Did disappearing rivalries contribute to the downfall of Nebraska football?

from Locked On Nebraska - Daily Podcast on the Nebraska Cornhuskers · host Locked On Podcast Network

We’ve got a packed mailbag on this final Friday of June. Thanks to our loyal listeners and viewers for bringing us the questions. In this episode, we talk more about the new Nebraska uniforms. What is Adidas getting out of this deal? Might the lack of traditional rivalries be contributing to Nebraska’s struggles as a program?  If other teams got to pick their perfect conferences, who would take Nebraska as a rival? Will TJ Lateef stick around for another year if he’s not the starting quarterback? Why isn’t Tommie Frazier more revered by college football fans? How will Rob Aurich’s defense use the linebackers? We pick sporting events to attend if we were time travelers. And finally, another tribute to George Darlington. Join us.  Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
