This week, Zach and Vance dive into a packed lineup of football, politics, and a few Nebraska curveballs.

🏈 Nebraska vs USC:

Huskers fall 21-17 after Dylan Raiola’s season-ending leg injury. Backup T.J. Lateef couldn’t get the offense rolling, but Emmett Johnson still crossed 1,000 yards on the year with 165 in the loss. USC gashed the Blackshirts for 202 on the ground while Nebraska’s defense held their passing game to its worst day in seven years. Next up: UCLA.

🏀 Husker Hoops:

Fred Hoiberg notched career win #200 as Nebraska dominated West Georgia 86-53 — Frager dropped 22 and the team owned the glass 49-37.

🏈 NFL:

Jordan Love threw maybe the worst ball of 2025, Dallas mourns DE Marshawn Kneeland, and the trade deadline went nuclear — Sauce Gardner to Indy, Quinnen Williams to Dallas, the Eagles loading up, and half the league shaking rosters.

🏘 Local:

Norfolk City Council flips the old Mi Tienda Hernandez grocery into a liquor-store zoning, PD breaks ground on a $7 million expansion, and campaign filings show Dan Osborn paying his wife’s new consulting firm $114K off-disclosure.

🗽 In Other News:

Sen. Rick Scott’s No Budget No Pay Act blocked by Dems.

Ron Johnson warns the filibuster fight is heating up.

Pelosi retires after calling Trump a “vile creature” — and he fires right back.

Meanwhile, Zohran Mamdani’s socialist win in New York has even Stephen A. Smith fuming, and Dr. Oz joins Secretary Brooke Rollins in exposing how six Dem-run states allegedly funneled federal healthcare money to illegals.

It’s politics, sports, and plenty of Useless Assumptions — where the facts are true, but the assumptions… never are.

On Todays episode Zach & Vance discuss Nebraska Football, College Football top 25, NFL key match ups, Halloween madness, Diversity statements for professors, suicidal empathy, 2010 CNN Obama Renovation, Soybeans being sold to china, Mamdani to ruin New York City, Government Shutdown and SNAP, and some spooky stories

On Todays episode Zach & Vance discuss Nebraska Football, College Football top 25, NFL key match ups, NBA starting off with arrests, Norfolk NE man arrested drugs who tried to get into the high school because he thought it was the ER, No Kings Protest, Illegal immigrants on Caleb Hammer's show, Minnesota or Somalia, Illegal Truck Drivers, Jon Stewart & Bernie Sanders, Hunting stand near Palm Beach airport, and a huge breakthrough in cancer research. All that and more on todays show!

This week on Useless Assumptions, Zach and Vance break down Nebraska’s gritty win over Maryland — where Dylan Raiola struggled but Emmet Johnson ran wild and Special Teams came up clutch. Then it’s a trip around the sports world, from college football chaos to the NFL’s never-ending drama.

In local news, Governor Pillen takes on Nebraska’s property tax mess, and we dive into the “Good Life, Great Careers” initiative.

Then buckle up for national madness: sterile flies in Texas, D.C. judges going soft on crime, ICE fences falling in Chicago, and the FBI snooping on Senators. Add Bernie, Fetterman, and “No Kings Day” chaos — and you’ve got another week of America losing its mind.

Where the facts are true, but our assumptions are useless.

The Useless Assumptions crew is back with a wild week of wins, losses, and political chaos. Nebraska pulls off another Husker victory while Washington fumbles another play — the government shutdown drags into Day 9, Trump steps in on the Middle East ceasefire, and the world keeps spinning.

We break it all down with laughs, facts, and a few useless assumptions along the way. Grab a drink, hit the comments, and let’s talk football, politics, and everything in between.
