Brandon Vogel from The Counter Read joins the Common Fans to talk about the win over Michigan State and look ahead to Saturday’s game vs. Maryland.

• Perhaps the biggest takeaway from the win over Michigan State was the huge step forward taken by the defense.
• Blackshirts becoming a havoc defense.
• The way the Huskers finished–scoring 24 unanswered points even after stalling in the middle part of the game–makes the 2025 squad seem different from other recent Nebraska teams.
• Do Husker fans need to calm down and enjoy the win?
• What’s behind Nebraska’s inability to protect Dylan? What to make of the offensive line so far?
• Brandon’s take on the excellent play from Mike Ekeler’s special teams units so far.
• Is Ekeler the best hire Matt Rhule has made?
• Message to all Common Fans: don’t message Husker players on social media!

Also, the crew pivots to Saturday’s game vs. Maryland:

• Taking a look at what we know about the Terps.
• Mike Locksley’s team is a surprising 4-1 so far, leading the Big Ten in sacks and coming in with a strong pass defense.
• Maryland offense struggling so far.
• Discussing what it means that the Huskers are getting to College Park a day early.
• Brandon sees a tight game, with Nebraska ultimately prevailing.
• And finally, Nebraska's got a chance to be 6-2 or 7-1 going into the USC game. That would feel like real improvement and real momentum for the program. Discussing the importance of the next three games.
