About this listen

This episode of Monday Night Therapy opens with Minnie Hunt officially announcing Fred Sacco as her co-host. With just ten days left before Nebraska’s season opener against Cincinnati at Arrowhead Stadium, the hosts describe the wait as feeling like the last week of school. Fall camp is finished, and recent press conferences from coaches and players have generated optimism. The conversation shifts to Dylan Raiola’s leadership, his polished demeanor in interviews, and excitement about his younger brother’s high school success. Fans debate Nebraska’s defensive depth, particularly on the line and in the secondary, while praising techniques like the “club and rip” move.

The hosts highlight new and emerging players such as Dasan McCullough, Jameer Khan, and Jordan Ochoa, while stressing academics as a foundation beyond football. They discuss tackling fundamentals, Big Ten officiating, and the challenges of targeting rules. There’s also lighthearted banter about uniforms, wigs, and fan traditions, including black alternate jerseys and Australian punter Archie Wilson’s family visiting from abroad.

Looking ahead, Minnie predicts Nebraska will score in the 40s against Cincinnati, while Fred remains cautious but optimistic. The show closes with excitement for game day, reminders about upcoming prediction shows, and the familiar rallying cry: Go Big Red!
