  • How Nebraska’s Dylan Raiola landed in Tier 4 – at No. 40 – among all FBS quarterbacks
    Jul 17 2025

    We’re joined on this Thursday by Sam Khan Jr. of The Athletic, who ranked all 136 FBS quarterbacks with Antonio Morales. They spent more than a month on the project and published their findings this week. Of note to us at the Locked On Nebraska podcast, Nebraska’s Dylan Raiola came in at No. 40. Before you get upset, that’s not bad. He’s in Tier 4 out of 7 nationally and in the top 30 percent nationally, with the potential to rise. Sam explains the process that landed Raiola in this position – and provides insight on how experts and insiders in the sport view the Huskers’ returning starter.

    Also, we’re looking at the list to find other QBs on the Nebraska schedule and from around the Big Ten. We review the ESPYs from Wednesday night and pay tribute to Lee Corso.

    And we finish the show with the final group of three in our Bowl of Fascination. Tune in.

  • Nebraska football: A bold prediction about one overlooked piece for the Huskers on offense
    Jul 16 2025

    Jumping back in on this Wednesday with the Bowl of Fascination countdown. It just so happens that Nebraska wide receiver Demitrius Bell shared an update on his return from a 2024 injury on Tuesday. What can the Huskers expect from this promising receiver? And aside from his injury, why is Bell overlooked as Nebraska and Matt Rhule inch closer to preseason camp?

    We’re talking, too, about more Huskers who fit into the overlooked category. SEC media days is halfway complete. How is it possible that somebody from the league played the Aggie War Hymn on Tuesday as Texas coach Steve Sarkisian walked on stage? What is the Big Ten equivalent of this gaffe?

    Nebraska has a schedule for Fan Day. It includes an open evening practice session on the first Saturday of August. We wonder if it will be well attended by Nebraska fans. And ESPN paid homage to our state on Tuesday.

  • Nebraska football: What if the Lane Train had made a stop in Lincoln?
    Jul 15 2025

    We’re dreaming today. Nearly three decades ago, Lane Kiffin, the Lincoln native and son of a Nebraska football icon, got his start in coaching. Around that time, the Huskers embarked on a roller-coaster ride that hasn’t stopped. Kiffin jumped around, landing in 2020 at Ole Miss, where he appears entrenched. His path never crossed with the Huskers, though it could have happened if the stars aligned differently on multiple occasions. What would that have looked like?

    Kiffin was on stage Monday at SEC media days. We believe he’s one of the most intriguing figures in college football. There’s more on tap Tuesday from Atlanta, where the SEC heavyweights will continue to argue against the Big Ten’s proposed College Football Playoff format modification.

    Nebraska baseball took a couple hits in the MLB Draft. And we dip into the Bowl of Fascination to find a sophomore for the Huskers on defense who turned heads late last season. Join us.

  • Nebraska football: Real talk about the most fascinating Huskers ahead of preseason camp
    Jul 14 2025

    We’re back on this Monday and getting serious about the Bowl of Fascination – our countdown of fascinating players on Matt Rhule’s Nebraska roster ahead of preseason camp. Practice starts in two weeks, so we’re doubling up today, with one player on the offensive side and one on defense. What do they have in common? Well, nine months ago, you may not have seen them as integral pieces. But now, there’s no doubt.

    Also, we review the weekend and discuss Ndamukong Suh’s official retirement from football. He is the greatest former Nebraska player in the NFL since … whom? SEC media days are here. They’re in Atlanta. So are the MLB All-Star festivities, an intriguing combination.

    We look ahead to Las Vegas next and discuss a former Nebraska baseball star in the news – and perhaps a future Nebraska basketball star. Join us.

  • The Nebraska football mailbag goes international; Arrowhead BBQ and tailgating talk
    Jul 11 2025

    The Friday mailbag opens with a challenge for our mapmaker. Can Nathan from Kansas incorporate questions from Europe? We’ve gone international, folks, with a request for advice on how to handle negativity on social media and a callout for our favorite foods to eat at a tailgate.

    Where can Nebraska look on its 2025 roster for a little moxie? Might the Huskers peer into the portal this month during its special summer season? Are national titles as enjoyable for fans to celebrate if the champion buys its roster? How might freshman Jeremiah Jones fit in 2025?

    And we finish with a flurry of questions and comments on Scott Frost, who’s captured the attention of our audience since early in the week, when he kicked dirt at Nebraska while making the rounds at Big 12 media days. Join us for a full mailbag.

  • Frost fallout: Did the former Nebraska coach further damage his legacy?
    Jul 10 2025

    It’s Thursday and we’re still talking about Scott Frost’s appearance from early this week at Big 12 media days. Frost threw shade at Nebraska. And it’s not gone over well in the Cornhusker State. Why the harsh reaction this time after Nebraska fans went relatively easy on Frost when he was fired for his 16-31 record over four-plus seasons?

    How does the Frost episode compare to other moments of former Nebraska coaches who threw darts at the Huskers? Also at Big 12 media days, on Wednesday Colorado coach Deion Sanders took the stage and conducted a press conference as only he can. We admit it, we’re fascinated with Sanders.

    Finally, the Bowl of Fascination brings to us an offensive piece with ability to raise the ceiling for the Huskers with Dana Holgorsen at the controls. Join us.
