Nebraska Basketball is BACK: 10–0 Start, Illinois Test Next + Husker Football: Vegas Bowl vs Utah

Husker Nation… HUSKER HEAT CHECK TIME. Nebraska just routed Creighton 71–50 in Lincoln, making it three wins over the Jays in the last four years—and the momentum is getting LOUD. The Big Red is now 10–0, riding the longest active win streak in the country (13), and this start ties the best start in Nebraska men’s hoops history.

Next up? A ranked Illinois team—and that’s the kind of game that tells you exactly how real this group is. Measuring-stick vibes. No ducking smoke.

Then we flip it to football : Nebraska closes 2025 with the Las Vegas Bowl vs Utah on Dec. 31 at Allegiant Stadium (2:30 p.m. CT on ESPN). Big picture: Year 3 of the Rhule era ends with back-to-back bowl trips and real momentum. And we hit the reported staff movement—Rob Aurich (San Diego State edge coach) being linked as Nebraska’s next defensive coordinator after John Butler’s exit, plus the OL coach change with Donovan Raiola out and Geep Wade reportedly the likely replacement.

Tap in—hoops is surging, football is shifting, and Nebraska is stepping into a defining stretch.
