Nebraska lost again. Let's talk about it.

Josh and Jack discuss Nebraska's 28-20 loss to USC in all its glory, including:

• What changes and similarities they saw in the Dana Holgorsen offense in his first game.
• The Blackshirts' inability to get a stop when it was needed.
• Dylan Raiola's continued regression.

Plus, the amazing ability Nebraska has to play in and lose so many games like this.

Towards the end of the pod, they discuss why a sixth win is vital for the Matt Rhule era while wondering if it's even going to matter.

This leads to an all-time Jack rant towards the end of the pod!

Jack and Josh get together to discuss one of the biggest news items of the entire season: Dana Holgorsen is the new OC. They discuss:

• Jack's thoughts on why he didn't expect this to happen but why he's still not apologizing for pushing back against the Fire Satt crowd!
• What could actually improve in the final three games and if differences will be noticeable.

Speaking of 2025, the guys discuss how the Rhule era could be defined by this move and the necessity to make a bowl game.
