  • It’s ok.

    I listen to a lot of pods from the Locked On network and the majority of em seem like guys that are actually routing for the team they’re covering…because they are. This one seems more like a couple guys who took a job covering a team. It’s good for info but, if you’re looking for guys to give ya something to route for, this sadly isn’t it.

  • Good daily show! Wish we got some more scoops

    Mitch and Connor do a great job handling the tough task a daily podcast presents. They really shine in the late off season and early season, when there is a lot going on.

    One ask, and I know it’s hard but the most recent “will he, won’t he?” Raiola conversation was pretty brutal. We’re gonna just speculate like people at my water cooler? I get Nebraska reporters love their access but really? I know Mitch has something to work off of other than speculation.

  • Who Keeps Paying Mitch Sherman?

    Going to Mitch Sherman for any legitimate insight or analysis of any kind is like going to a brothel for a hug.

    Yeah, you got there eventually, you probably got what you wanted and your itch scratched, but you should be much smarter with how you value both your money and your time.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is Nebraska football prepared for ALL that awaits at Autzen?
Q: What changed in Oregon's approach after their win against UCLA and how might that influence this week?
Oregon's defense looked stronger than its offense last week, and the staff may rely on a balanced approach with both quarterbacks being considered, focusing on avoiding giving Nebraska favorable conditions.
One number you’re not considering that will help shape Nebraska football in 2026
Q: How might Raiola versus Calandria impact Nebraska's outlook this season given the current roster context?
While Dylan Raiola has high upside, Calandria's current fit with the surrounding talent—especially in the offensive line and running game—suggests Calandria could maximize the team's chances this year, with Raiola potentially benefiting later if development continues.
One number you’re not considering that will help shape Nebraska football in 2026
Q: What will be looked for in Monday's press conference beyond the words themselves?
The hosts expect Matt Rhule to demonstrate a long‑term, grounded confidence and to reveal signals through body language and prior offseason work that show he believes the team is on the right track, even if he remains measured in statements.
Is Matt Rhule holding onto a secret about this Nebraska football team?
Q: Has Nebraska outgrown the single digits? Are they still planning to do it this year as a symbol of toughness?
The players with single digits are still in the program, and it's treated as normal business rather than a big spectacle this year.
Cornfields and QB talk on Nebraska’s first day of football camp
Q: What stood out from Anthony Colandrea's media session on day one?
Colandrea spoke with poise, offered thoughtful answers, and suggested the team's offense could unlock more explosiveness, while keeping some information close to the vest as he navigates this early time with Nebraska.
