Locked On Nebraska - Daily Podcast on the Nebraska Cornhuskers

It’s a mailbag Friday at the Locked on Nebraska podcast. We’ve got questions about the Huskers’ ceiling as a football program and the urgency to hand over control of the offense to QB Dylan Raiola. 

Connor and Mitch chime in on Jacory Barney, Tommi Hill and more. And then it’s time to make our weekly picks and predictions. Is Raiola set for a big day through the air against the Scarlet Knights? Who will lead Nebraska in rushing? What happens this week for the Huskers on special teams and in the penalties category?

Finally, we make our pick for the game in Lincoln and several others in the Big Ten and around the nation in Week 6. Join us and have a great weekend.

Are Nebraska fans sleeping on the importance of Rutgers' visit to Memorial Stadium this Saturday? Don't, say Connor and Mitch, because the outcome of this game might mean everything to Matt Rhule's team in where it plans to go in 2024.

Up after the bye next week are trips to Indiana and Ohio State. The Huskers don't want to be in position to take a losing streak into November. And the only way to avoid negative momentum as they go back on the road in two weeks ... is to beat Rutgers. We discuss what's at stake this week. Also, Nebraska released a new episode of "Chasing 3" on Wednesday night, providing plenty of insight into what's happening with the return of linebacker Javin Wright from a difficult preseason diagnosis. And it covered Rhule's mindset before, during and after the Huskers' road victory against Purdue.

Nebraska returns to Memorial Stadium on Saturday to face unbeaten Rutgers and its star running back, Kyle Monangai. The Scarlet Knights plan to run the ball at the Huskers and test the physicality of the Blackshirts. Is Tony White’s group up to the challenge?

Connor and Mitch give their thoughts on Nebraska’s ability to hold up defensively against Rutgers after a series of up-and-down performances in recent weeks out of the run defense. Also, Ceyair Wright, the actor, appeared at media availability on Tuesday in Lincoln. What did he have to say about any plans to make more movies while he’s living in Nebraska? 

And we discuss one Nebraska player who’s not getting the attention that he should. Who is it? Why do we feel this way, and what does it mean for the Huskers?

The Nebraska football team will finish the first half of its season on Saturday at Memorial Stadium against Rutgers. As Matt Rhule’s team moves ahead after four wins in five games, we’re talking about special teams – which has not served the Huskers well.

Are we hearing it as it is from Rhule when it comes to the kicking game, or is the Nebraska coach working to speak improvement into existence? Connor and Mitch look at the numbers and discuss where the improvement needs to start for the Huskers to field an average to above average unit of coverage and kick teams. Also, the Big Ten acted on Monday about an officiating problem. But it was a weak response to an issue that never should have rated as a problem. 

And we finish this episode by discussing the emergence of Ceyair Wright, the USC transfer and silver-screen son of LeBron James who’s given the Huskers a boost in the secondary. How much can Wright impact the second half of this season?

Introducing Miami EXPOSED vs Virginia Tech? Hokies did NOT poke new holes in Mario Cristobal's team from Locked On College Football.

Follow the show: Locked On College Football

Miami had to defend a hail mary on Friday night to hold off Virginia Tech, in a game where the Hurricanes trailed for large chunks of it. Did the Hokies and Brent Pry show a repeatable formula for anyone else to knock off Mario Crisotbal's Miami team?

On today's episode of Locked On College Football, Spencer McLaughlin is joined by 'Locked On Utes' host JT Wistrcill. Did Colorado really elevate themselves to the status of Big 12 title contender with a dominant win against UCF?

The G5 Playoff chase is well underway, with Boise State leading the charge led by Heisman-cabable running back Ashton Jeanty. Will UNLV be able to keep it going after throttling Fresno State on Saturday under a new quarterback?

Nebraska has returned home after its 28-10 win Saturday at Purdue and begun to prepare for Rutgers. Coach Matt Rhule and the Huskers want to let you know that Nebraska is a good team. Who are they trying to convince?

Connor and Mitch are here to talk about the Huskers' mindset at this moment in Rhule's build. Young players like Dylan Raiola and Jacory Barney don't need to hear from anyone that they're good. They know it. Is it that way for everyone in the locker room, though? We also discuss the weekend in college football and the travesty that is Big Ten officiating.

Nebraska rebounded from a scoreless first half at Purdue to put up 28 straight points and blast the Boilermakers on Saturday in a bounceback performance after the Huskers' first loss of the season. 

So is everything good now? Well, not exactly. Connor and Mitch break it down in this reaction episode. The Nebraska special teams remains a mess. Its offense was off track in the first half . And still, the Huskers posted their first three-score Big Ten road win in nearly five years. Coach Matt Rhule got flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct. Dylan Raiola may have played his best game at Nebraska. And the Blackshirts are back. Join us as we go over the Huskers' fourth win of the season.
