On Monday Night Therapy, Minnie Hunt welcomes Mike Corrigan of BobcatAttack.com to preview Nebraska’s season opener against the Ohio Bobcats. Corrigan explains his long connection to Ohio football, dating back to 1998, and discusses how Frank Solich transformed the program after leaving Nebraska. Ohio has won seven consecutive bowl games and enters Lincoln with an experienced, physical defense featuring several transfers from Power Four programs. Corrigan expects the Bobcats to rely on their defense, control the clock, and keep the game close. Despite that, he predicts a Nebraska victory on Saturday.

The discussion then turns to Nebraska’s roster, with the hosts examining the large number of returning players and transfers. They expect improvement along both lines but acknowledge that the team’s cohesion remains uncertain until the new players take the field.

The show also celebrates Nebraska volleyball after the Huskers swept No. 2 Texas. The hosts praise the team’s depth, chemistry, talent, and sportsmanship, while discussing the season-ending injury to Texas star Andi VanderWal. They believe Nebraska has a legitimate opportunity to compete for another national championship.

The episode closes with Husker history, memories of Frank Solich and Bo Pelini, a tour of Husker memorabilia, and lighter conversation about pets, fish tanks, and Arizona wildlife.

In the return of Corn Nation's Sunday night show, Corn Nation Overreaction, Jake, Greg, and Hoss (for a limited time only) are back to talk about the Husker off-season.

It has been a long and seemingly quiet off-season for the Nebraska football team. Well, to clarify, the team has been busy. Changes to the coaching staff and additional personnel from the transfer portal give the trio plenty to talk about.

But we know what you're really here for…season predictions.

Don't listen to Jon, who said in a recent video that season predictions are dumb. We know you've been asking how good this team will be all winter, spring, and summer.

What's the floor for this squad? What is the ceiling? And can the Huskers expect to be bowl eligible for the third straight year under Matt Rhule?

Does success or failure truly live in the games against Washington, Illinois, and Iowa like some would suggest? Are there upsets to be had on the schedule? Should we be trembling in our cleats like national prognosticators and/or pessimistic Husker fans think?

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Minnie, Fred, and Greg have much to share as we are just nine days out from Husker Football.

Nebraska Volleyball opens their season at AT&T Stadium against the Florida Gators with $1 Million on the line. The match might be over before the show begins, but if not, we will keep you updated on the Huskers' progress. By the way, check out the interview that host Minnie Hunt did with Andi Jackson. You can find it on Corn Nation's YouTube channel.

When the conversation shifts to football, the topic of future scheduling takes root. With the CFP expansion, AD Troy Dannen announced that Nebraska will face Power 4 competition in their non-conference schedule. What teams will the Huskers face in 2028 and beyond?

As for the 2026 Cornhuskers, Glenn Thomas and Lonnie Teasley talked up the offense this week while announcing Anthony Colandrea as the 2026 Nebraska starting quarterback. Two running backs also spoke to media this week as freshman Jamal Rule and junior Mekhi Nelson each had a chance to talk. We learned that Rule picked up bowling unnaturally quickly, while Nelson took the summer to reflect and grow as a person after some accusations landed him in hot water.

This and more, as we're just outside of a week until Nebraska Football. Join us and be a part of the greatest Husker community on the whole Internet!

Minnie Hunt’s Monday Night Therapy focuses on whether Nebraska’s revamped offensive line can finally become a strength. After ranking 115th nationally in 2025 and allowing 33 sacks, Nebraska made major changes, including hiring offensive line coordinator Geep Wade and run-game coordinator Lonnie Teasley. Wade brings an aggressive “dirtbag culture” emphasizing physicality, relentless effort, finishing blocks, and repetitive fundamentals, while Teasley brings SEC and NFL experience and a focus on simplifying blocking schemes.

The projected starting line features Elijah Pritchett at left tackle, Paul Mubenga at left guard, Justin Evans at center, Brendan Black at right guard, and Tree Babalade at right tackle. Minnie emphasizes their experience, physical size, and previous production, particularly the three transfer additions. Evans stands out after allowing no sacks last season and earning preseason All-American recognition.

Hunt also examines how quarterback mobility could affect the line. Pritchett’s pass-blocking performance improved significantly when TJ Lateef replaced Dylan Raiola, because Lateef’s ability to escape pressure and extend plays reduced the burden on the tackles. The group appears to have promising depth, with several players capable of rotating. Ultimately, Hunt believes cohesion will determine whether Nebraska’s talented, experienced line can finally deliver.

The Five Heart Podcast focuses on Nebraska volleyball, football, fall camp, and the expectations surrounding the 2026 season. The hosts begin by discussing Nebraska volleyball’s Red-White Scrimmage, which drew more than 10,000 fans. They highlight strong defensive play, impressive performances from Andi Jackson and Laney Choboy, and the emergence of younger players. The hosts also discuss Nebraska’s ability to attract elite volleyball talent and the growing impact of NIL opportunities.

The conversation then shifts to football, beginning with the departure of running back Tikey Hayes after only 33 days with Nebraska. More positively, the hosts praise Nebraska’s quarterback depth, particularly the experience of TJ Lateef, Anthony Colandrea, and Danny Kaelin. They believe the position is considerably stronger than last season.

Offensive line depth is another major topic, with discussion centered on new coach Geep Wade, player versatility, and Justin Evans’ leadership. The defensive line also receives attention, particularly its depth, physicality, and the “attack, react” philosophy under Corey Brown.

The hosts express optimism about Nebraska’s 2026 season, emphasizing the importance of playing meaningful football in November and competing against every opponent. They also debate the future of Matt Rhule, the sellout streak, NIL spending, and which games—especially Iowa, Ohio State, Indiana, and Oregon—would mean the most to win.

Monday Night Therapy focuses on what Nebraska fans actually know about the 2026 offense rather than relying on offseason hype. Minnie Hunt and Jon Johnston examine the measurable progress made under offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen, noting improvements in scoring offense, total offense, rushing, yards per play, and third-down efficiency from 2024 to 2025. Holgorsen also says this year’s offense has been installed and understood unusually quickly, although that does not necessarily mean it is his best offense in years.

A major topic is quarterback Anthony Colandrea and whether he is a better fit for Holgorsen’s system than Dylan Raiola. Colandrea brings experience, mobility, quick processing, and the ability to extend plays, all of which fit Holgorsen’s flexible offense. His 2025 statistics—3,459 passing yards, 23 touchdowns, nine interceptions, and 649 rushing yards with 10 touchdowns—provide encouraging evidence, although Nebraska still has to see how he performs under pressure.

The biggest unanswered question is replacing Emmett Johnson, who accounted for 40.7 percent of Nebraska’s offensive yardage last season. Rather than relying on one replacement, Nebraska may distribute carries among several backs while also using Colandrea’s running ability.

Overall, the evidence is encouraging, but the first three games should reveal much about Nebraska’s offensive identity and potential.

Tune in next week as we dive deeper into the Husker offense.

The Five Heart Podcast focuses heavily on Nebraska football as fall camp gets underway, with particular excitement surrounding the revamped defense. The hosts discuss new defensive coordinator Rob Aurich and safeties coach Tyler Yelk, praising their football backgrounds, straightforward personalities, and enthusiasm for Nebraska. The new 4-2-5 defensive scheme is expected to improve Nebraska’s ability to stop the run by putting more bodies near the line of scrimmage. The hosts also highlight significant offseason gains in player size and strength, including 667 pounds of added lean mass and 188 pounds of lost fat across the roster.

Several defensive players receive attention, including Dexter Foster, Vincent Shavers and Dwayne McDougal. The defense is emphasizing turnovers, with a goal of creating three takeaways every practice, while coaches are stressing tackling and forcing fumbles.

The discussion also turns to the offensive line, Justin Evans’ development at center, and the addition of transfer linemen and new coaching personnel. The hosts remain cautiously optimistic about Nebraska’s improvement.

The latter portion covers Nebraska volleyball, which enters the season ranked No. 1 after another deep postseason run. The team is described as veteran-heavy and cohesive under new head coach Dani Busboom Kelly.

We are likely going to have a lively show for you good folks Thursday night.

Fall football camp began this week, and the spotlight is on Lincoln. How is the team looking as Fall camp begins? What words of wisdom were given at Big Ten Media Days?

Somehow we missed that Dr. Tom Osborne was named to the Nebraska Hall of Fame, making him the first living person to receive the honors. That came before the legend had a bit of a fall this week.

Husker defenders (future Blackshirts) are calling new DC Rob Aurich a genius. Perhaps this week the trio will dive more into his coaching history and successes, and help tell the story of how he ended up in Lincoln.

The Akron Zips, you remember them (68-0 last season) are raffling off the opportunity for a fan to help script the first offensive drive of their home opener. So it has us wondering what plays we would call if Nebraska ever sold that opportunity.

And yeah…I think that's about the only newsworthy things that happened this week. Let us know if the comments if we missed anything.

GBR. Always. Even in the face of Armageddon.
