This week on the Overreaction Show, Greg, Hoss, and Jake will discuss and break down Saturday’s 28-21 win over the Northwestern Wildcats.
As has been the Huskers’ modus operandi in conference play, it was not a pretty game. It was, in fact, ugly. But as we have also seen most of this season (the exception being Minnesota, really), there were glimpses of some really stellar individual performances.

Kenneth Williams had a return that would have had Lyell Bremser on his feet. Emmett Johnson continued to showcase his abilities. And the defense did just enough to help secure Nebraska’s second-straight bowl-eligible season.
The Huskers are 6-2. They are 3-2 in conference play and begin their Pac 12 swing next week with the USC Trojans at home followed by a trip to the Rose Bowl to face UCLA. If we’ve learned anything from the Big Ten in 2025 it’s that anything is possible.
