@937TheTicket @jasonpeter Rhule needs to win 9 games next year. Beat Iowa. PERIOD. Husker fans are sick of bullshit Word salad. Play Great defense, consistent fundamentals, good special teams,no turnovers.Get these guys ready to play football. I don’t give a shit that they have a fancy locker room.

"Hearing (Rhule) talk the other day, he said, 'We were 6-2 and still in the College Football Playoff hunt.' Really? Did you really look at your team and say, 'This is a CFP team,'?" @jasonpeter joined Early Break this morning and addressed Nebraska Head Coach, Matt Rhule's, comments earlier this week regarding Nebraska's playoff contention status during the Huskers' 2025 season.

@HurrdatSports @MDBabs @ralulla @damonbenning @HailVarsity @HuskerFootball Enough. Just develop and coach players w fundamentals and playing consistent. I know people get tired of the Indiana references, but that’s what I’m talking about . Indiana was 3-9 before Cignetti showed up

“When I say we have enough [NIL] to compete now, guess what those other teams did? They said, ‘Oh, they got that? Watch what we do, boom.’ And the market changes. My job is very simply to say, ‘Hey, how come at Nebraska we can’t be first in terms of the output?’” - @CoachMattRhule Presented by @NextGenMaleMed

@937TheTicket Damn straight. We should be 10-2 this year. Stop making excuses for how we’re gonna get blown out by Indiana, Oregon, Ohio State and Iowa again. We haven’t been able to beat Iowa with three different coaching staffs. That is a culture problem. as a Husker fan, so annoyed by it.

"What would you say is a proper ceiling and something that is feasible for the floor for this (Nebraska) football team?" "Wouldn't you have to say in year four that 9-3 should be possible?" "Oh I think 10-2 should be possible," Early Break talked this 2026 Nebraska football team's ceiling and floor going into year four of Matt Rhule. @937JakeSorensen | @steven_sipple | @Coach_BillBusch

@937TheTicket @steven_sipple And don’t tell me we need better players either. Indiana had a bunch of nobodys that got coached up and developed from James Madison. They coached and developed Mendoza. These guys are coached well. They know what to do in the system. And they do it perfectly . That’s it.

"If there is progress, then these games against Indiana, Oregon and Ohio State... you should not neccesarily go into those thinking, 'we're gonna get blown out.' Because if you get blown out in year four by those programs, you can't really sell progress," On Early Break, @steven_sipple, while believing criticism on this Nebraska team should not ensue before they take the field, still thinks that there is a serious question regarding big-picture progress.

@937TheTicket @steven_sipple You want to win? Get a freaking awesome defense… An awesome defensive line and offensive line and a gamer at quarterback. That’s how you win. Why can’t our coaches do what Indiana did? Play consistently. Players in correct positions. No mistakes. That’s all football is.

@937TheTicket @steven_sipple I want Rhule to succeed. But after the frost and Riley debacles…Fans are fed up with the same bullshit. I was as patient as a Husker fan as you can get… Until Indiana happened.

@937TheTicket @steven_sipple Progress is measured on the field… Period. The way we finished the season our last three games did not show progress. And don’t tell the fans be patient. Yes I’m going to use the Indiana example. Indiana was 3-9 the year before Cignetti showed up. Coaching matters.

@samhoiberg My kids were at Pius the same time that you were there. Loved watching you at Pius X and loved watching you for Nebraska. Really appreciate all the grit and determination and dedication to Nebraska. Please make sure to come back when we hang the Sweet 16 banner in the Vault!!!

After a few days to reflect, the pain is still there, but less for the loss, and more just knowing I’ll never put on a Husker jersey again. Thank you Husker fans for making this experience the past 5 years the greatest of my life. This place means everything to me. GBR for Life❤️

@CBBonFOX @umichbball ya...nice non charging call...good lord

The go-ahead bucket for @umichbball to pull off the win against No. 5 Nebraska 😤

@MarchMadnessMBB @HuskerMBB @ArizonaMBB @MiamiOH_BBall Nebraska baby!! 0️⃣!!!

AND THEN THERE WERE 3️⃣ RT IF YOUR SCHOOL STILL HAS A 0️⃣ IN THE LOSS COLUMN 👏

@sidewayist @MarchMadnessMBB @VandyMBB @ArizonaMBB @MiamiOH_BBall @CycloneMBB @HuskerMBB Nebraska has beat 2 ranked and still plays 5 teams who are currently ranked

@MarchMadnessMBB @VandyMBB @ArizonaMBB @MiamiOH_BBall @CycloneMBB @HuskerMBB For most it's their schedule up to now Look closely at each remaining teams schedule How many ranked teams has each team played? Arizona-5 Iowa St-2 Miami Ohio-0 Vandy-1 How many ranked team games left each schedule? Arizona-8 (13 total) Iowa St-7 Miami Ohi-0 Vandy-4 Ariz is #1

ONLY 5 UNDEFEATED TEAMS LEFT ‼️ RT IF YOUR SCHOOL IS STILL STANDING 👀

@AdamCarriker94 Love them. Maybe a little red trim on numbers or a skull and cross bones somewhere

What’s your honest opinions of Nebraska’s all black uniforms?

@swmckewonOWH And can someone PLEASE address the elephant in the room at these press conferences..Donavan Raiola. I think we know the only reason he is still here. Has any of his offensive lines been good? They sucked when Martinez was here too! We have talent at that position

@swmckewonOWH Also, Holgersen and Butler need to adjust when things aren't going to whatever gameplan they worked on during the week. Holgersen could have done WAY more running and quick passing, screens, short passes to move the ball. don't need to go downfield on every PLAY!!

@swmckewonOWH I like Rhule, but the guy definitely needs to use THIS past game as an example moving forward. You need to play TOUGH, PHYSICAL, FUNDAMENTAL FOOTBALL LIKE MINNESOTA DID. It doesn't take a 30 million rosters to win games in the Big Ten.

@treywallace Be careful what you wish for. I'm a life long Nebraska fan.We've had winning coaches who were fired because they lose a few games, and then hire losers! I said Paul Cryst should have never been fired from Wisconsin,and now look at them! Winning programs always take it for granted

Penn State fans are waiving goodbye to James Franklin and flipping the bird, as Northwestern defeats the Nittany Lions. A massive ‘Fire Franklin’ chant fills the stadium as the Wildcats take a knee WOW

Please don't leave us Coach!!!! GBR!@CoachMattRhule

@Anthony_Russo97 He's giving me Bo Pelini vibes....

Dabo Swinney has become a national embarrassment. Lectured everyone how he didn’t need the portal. How he’s been a winner. Now he’s the biggest loser in college football. Down 24-7 to Syracuse at home. Firing him has to be on the table for Clemson

@CBSSportsCFB @UMichFootball @JennyDell_ Class Act. I respect class act athletes. This is is how mature folks are...Gained a Nebraska fan here.

"Had an amazing game of course. Just be great." @UMichFootball's freshman phenom Bryce Underwood to our @JennyDell_ on what he said to Dylan Raiola

@AdamCarriker94 I’m a 54 year old Gen Xer who has seen a lot since I got into Nebraska football as 8 year old in 1978 It’s the first game .Here’s the deal: -Cincinnati MAY be good this year -Nebraska is not playoff material, yet. -season comes down to three home games. Michigan. USC. And Iowa.

How do you feel right now Husker fans?!
