Is there an entitlement issue with Nebraska Football? Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

The Athletic’s Mitch Sherman wrote yesterday that Nebraska’s no-show vs. Minnesota could be a sign of a deeper problem of entitlement in the program leading to over-confidence, less aggression, and unnecessary distraction

Sherman thinks it’s a psychology issue---and this type of thinking is not new for Nebraska----are they incapable of having a full season of motivation and purpose without having the clunkers they throw out?

Nebraska announced a concert for next year at Memorial Stadium that The Stool wasn’t entirely familiar with…are we that out of touch or is this just bizarre? Oct 23, 2025

Show notes

UNL announced yesterday that Cross Canadian Ragweed and Turnpike Troubadours will play on Saturday, August 22nd, 2026 at Memorial Stadium, a week before the football season begins

Apparently this exact same concert sold out 4 straight days in Stillwater and also did well at Colorado State and Baylor, so there’s been some success in stadium capacities…is the Stool way off on this or is this odd to the Breakers as well?

One national writer blames Nebraska’s embarrassing sack numbers on Dylan Raiola more than the offensive line Oct 22, 2025

Show notes

CBS Sports’ Tom Fornelli has expressed many times this year that he’s “annoyed” by Raiola---because he doesn’t think he’s a fundamentally sound player and is wasting having one the most talented arms in the country

Fornelli writes that some of the sacks he takes are products of his desire to make a play happen off-script; and also, instead of moving up in the pocket, he moves backwards or tries to roll to his left/right, only to end up in the arms of a defender

Sean Callahan (Husker Online) Oct 22, 2025

Show notes

The Stool has labeled Northwestern as a rare “must win” for Nebraska---mostly to avoid what happened last year with 4 straight losses after a 5-1 start---is Sean joining us in that label of this game?

Nebraska surrendered 9 sacks to a team that had failed to record a sack the previous 2 weeks…what makes you think anything will change for the better with the o-line going forward?

Matt Rhule was critical of the whole team in Monday’s press conference, calling out coaches and some players…any issue with that?

Garth Glissman (SEC Associate Commissioner) Oct 22, 2025

Show notes

The SEC doesn’t appear to have a dominant team like many years past, but they do have an incredible story in Vanderbilt (ranked 10th in the country)….how do you assess the work that Clark Lea has done with that program?

There’s a lot of positive things from the SEC this year but also some confusion with Arch Manning and Texas…how surprising has their lack of offense been to you?

Since we last had Garth on, there was a MAJOR move in SEC hoops with the retirement of Bruce Pearl at Auburn…did you see that coming and how much does that impact the conference?
