Nebraska football fans—enjoy this one. We break down the Huskers’ gritty win over Michigan State and push back on the doom-and-gloom, then pivot into a full Maryland preview with matchups, game-plan tweaks, and keys to keep the momentum rolling.

In this episode of Big Red Junkies, BJ, Matt, and Jed recap a chaotic, wind-whipped game that swung on defense, special teams, and late execution. We talk Dylan Raiola’s decision-making, the sack discourse (scheme vs. OL), and why the front seven’s surge matters going forward. Then it’s on to Maryland: what the Terps do well, where Nebraska can attack, and why this matchup should favor the Blackshirts if we win early downs, protect situationally, and stay aggressive with the ball out on time. We also hit on Emmett Johnson’s usage as a safety valve, Barney’s return game, and the ongoing Big Ten QB arms race that’s changing how games are called. Finally, we make our weekly over/unders: sacks allowed, Maryland rushing total, total yards (Raiola vs. Malik Washington), special teams TD odds, turnover battle, TFL edge, and who leads Nebraska in tackles.
