Aurich defends blitz call; Holgorsen addresses offensive ‘pressing’

LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) - Nebraska defensive coordinator Rob Aurich rattled off multiple factors that supported the Huskers’ decision to call a corner blitz in a key moment against Washington. Cornerback Andrew Marshall, the team’s best coverage defender, came off the edge and rushed Huskies quarterback Demond Williams Jr. Williams avoided the pressure and completed a first-down pass to Chris Lawson along the sideline. Two plays later, the Huskies had their first lead of the game with 1:30 remaining.

Matt Rhule claims 10-year-old daughter was verbally accosted by fan following loss to Washington

After a strong 5-0 start to the season, Nebraska‘s 2026 campaign has gone completely off the rails. The Cornhuskers fell just short of upsetting No. 7 Indiana on Oct. 10, and that 20-17 loss has now spiraled into a three-game losing streak. Nebraska lost to Oregon 17-14 on Oct. 17 and returned to the field on Saturday against Washington, where the Huskers were defeated 17-10. In all three of those losses, Nebraska held a lead late in the fourth quarter. It’s safe to say fan frustrations in Lincoln have officially boiled over, and that came to a head on Saturday following the loss to the Huskie...

Hail Varsity Historical: Nebraska Football Ends Frank Solich’s First Regular Season With Ninth Win

Credit kicker Kris Brown and the defense for Nebraska football’s 16-14 victory against Colorado on a 66-degree afternoon at Memorial Stadium, Friday, Nov. 27, 1998. “As you look at other kickers, they contribute in one or two ways, but Kris has been outstanding in PATs, field goals and kickoffs,” Coach Frank Solich said. “Today, his kickoffs were very good and that took away a very big part of field position for Colorado. He’s been able to do that consistently.

HUSKERS Halftime Check-In: Blackshirts Look Good, Sloppy on the O-Side: NEBRASKA 7 Washington 3

It wasn't the most crisp effort on the offensive side of the ball for the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the 1st half. The short version is that Anthony Colandrea, fresh off a new deal to return for the 2027 season, quickly recovered from a pair of brutal interceptions to lead a 95-yard drive which he capped by dropping a dime in the right corner of the the end zone to junior Carter Nelson. Nelson managed to separate from his coverage for the 2nd receiving touchdown of his career and the only such score for either team in a first half of punts and, in Nebraska's case, picks.
