We talk: Why Dylan Raiola might not be the best fantasy pick The sneaky transfer WR with top-5 SEC grades 👀 Who’s got something to prove: Rocco Spindler, MJ Sherman, Marques Watson-Trent The under-the-radar Huskers that could win this league And which pick was straight-up “a bet” It’s fun, it’s nerdy, it’s opinionated—it’s everything you love about Big Red Junkies. 👇 Drop your top 5 Husker fantasy picks in the comments!

    Nebraska’s $1 Billion Mistake? | Stadium Debate
    2025/07/19
    Should Nebraska spend nearly a BILLION dollars renovating Memorial Stadium—or just build a brand new one? The Big Red Junkies aren’t pulling punches in this episode. BJ, Jed, and Matt dive headfirst into the latest stadium update chaos, breaking down Troy Dannen's comments, the ghost of Trev Alberts' Texas A&M disaster, and the absurd price tag now rumored to be as high as $700 million to $1 billion. And for what—lipstick on a 100-year-old pig? The guys argue hard for starting fresh: a new stadium across from Pinnacle Bank Arena, with modern amenities that reflect where college football is headed—not stuck in 1923. They also tackle:Why nostalgia shouldn’t block progressThe fake comparison to billion-dollar NFL stadiumsThe hidden cost of "piecemeal" upgrades over timeGrass field update (spoiler: it’s dead)The quiet crumbling of the NCAA's power structureAnd yeah… they want cornstalks in the end zones too.

  • Why Nebraska’s 2026 Recruiting Class Is TINY (And That’s Okay)

    Why Nebraska’s 2026 Recruiting Class Is TINY (And That’s Okay)
    2025/07/04
    The Huskers have just 12 commits for 2026. Is Matt Rhule asleep at the wheel—or five steps ahead of the game? In this episode of the Big Red Junkies, BJ, Jed, and Matt dive into what looks like a shockingly small recruiting class for Nebraska Football in 2026. But don’t panic. The crew breaks down why this shift might be more about strategy than desperation. We hit on: Why the class might stay under 16 total commits Whether roster limits or a full cupboard of young talent is driving the small size How Matt Rhule is killing it at retaining players (no mass exodus like other programs) The new reality of recruiting through the transfer portal Why events like Nebraska’s Adidas 7-on-7 tournament are low-key recruiting gold How long-term relationship building (like with Williams Nwaneri) is reshaping Husker targets What the staff gets right that past regimes never did—adaptation and branding And we couldn’t help but rant about the flood of Ohio State, Oregon, and Texas gear in Omaha. Husker Nation’s youth movement needs a damn spark—and Rhule might be the one to reignite it. 👉 What do YOU think about the direction of this 2026 class? Is Rhule playing chess while everyone else plays checkers?

  • DEBATING / RANKING | Husker Head Coaches since T.O.

    DEBATING / RANKING | Husker Head Coaches since T.O.
    2025/06/26
    We can all agree, Nebraska Football hasn't been the same since T.O. left, nearly 3 decades ago. It started alright with Frank Solich, but Bill Callahan, Bo Pelini, Mike Riley and Scott Frost drove our proud and once dominant program into near oblivion. The Jury is still out on Matt Rhule, but things are looking more positive than they have since the 90's.
