Sunday Side Session: An ugly November
Nebraska football played Michigan on Saturday and fell in a 34-3 game that probably wasn’t as far apart as the score indicated but not as close either. Gary Sharp joined Mike Schaefer to break the game down and discuss how the Huskers got to this point, if Michigan was a markedly different team than 2021 where the Huskers hung close and, of course, a conversation about the quarterback decision and quarterback play. Eventually conversation shifted to what things look like going forward, who the next coach needs to focus on to keep on the roster and the development of a young defense that looks like a bright spot for the Huskers. Then things finished talking about the conference as a whole and specifically who wins the Big Ten West? Could it really be Iowa? The Hawkeyes? With that offense?

Husker247 HypeCast: Michigan
Nebraska heads to Michigan on Friday and the Husker247 crew has the coverage you want for a game that certainly looked more interesting before the season started. 1620 The Zone host Josh Peterson joined the group to chat about the game and the conversation started with quarterback play and who the Huskers might put out there between Chubba Purdy and Logan Smothers. From there it was discussed both how the Huskers can move the ball and if Trey Palmer or Anthony Grant can have a bigger game against a tough Michigan defense. Finally while talking offense there’s a debate on if we could see more tight end or running back receiving usage after the success the Huskers found last year? Defensively Nebraska won’t have Myles Farmer after his suspension for getting a DUI. What does that mean for the Huskers? How has Ochaun Mathis looked this year? Who can use Saturday as a way to get developmental reps? Then it’s time for oddly specific predictions which get a little kicker heavy and each participant makes a pick to click and a score prediction. Does anyone pick Nebraska to win? No. But can the Huskers cover on Saturday? Be sure to subscribe to the Husker247 Podcast wherever you listen to have episodes downloaded automatically to your listening device.

Husker247 Podcast: QB blues, coaching chatter and hoops begins
The Husker247 Podcast covered a lot of ground on Tuesday. Things begin with some early banter about where The Big House ranks among stadiums Brian Christopherson and Michael Bruntz have been to followed by some reminiscing about games played there. Eventually someone points out this podcast needs to go somewhere and discussion morphs to Nebraska’s quarterback situation. What happened at Minnesota and are the Huskers making any changes? What about a little coaching chatter? Both Bruntz and Christopherson give thoughts on a handful of coaches before the conversation changes to what has happened with Joseph and if the last few weeks get held against him. Finally there’s basketball talk after the Huskers win a season opener against Maine and the team looks quite a bit different than in previous years under Fred Hoiberg. Does that change anyone’s outlook moving forward? Be sure to subscribe to the Husker247 Podcast to have episodes downloaded directly to your listening device.

Sunday Side Session: How the Huskers lost the backup bowl
This week on the Sunday Side Session Sam McKewon form the Omaha World-Herald joins Mike Schaefer to discuss Nebraska’s latest frustrating loss. As expected the conversation starts at quarterback where the two dissect what led to Nebraska choosing Chubba Purdy before Saturday and then the in-game decisions that resulted in sticking with the backup, even after it was well apparent he struggled when things went off script. From there McKewon offers an analysis of Mark Whipple and Nebraska’s overall offensive strategy as well as how the Huskers choose to attack. Plus he gives thoughts on what worked against Minnesota and why when the Gophers adjusted the Huskers saw holes close up defensively. The discussion flipped to the defensive side of the ball and why Athan Kaliakmanis was a problem for a Nebraska team that had jumped on Tanner Morgan from the outset. Finally the two discuss Nebraska’s mentality and how the Huskers have consistently come up short for years and if that necessitates a clean slate and a total start over.

Husker247 HypeCast: Minnesota
The Husker247 HypeCast returned with Gary Sharp from 1620 the Zone and started with a brief summation of the weird recent history between Nebraska and Minnesota, as the two teams have played some strange and notable games in recent seasons. From there Sharp talked about his expectations for Nebraska football this weekend in a similar kind of game as the one the Huskers lost to Illinois last Saturday. Michael Bruntz discussed the merits of getting Anthony Grant going in the running game and if Alante Brown and Chancellor Brewington are one offs or can use the Illinois performances as a bit of a launching pad for the final month. Defensively Sharp touched on how the Huskers defended against Illinois’ Chase Brown and if things would look similar for Minnesota’s Mo Ibrahim. Then Bruntz discusses Nebraska’s ability to slow down an RPO attack that has befuddled the defense for several seasons. Finally there are oddly specific predictions, featuring several interesting names forecasted to be doing big things, picks to click and finally score predictions.

Husker247 Podcast: QB concerns and coaching search chatter
Plenty to talk about and the Husker247 Podcast managed to cover a big chunk of it in one big swoop. On this episode nearly everything was covered. The talk actually starts with a brief couple minute discussion about Nebraska basketball and where things sit before diving into the Illinois game, what happened the second half, how the Huskers could approach the forthcoming week and more. And before moving off the game the Husker247 crew chatted about what this all means for Trey Palmer and the work Nebraska’s defense did that could provide a little hope for the next few games on the schedule in November. From there Mike Schaefer threw out a question regarding the coaching search. Each of Schaefer, Michael Bruntz and Brian Christopherson discussed who should tell Nebraska no and who represents a good fall back option if athletic director Trev Alberts receives a couple rejections. The podcast ends with a conversation about Nebraska’s recruiting after the Huskers added running back Arnold Barnes to an intriguing running back room and if there could be another commit or two this month for the Huskers.

Sunday Side Session: That could've went better
Another Sunday. Another conversation about a Nebraska team that failed to seize an opportunity right in front of it. On Saturday for almost a half the Huskers were in position to be holding a lead and threatening, maybe, to even push it to a two score lead against a ranked team. After forcing a three-and-out and with good field position the Huskers had the perfect play. And it was dropped. Two plays later the game flipped. Two plays after that the score flipped. Thank you for playing. What else happened in the Illinois game? Plenty and that’s why KLIN sports director Kaleb Henry joins on the Sunday Side Session to discuss what happened and what we should take from the loss.

Husker247 HypeCast: Illinois
Hopefully everyone enjoyed another brief intermission because that’s the last time this season Nebraska won’t be playing on a Saturday.

Can Nebraska play spoiler? Can the Huskers slow down Chase Brown? Are we hyped yet? This HypeCast features a regular guest in Kevin Sjuts, who reprises his role as the guy we go to when talking Illini football. This year Sjuts has kept a close eye on the Illini and he provides a breakdown of some areas where the Huskers could be in trouble. Additionally Michael Bruntz highlights the importance of Anthony Grant and what the Huskers have to do to get off the field against an Illinois offense that has chugged along all season. Each, along with Mike Schaefer, make oddly specific predictions and provide a pick to click before making a final score prediction. How do they see this one turning out? Tune in and find out.

Husker247 Podcast: Mickey or the field?
Husker247 gathered during the midpoint of Nebraska’s second bye week to talk about the Purdue game, Nebraska’s team as it heads into the final five contests, Mickey Joseph and where things sit with the recruiting. The show opened with a conversation about Nebraska’s contest at Purdue, what Michael Bruntz and Brian Christopherson saw on the scene, how Trey Palmer kept getting open, how good Aidan O’Connell and Charlie Jones were and why Nebraska’s pass rush remains a pretty big concern. From there Mike Schaefer posed a question to the group at large — right now if forced to wager is Nebraska’s next coach Mickey Joseph or the field? This led to a discussion about Nebraska’s interim coach and what’s ahead for the Huskers, what likely has to happen for Joseph to keep the job and how winnable any of Nebraska’s final five games are against Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin and Iowa. Finally recruiting pops up as the trip talks about Lincoln East’s Malachi Coleman and his upcoming decision. Are the Huskers the heavy favorites here? Any surprise teams?

Husker247 HypeCast: Purdue
Nebraska has a chance for its first three game winning streak since October 2016, when the Huskers started 7-0 ahead of a critical game against Wisconsin. This effort at a trifecta looks radically different as the Huskers have battled back from a 1-3 start to evening things up and sitting at 3-3 overall following wins against Indiana and Rutgers. That’s why it is the perfect time to get hyped for this game against Purdue on Saturday. The Husker247 crew plus Jack Mitchell talked through the game, the matchups and what oddly specific things could happen along the way. Among the conversations had on Thursday morning was if Nebraska’s best offense is throwing deep passes to Trey Palmer, which Huskers are on the mend and which could be playing Saturday, if Nebraska can put together an attack against a strong Purdue defense and what to make of Casey Thompson’s season so far. Then things switch to the defense where we learn what life might look like without Luke Reimer if the linebacker is unable to go in the middle, who’s going to stop Charlie Jones and if the Huskers are equipped to make Saturday night hell for Aidan O’Connell behind a beat up Boilermaker line. Then the gang discusses oddly specific predictions which seem to be focused on turnovers and big plays for Nebraska, before selecting picks to click and providing game predictions. Did anyone dare take Nebraska or was the spread too big and the jump in competition too large for the group?

Sunday Side Session: Huskers survive and advance
Nebraska football survived on Friday with a 14-13 win. On Sunday John Bishop of 1620 The Zone joined Mike Schaefer to look back at the game and what happened. The two start the conversation with Nebraska’s slow open to the game and the defense’s quick rebound following an ugly first drive. From there the conversation gets to how the Huskers figured out some adjustments on both sides of the ball. A big chunk of the Sunday conversation centered on a pair of Huskers who had important performances on Friday night. There’s was Garrett Nelson, who followed up his Indiana game with another strong outing against Rutgers. And Casey Thompson who hung tough behind the patchwork and struggling offensive line, taking hit after hit but giving the Huskers a chance in the comeback. Finally there’s conversations about the big concern for Nebraska moving forward and what to make of Mickey Joseph as Nebraska’s coach after three games so far.

Finally the guys get down to brass tacks and make predictions - both oddly specific ones that might happen in the game - and game predictions. Do all four see the Huskers returning back from Ireland victorious? Listen in and find out!
