Well, we believe it's pure genius! Tune in to hear our take on the NF...

The road seemingly gets tougher for Nebraska the longer they go without securing that elusive sixth win. Their opponent this week is Maryland who is in the same boat. Win or the path to a bowl game only gets harder. What has to happen for the Huskers to bounce back?  Twitter: @Shanahman Twitter: @TylerSpinkel  Twitter: @BrookejBryne

Nebraska looses another game because of the worst quarterback play we've ever seen. Nebraska is the first team since 2020 Florida State to have three different quarterbacks throw an interception. Cubba Purdy happened to be on that team as well. Unbelievable

Following big wins a week ago Texas and Oklahoma State are in the drivers seat to get to Arlington. So that means it's going to be free and easy from now on right? Not so fast.

Nebraska picked up their biggest win of the season against Big 10 west pain in the butt Purdue. Big takeaways include a lot of questions being answered as far as our defense, kicker, and quarterback. The fellas also hash out their latest set of rankings. Twitter: @Shanahman Twitter: @TylerSpinkel Twitter: @BrookejBryne

One of the best rivalries in college football comes to an end in the most romantic way possible - the good guy winning. After a chaotic week in the conference, we finally have two teams with the inside track to Arlington to compete for a Big 12 championship. How does the final three weeks of the season shape up?

The boys react the initial CFP rankings and point out the inconsistencies. They also talk about the 2024 Nebraska football schedule that was released earlier this week. They mention briefly about a slam piece against future Ohio State AD Trev Alberts before discussing the magnitude of the Nebraska-Michigan State game.

This week the top six teams in the league, including the five in a five-way tie for first place in the Big 12 are playing each other. This brings the most interesting week in the most interesting league in America and I’ll tell you what I can not wait.

Oklahoma falls to Kansas, creating a FIVE team tie with two spots on Arlington on the line his week. How surprising is it that Iowa State is among the top of the league? Can the magic in Ames at night continue with a ranked matchup against the flamin hot Jawhakws?

After Nebraska’s 31-14 win over Purdue, this is what a division title looks like. Electric defense, and good-enough offense. Brandon also goes over who is better than what he thought, who is worse than he thought, and who is the same as he thought. 

The boys look back on Brock Purdy's time as a Big 12 quarterback fondly and discuss if he's been a good starting quarterback in his short time in the bay. The Big 12 title race is heating up in unexpected ways.

Brandon celebrates his third straight winning week by throwing out some crazy bets for week nine including a *checks notes* TEN team parlay. The fellas also break down some NBA and NHL futures as those seasons are now officially underway.

It sure wasn't pretty but Nebraska picks up another ugly win and believe it or not control their own destiny (kinda) in the Big 10 West. Iowa losses on a technicality but also did not deserve to win by any means. Tyler's first episode as a husband, Brookes first episode as a senior citizen (27 years old) Vibes are high.

Nebraska fights through some rust following the bye week against Northwestern. The good news is Nebraska is 4-3 and this is the latest into the season Nebraska has had a winning record since the Mike Riley regime. Bad news is that was a very ugly offensive performance. Who is to blame? Haarberg? Satterfield? Injuries? Brandon Shanahan discusses every piece of the disastrous unit. Also Iowa fans ar...

Nebraska returns to action against a scrappy Northwester team. In a solo format Brandon breaks down why Nebraska is poised for another blowout win. Twitter: @Shanahman Twitter: @TylerSpinkel Twitter: @BrookejBryne

The single most exciting thing about the new Big 12 is the power vacuum that's going to follow the exit of Oklahoma and Texas. Almost every single school in the conference feels like they can take this opportunity and run to a CFP birth every year if they can find some success here the next few years. There's also a Big 12 Conference Championship rematch in the little apple this weekend th...

After a stellar Bookie Brooke debut, Luke makes his anticipated return. Brandon places a bet with the biggest payout in the show's history as well as the first Cornhusker Connection parlay.

With the Huskers on a bye week the fellas bring on guest pickers Brett Sprinkel and Luke to discuss the action going this week. Twitter: @Shanahman Twitter: @TylerSpinkel Twitter: @BrookejBryne

If the season were to end today, West Virginia would be in the Big 12 Championship game. They avoid Texas in the back half of their schedule and outside of their matchup with Oklahoma, will be favored in every game until they lose. Iowa State rolls TCU and we ask the hard question: would Iowa State fans sacrifice going to a bowl game if it means beating Texas this year?

Following Nebraska's 20-7 win over Illinois, the guys take stock of where the Huskers are at heading into the bye week. Brandon once again has to reiterate that he does not in fact think Henrich Haarberg is an elite quarterback. Friend of the program Brett Sprinkel comes on to give his thought on how the Big 10 West is shaping up. Twitter: @Shanahman Twitter: @TylerSpinkel Twitter: @BrookejBry...

Before the game Brandon said Nebraska would beat up on Illinois despite being a three-point underdog, and now he's taking his victory lap. You can watch Husker Hangover every day following Husker games live on Twitter or on Youtube the next day.

With the final Red River Showdown as Big 12 members, who has the edge? The fellas also break down a not so impressive weeks worth of picks and bounce back with the shortened, but intense conference slate.

After dominating the show to this point, Brooke finally reveals what he looks for while making his picks in and out of the show. Putting his money where his mouth is, the fellas make another round of picks. While more than $3,000 down, Brandon goes with a different approach in an effort to catch up.

Brandon and Tyler continue their debate over who the better quarterback is on the roster. Once the fellas settle down, they asses the challenge at hand this week and that's Illinois.
