About this listen

In the summer of 2025, Josh Peterson and Jack Mitchell decided to look back on the Groin Kick Era of Nebraska football, ranking each of the program's 70 losses with a mathematical formula. The Groin Kick Chronicles were born.


Now available in this feed, you can listen back and remember the heartbreak and agony of Husker football, starting with the 2014 Holiday Bowl loss to the USC Trojans and ending with the 2024 defeat to the Iowa Hawkeyes.


The Groin Kick Chronicles are an I-80 Club original podcast.
