In this story:

The Common Fans are jubilant as they discuss Nebraska’s first win over Wisconsin in 12 years. 

  • Husker Nation is dancing in the streets as the Big Red gets to bowl eligibility for the first time since 2016. 
  • The Nebraska offense played with fearless abandon, carrying the day and never letting Wisconsin make it interesting. 
  • It wasn’t just beating the Badgers but how they did it: the Husker offense had its way with Wisconsin.
  • Dylan Raiola, Emmett Johnson, Jacorey Barney and more show what this offense can be. 
  • Time to pay Dana Holgorsen whatever he wants to stay as offensive coordinator. 

Plus, the boys talk about what it means for the program and the fan base:

  • Resetting the narrative for the entire season. 
  • Rhule said this will be the only time we celebrate six wins…but we are absolutely celebrating. 
  • Bowl memories for a new generation of fans.
  • Promise for 2025 and beyond.
