Win Big 12 Home Opener
Posted on 13 Jan 2011 by Nate Jacobson.
For the last couple weeks at Mizzou Arena it has been the Marcus Denmon show. Wednesday was no different as Denmon matched a career best with 27 points to lead the Tigers (14-2, 1-1 Big 12) to a 77-69 over the Nebraska Cornhuskers (13-3, 1-1). Denmon has had seven games where he has reached 20 points or more. The strength to his game has been his three-point shooting, and he put on another clin...

Nebraska stunned in role reversal
Posted on 31 Dec 2010 by Darshan Patel.
Many people picked this game to be one of the less attractive matchups and outcomes. Nebraska seemed convincing during their romp of Washington in September. But, this was a different story. This was an ugly performance by Nebraska. The Huskies had no turnovers, allowed no sacks, and committed only three penalties. They played physical, yet discipline. Washington knocked out Taylor Martinez wit...

Nebraska, Washington rematch at the Holiday Bowl
Posted on 26 Dec 2010 by Darshan Patel.
No. 17 Nebraska and Washington will meet on December 30 for the second time this season at the Bridgepoint Education Holiday Bowl in San Diego. These two teams played back in September with Taylor Martinez and Nebraska passing all over the Huskies defense. This seems to be a one-sided matchup if Nebraska’s offensive line shows up to play. Being able to give freshman Martinez a chance to step ...

Nebraska falls victim to turnovers as Oklahoma clinches BCS spot
Posted on 5 Dec 2010 by Darshan Patel.
No. 13 Nebraska ends its run in the Big 12 Conference with a disappointing 20-23 loss at the hands of rival no. 9 Oklahoma. This game was defined by the sloppy play of the offense and its lack of ability to hold on to the ball. Taylor Martinez did not look as confident as he did earlier in the year. Martinez only completed half of his passes and added in an interception. He was more focused on ...

Nebraska, Oklahoma for the Fiesta Bowl
Posted on 2 Dec 2010 by Darshan Patel.
No. 13 Nebraska will play its final conference game as a member of the Big 12. Before it looks ahead to the Big Ten, it has business to finish up. The Cornhuskers will face no. 10 Oklahoma on Saturday night to determine which team will advance to the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Both teams are coming off big wins that landed them here. I feel this will be a shootout game, with each team giving up plen...

No Martinez, no problem for Nebraska
Posted on 27 Nov 2010 by Darshan Patel.
The Cornhuskers are officially into the Big 12 Championship game next week in Dallas. They did so by tearing apart Colorado 45-17. The regular star Taylor Martinez was held out of this game due to a bad right ankle and left foot. Another star that emerged in his place was Rex Burkhead. He threw for two touchdowns and ran for another one. Burkhead never had any big game-changer runs. He was cons...

Nebraska hosts Colorado, looks to clinch division
Posted on 23 Nov 2010 by Darshan Patel.
A close loss last week to a Texas A&M team, who has been on fire, put worries into Cornhusker fans. No. 16 Nebraska will play Colorado this week the day after Thanksgiving, where it can clinch the North with a win or a Missouri loss. There was some controversy after the game with rumors were flying around that quarterback Taylor Martinez had apparently quit the team after he was chewed out ...

Nebraska edged by Texas A&M, waits to clinch division
Posted on 21 Nov 2010 by Darshan Patel.
No. 9 Nebraska will have to wait another week to clinch the Big 12 North losing 9-6 to Texas A&M. It ended its hopes (if it had any coming into this week) of a national championship. In that case, this loss really did not hurt the Cornhuskers chances of the Fiesta Bowl. They still control their own destiny. However, who saw this outcome coming at them? I surly did not. I thought this would ...
