The Common Fans examine some of the biggest questions facing Nebraska football as the Huskers look to take a big leap in Year 3 of the Matt Rhule era:

• What will it take to make special teams special again?
• Can we really expect the defense not to regress?
• Are the Huskers doing enough in the transfer portal?
• Offensive line: buying or selling?
• What can be done to improve game management in 2025?

The boys have a detailed and wide ranging discussion about where things stand and what needs to get better for Nebraska football in the year to come.

The Common Fans break down Nebraska’s 20-15 win over Boston College in the Bad Boy Mowers Pinstripe Bowl:

• On a sloppy day at Yankee Stadium, the Big Red gets a W in the Big Apple.
• Not always perfect, but the Huskers won the line of scrimmage and made big plays when they most needed to.
• Offense moved the ball consistently.
• Youth movement takes center stage on defense.
• Special teams disaster once again (but thankfully, not terminal).
• Rahmir Johnson’s big day.
• TyRob and the Polar Bear have their way with BC’s O Line.
• Seniors get their bowl win, and hopefully set a foundation for much bigger success in the future.

Plus, the boys talk about their excitement for what’s to come in 2025:

• Offense set for a big leap under Dana Holgorsen.
• Even with major departures on defense, the combination of young talent, transfer portal additions, and Matt Rhule’s track record give hope for continued excellence by the Blackshirts.
• Special teams overhaul.
• Year 2 for Dylan.
