In this story:

The Common Fans celebrate Nebraska’s 34-3 win over Northern Iowa:

  • While perhaps a little bit sloppy, the Big Red took care of business to get to 3-0.
  • This offense is fun to watch - playmakers everywhere, and with Dylan Raiola, everything seems possible. 
  • Nebraskans everywhere! Heinrich Haarberg (Kearney), Carter Nelson (Ainsworth), Jaylen Lloyd (Omaha), and Tristan Alvano (Omaha) make significant contributions in the win. 
  • The boys love how Coach Rhule and his staff are able to identify and recruit young talent that can get on the field and contribute right away. 
  • Special teams trending up!

The fellas also explore some questions heading into week 4:

  • The defense looked a bit less dominant, with some uncharacteristic missed tackles and trouble getting off the field on 3rd down. We won’t call it a question though, as the crew fully expects the Blackshirts to bounce back vs. Illinois. 
  • Will the offense get Thomas Fidone more involved?
  • What’s the plan with the running backs moving forward? Will they continue with the four-way rotation we’ve seen early in the season? 

This and so much more on the latest episode of the Common Fan Podcast.
