Nebraska football and the Big 12 conversation that will never just go away

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

It’s Tuesday at the Locked On Nebraska podcast, and we’re talking about the Big 12. Why?!? Well, because Bill Moos – the former athletic director who wrote a book – uncovered old wounds and revisited the topic. Should Nebraska have jumped at the chance to return to its former league when the window was apparently open five years ago? Connor and Mitch have strong thoughts on this. And we’re here to share them with you.Also, our spring football preview continues with a look at the Nebraska linebackers. Who stands to lead this group in 2026? Can the Huskers improve here, despite losing their top defender from a year ago? Is Vincent Shavers ready to be a star? And how will Rob Aurich mesh his teachings with the work of linebackers coach Rob Dvoracek? We’re also evaluating the opening weekend for Nebraska baseball and peering ahead to Tuesday night as Nebraska basketball visits Iowa in a big game for postseason positioning.Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
