The Common Fans break down Nebraska’s rugged win over Rutgers:

  • Huskers win an old fashioned, Big Ten rock fight against the Scarlet Knights. 

  • Nebraska led 14-0 at half and then held on for the win. 

  • Celebrate 5-1!

  • Huskers learning how to win, have responded with backs against the wall the last two weeks. 

  • Blackshirts come up HUGE.

  • Two interceptions, game-defining, 3rd quarter goal line stand headline performance by the defense, which also largely bottled up standout RB Kyle Monangai. 

  • With two blocked punts and a possible injury to punter Brian Buschini, Special Teams remains not so special. 

The boys also explore some questions heading into the bye week:

  • What to do about Special Teams? The place kicking unit, the punt blocks, and the coverage units have been anywhere from average to bad all season long. 

  • Concern about Raiola? The true freshman had real struggles for arguably his first time as a Husker. 

  • Huskers travel to Bloomington after the bye week to face Indiana, who is 6-0 for the first time in their history. Just how good are the Hoosiers?

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