HuskerOnline on Matt Rhule presser, Husker OL out a KEY player, Raiola vs. Illini defense & more

[@3jarone]

Matt Rhule is doing a wonderful job with discipline,accountability and mental toughness. I said get his extension ready right now

[@jiggy402]

With frost we probably be 1-2 so every week is hype and I love it . Thank you Matt rhule and this staff for bringing back the energy I grew up hearing about

[@korleysears2617]

Sip if you're talking about Billy Sims 1978 fumble inside the 5 yard line he didn't drop it. He got popped hard and future Gov Pillen jumped on it. I remember distinctively watching that game at my grandparents house with the entire family gathered around the TV which was coming in grey and snowy via those old time TV antennas in rural Nebraska. The length of time and the fans enduring dedication to the program decade after decade is what makes Husker Nation and Nebraska Football truly special. GBR!

[@IRONHORSE427RACING]

I could not have said it Better my self.

[@jdp0359]

I was at that 1978 game and that was the hardest hitting game I've ever seen. All the Oklahoma fumbles in that game were caused by hard hits.

[@BiggRedd-14e]

Sip, why did they give the ball back after Phelps obliteration?

[@MarkLong-y4i]

​@@BiggRedd-14e A ref ruled down by contact. No review back then. That ref was either an OU fan or had money bet on the game.

[@Killmore5555]

2k folks just popped open another tab to watch the Crouch touchdown again! GBR!

[@billcornish529]

Sip, that Simms fumble was 1978. Great game. My Senior year.

[@BWD51]

My first memory choo choo winters Breaking Free in 65 for first husker touchdown to beat Oklahoma 21-9. OU still had white helmets.

[@GermanBelgianwaffle]

2001 oklahoma for me to. You can see me in the front row as I was a student in south stadium in that corner. It was wild. Best memory. But I do have a lot of memories working the southwest corner upper concessions for 7 years. And getting $100 tip from texas fan we passed around in 1998. The ricky williams game with 37 carries. Great game to the end

[@maurabrowning2028]

Haha - my husband and I were living in Columbia MO after getting married in 2000. We skipped the Mizzou game and watched the OU game in 2001 at a bar - even though we had Mizzou tix and were on the way there. I had to try to convince my coworkers we must have just sat in the wrong seats! 😂

[@Indianabones319]

My first game too Robin.

[@jiggy402]

Ready to see the game plan for Illinois as we start out big 10 play

[@MattStory1024]

That's crazy 1994 Wyoming that was my first game too

[@jeremynebraska]

I’ve had a collapsed lung. I couldn’t imagine playing football with one. He was something special.

[@allenvaldeen5940]

Favorite? From the Knothole section, (Now South Stadium) NU had Kansas backed up to our Endzone. They gave it to a kid named Gale Sayers. 99 yd TD remains Big 8 record.

[@toddgallagher3100]

We only had 48 offensive plays and scored 34 points, that's pretty good effeciency

[@marcusa.ragnos1041]

We still covered, despite the conservative defense and missing two key linemen. I don’t feel overly confident going into ILL, but I’m not overly worried either.

[@Fabsterk]

Anybody know if there are any husker watch parties in the Kansas City area for this Friday nights game?

[@thmmke6926]

How about once in a while getting abbey a volleyball update segment,

[@JackClarke-zb8uj]

I think, unfortunately, Coach Rhule is ahead of the curve when it comes to 2nd half strategy for scoring, or the lack thereof. He may have the vision to anticipate a playoff schedule, but other schools haven’t gotten the memo and are still running up the score.

[@jeffcox2136]

Illinois always plays tough and tries to hit you mouth early and often. I'd like/hope to see Nebraska play a solid 4 quarter game. They will win if they play tough and not turn the ball over.

[@marcusa.ragnos1041]

Where do the mailbag Q’s come from?

[@teamna1]

78 we beat OU. 94 for 200th wasn’t it the first time for the HuskerVision ?

[@jiggy402]

This week should be another good week to bring recruits in. Top 25 match up against big 10 opponent with a good coach too

[@6minutespotlightwrestling]

The problem is it conflicts with the high school schedule. Most high school games are played on Friday nights

[@jiggy402]

@@6minutespotlightwrestling true true but I should of been more specific my fault . I met the in state recruits. Some schools have the games on Thursday this week because of the game but you are correct

[@user-ek3qg7yb3h]

Chancellor Bennet. Email on July 30. No unl in person classes. Building will be locked and only necessary staff to report for Friday. Sept 20

[@j_r_3404]

After Friday night's ranked game, Nebraska will potentially have 2 more ranked games by the time they meet Ohio State. Rutgers should be 4-0 when they play Nebraska and possibly ranked by then. Indiana will also be ranked and undefeated more than likely. Their schedule sets up nicely. Should be 6-0 when Nebraska comes to town. I cannot wait for the next month and a half of games. It's gonna be exciting 'must see TV' for Husker fans.

[@rpete9255]

Illinois defense giving 5 yards per Carry to opposing RBs , their o-line giving up a sack every 8.5 snaps (100th in fbs) the qb does get rattled and makes mistakes under pressure 🎉🎉🎉 gbr!

[@nebraskafootball372]

It’s my bubbas

[@michaelquigley1863]

When a team of 5 ⭐ studs plays against 3 ⭐ 'diamonds in the rough' and players with 'huge upsides' play...you get Alabama v Wisconsin..poo poo the rivals/On3 ⭐ ratings but they tell you all you need to know..reloading beats rebuilding every time head to head

[@Corn_Stache]

Is Robin bummed or relieved that Matt Rhule didn’t pick on him this week?

[@wayiamstarr]

Johnathan Taylor

[@JackClarke-zb8uj]

Simms fumbled in 1978, colder than you know what.

[@DG-mo5kr]

Why do you have a lighthouse on your hat Sip?

[@johnsimon4263]

Huskers play Thunderstruck before 4th quarter. The song came out in 1990. It is like playing Benny Goodmans "Sing Sing Sing" in 1964 when the Beatles came out. 34 year difference. Really need to update the music.

[@lukehouser9317]

Do you hate life?

[@PantyDr0ppa_2Six]

Start with scrapping that God awful Celtic polka killigans song. My god is that bad.

[@Lukuigi]

Let’s not forget, this Illinois defense that causes turnovers has 3 of their 6 against J. Daniels who is awful.

[@jorgy1470]

4th. What’s Micha do!?!?

[@nevermindme8922]

That’s what I want to know

[@JarodKing-u3u]

What the heck did Michael mizuka do suppose he's going to be in the transfer portal before you know it smh gbr❤🌽☠️🎉

[@alexanderthegreatandterrib4589]

Mazucca was the lowest graded starting lineman versus Colorado, why do people keep saying he is our best lineman, this is BS, with his attitude and his recent performance he is not the guy. Lutofsky is grading about the same if not better than Mazccua at least in pass protection. Mazuccua was replaced against Colorado and rumor is he blew up at a coach. Mazucaa has to shape up or ship out. Our o-line will be tested against Illinois and we will find out what we really have then.

Do you know how to beat Illinois and their shady defense? SMASHMOUTH FOOTBALL!!!!!!

first

[@TheGrapeofWrath1]

I hope Sipple refrains from writing another passive-aggressive article on Rhule and his staff. Sippple thinks that he has the right to make his off-color remarks because he was stated prior to the season that Nebraska needs to be 9-3 to have a successful season. It's not about you, Steven.
