Corn Nation: for Nebraska Cornhuskers fans

Corn Nation Over Reaction: Nebraska is Far from Rocky Mountain High After Loss to Colorado

The Battle for the Soul of the Nation, I believe one colleague put it on Corn Nation. The epitome of all that is good in the world and, well...Colorado.
36 to 14. 
This one will haunt us for some time. Turnovers that led to Buffalo points. A field goal that clangs off the upright. bonehead error after bonehead error.
But a defense that did its best to keep the game close to try to give the Nebraska offense a legitimate shot at putting something together.
To hell with the history between these two schools and that rivalry. The only game in the 120+ year history of Nebraska vs Colorado that matters is the one that was just played, and Nebraska couldn’t get it done.
Glimpses of offensive competence that are mired in a scheme that has not worked to put many points on the board in 2023. Nebraska is averaging 12ppg through the first two games, and that may only be good enough against Iowa.

Five Heart Podcast 343: Tuesday Night Special - Nebraska Beats Self and Has Red Hot Colorado Next

Well, clearly the Matt Rhule Era did not begin the way Matt Rhule, his staff, the Huskers, or Husker Nation had hoped. If you missed the Corn Nation Over Reaction episode, you can get it here.
   • Corn Nation Over Reaction Podcast: Br...  
This week on the Five Heart Podcast on a Special Night because of a Chiefs game on Thursday, Jon and Greg are joined by a recently returned Hoss Reuter. Hoss has thoughts. He has notes. And like Greg, he has optimism.
Plus, we’ll hear about Jon’s in-stadium experience being in the belly of the beast last week for the game against Minnesota.
And we look forward to Colorado, a team that came in with a ton of hype and apparently answered the call, winning on the road against a Top 20 TCU squad. Coach Prime kept receipts. But we’ll find out this weekend if he actually listens to the Five Heart Podcast.

Corn Nation Reaction: Minnesota

This is the first Corn Nation Over Reaction full episode in two years, or ever since Jon’s tree-side and bathroom videos became so popular.
This week, Hoss Freakin’ Reuter is back as he and Greg discuss Nebraska’s 13-10 season opening loss to at Minnesota. What went wrong? What went right? And who’s to blame?
Hear the guys break down offense and defense, as only Hoss can do. And we get caught up on what has been going on with Hoss in the last year or so.
The duo breaks down all of the controversy, from Gabe Ervin Jr’s near touchdown to Minnesota’s game-tying score late. Are we panicking? Can the mistakes be cleaned up?
What do you do when your biggest adversary is yourself?

Five Heart Podcast 342: Nebraska Gameday Eve!

Nebraska Football is finally here. On the heels of Volleyball Day in Nebraska, Jon, Jarek, and Greg bring you the last show before the season. Think about this...we’ve spent the entire off-season building to this point. The last time we did a show this close to a Nebraska football game, we were celebrating the 24-17 win over Iowa.
Since then, the team has seen the interim head coach be arrested, the new head coach announced and with that announcement, subsequent assistant coach hires. The transfer portal, the signing of one of the most electrifying talents in the state in Malachi Coleman, spring football, attrition, and more.
It has truly brought us all to this. It’s the day before Nebraska’s first game. It’s the galvanizing moment each year when hope springs eternal and some say “I’m not ready to love again.”
But all of the talking is done as Nebraska and Minnesota will battle tomorrow night for the vaunted $5 Bits of Broken Chair Trophy, an icon of what makes college football truly great.
It’s the Five Heart Podcast. It’s live. It’s beautiful. And it’s free to most people.

Five Heart Podcast 341: One Week to Go to Minnesota vs Nebraska

This week on the Five Heart Podcast...it’s the little reminder you needed that we’re one week away from kicking off the 2023 Nebraska Football season. If you aren’t entirely bought in and predicting a 15-0 season, can you even call yourself a fan?
Jon and new guy Jarek will go over some of the final aspects of the end of Fall camp, you know, probably the hottest one on record. Matt Rhule and Company have the team firing on all cylinders, are into the new and expensive locker room, and we have a quarterback!
Oh, you didn’t know? Cade McNamara, the transfer portal acquisition upon which Iowa was pinning all of its hopes and dreams, has “no comment” on the timetable of his recovery. Is it a long con? Or is THE MAN in Iowa City down for an extended period of time?
And as a bonus...Greg is actually here!

Monday Night Therapy: BASH IOWA NIGHT! (Koolaid Drinking, Get Ready for the Season Hullabaloo!)

Tonight is BASH IOWA NIGHT!
It’s time to get ready for the upcoming 2023 Nebraska football season. Join us as we make fun of our opponents because we can.
And if you happen to be an Iowa, Minnesota, or whatever fan and want to throw some slag our way, have at it. We’re not exclusive!
OH. And in other news:
I am 8 years old today. 8 years ago, August 21, 2015 I was dead for 20 minutes from a widow maker heart attack.
So when people tell me to act my age, I am.

Five Heart Podcast 339: Single Digits and Season Tickets (No Relation)

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and Jon discuss the new allowance of single-digit uniform numbers as instituted by Head Coach Matt Rhule. Also, season ticket holders received their physical copy tickets this week. Not only did the Athletic Department hear the cries of the people and bring back physical tickets, they are enhanced with digital extras.
We discussed changes in the Big Ten, including the possibility of the championshpi game being played in Las Vegas.
Meanwhile, Chip Kelly has an idea of doing away with conferences and having two large divisions (made up of Power Five and Group of Five schools) and letting them battle it out. And to that I say...bring on relegation!
One of our commenters gave us some Superchat $$$ and asked about our worst away game experience. Jon tells the story of his, noting that his wife still gets angry about it every time it comes up in conversations.
Furthermore, Colorado social media is just silly sometimes. And Jon gives us details on the Mn4NE gathering before the first game of the season. More info on that is here!!!
The comments were lively once again this week!

Five Heart Podcast 340: Alternate Uniforms are in but where are the Blackshirts?

This week, Jon’s in a lodge somewhere watching Cocaine Bear with and and reacting accordingly, so Greg called in some familiar faces to join him on the show this week.
Todd is here, and he’s supposed to play the role of the crotchety old man, but he’s surprisingly pleasant and upbeat. And making his Five Heart debut is legendary Husker fan and all-around superb individual Brett Baker. Brett shares his thoughts on the Day by Day documentary among other Husker topics.
One of the main topics, predictably, is the alternate uniforms that were revealed this week in a stellar video package. Owning the fact that 100 years ago, Nebraska donned blue uniforms to welcome Oklahoma, because THEY BOTH CAN’T WEAR RED, the Huskers will have a thin blue outline around the numbers for one game in October. But Greg is more impressed by the details on the shoulders, as they replicate the four stone carvings around Memorial Stadium. Brett however thinks the thin blue line isn’t enough and wants Nebraska to fully embrace the blue...for one game only.
Also, and I can’t believe I’m saying this...we haven’t seen the blackshirts yet. What is Matt Rhule’s plan on one of the more storied traditions within the program?
These topics and others are all part of an all-new Five Heart Podcast.

Monday Night Therapy: Nebraska Fall Camp, Pac-12 Destruction, And What Do The New Guys Bring?

I prompted Leonardo.ai something like “Matt Rhule riding into Memorial Stadium on a unicorn, looking like a savior” and THERE YOU ARE!]
Todd starts the show by getting his frustration out on people who were rooting for the USWNT to lose. I hide under the desk for a bit.
Then we go into an update on what’s happening with Nebraska football’s fall camp. Tommi Hill, lots of linemen talk, lots of comments from our viewers. Everybody is in better shape.
A commenter asked what we could expect different from this year from Donovan Raiola and the offensive line. They get an answer.
We spend the latter part of the show talking about the Pac 12, because... well, it effects all of college football. Todd is sad that Stanford is being left out. I am not because they did this to themselves as a result of crappy leadership.
Then there’s the news today that Cal and Stanford might join the ACC.
I think that’s silly.
