Nebraska football mailbag: How to stay upbeat as a fan in the rough seas?

The Friday mailbag and picks episode is here. Mitch and Connor answer your questions about Nebraska and the transfer portal, coaching movement, Dylan Raiola and the future of the defense. One listener wants to know what others must be thinking: Is homecoming even going to be a thing in the future? Don’t freak out, Nebraska fans. This week (and next week) are all part of the new normal for Matt Rhule and the Huskers. Soon, some good news about the 2025 roster will emerge. Count on it. We’ve also got picks on all of the conference championship games that matter in Week 15, starting with a CFP play-in game in Boise on Friday night – and another one to kick off Saturday in the Big 12. Can Penn State defend the honor of the Big Ten? What happens on Sunday in the playoff selection if Clemson defeats SMU? And where will Nebraska land for its bowl game?
