About this listen

 Everybody’s chirping that Nebraska’s defense is too small, too green, and not ready for Big Ten smash‑mouth. Nah. We’re calling BS—and we brought receipts. We kick off Week Zero with a straight‑up rant about the national narrative and why the spring/summer “offense struggled” headlines never credit a defense that’s actually making strides. Then we dive into Tony White vs. John Butler résumé talk and how fans read that matchup, the “undersized linebackers” debate vs. raw athleticism, and why a faster, smarter, more cohesive front can still bully people when it counts. We also hit on the D‑line coaching shift—speed + power, master one move, play as a unit—and what that means on Saturdays. Plus a quick note on special teams (Archie Wilson and the punt team vibes) and the single‑digit leadership tradition carrying forward. Are we overconfident or dead‑on about this defense? Drop your hottest take below—what’s the ONE spot you’re most confident in on D? #NebraskaFootball #Huskers #HuskerNation #GBR #MattRhule #TonyWhite #BigTen #CollegeFootball #Blackshirts #BigRedJunkies Learn more about your ad choices.
