Welcome back to Bleav in Nebraska — I’m your host Bryan Colbert Jr.

We start with official 2026 football kickoff times and what they mean for the vibe in Lincoln, including the Ohio opener (Sept. 5, 11 a.m. FS1), early home slate spots like Bowling Green (Sept. 12, 6 p.m. FS1), North Dakota (Sept. 19, 6:15 p.m. BTN), plus big calendar notes like Black Friday at 11 a.m. on CBS and Illinois Friday night (Nov. 6, 7 p.m. FOX).

Then we hit recruiting — Nebraska’s push up front and why “building in the trenches” is the clearest sign of where this program is headed.

And we close with Husker heartbreak, reflecting on a historic softball run and what it meant for the state, the standard, and what comes next.
