How hard is it to keep your edge once you’ve reached the pinnacle of success in sports? Jan 31, 2023

Show notes

-Yesterday, Chiefs legendary punt/kick returner Dante Hall said he was at the AFC Championship game and said that the atmosphere was more dead than he thought it would be, and that maybe fans in KC are just used to being there, after 5 straight seasons of title game appearances

-Coach Busch has coached under some of the best coaches to ever do it, and it hasn’t seemed to phase them..but how? Look at the Rams this year under Sean McVay. They won a championship last year and yes, there were injuries, but they had a miserable season this year, and people are wondering if McVay still has the edge to be great

-How do you keep the fire once you finally get over the hump?

Is there any truth to the paranoia that NFL games might actually be rigged? Jan 31, 2023

Show notes

-More and more people came out yesterday on social media with the thought that the Chiefs were the benefactor of some very helpful calls by the refs…is it paranoia/conspiracy theory or somewhat true?

-Also, Coach Busch noticed something about the Chiefs’ pass rush from Sunday that caught his eye…

Terrance Knighton and Ed Foley met with the media yesterday ahead of Wednesday’s Signing Day…what’s their confidence level at with how things are going? Jan 31, 2023

Show notes

-Knighton, Nebraska’s new DL coach, said that the Huskers’ new 3-3-5 approach will be a lot for opponents, and will make the opponents lose sleep over where Nebraska is lined up. How’s that for Kool-Aid?

-Knighton also mentioned there’s a high level of urgency which there always is under Matt Rhule…curious what schools that wouldn’t be the case at

-And Ed Foley says Nebraska wants to block punts and get at least 10 yards per punt return (as a goal)…Coach Busch knows more about special teams than most anyone in the area…why is that easier said than done?

Nebraska sent nearly the entire staff to go visit Dylan Raiola…has Coach Busch ever been a part of anything like that? / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe) Jan 30, 2023

Show notes

-We know that Coach Busch was the main reason why LSU got Joe Burrow and the rest is history with that. But that wasn’t anything like THIS for recruiting…right?

-Have you seen this before where an entire staff goes to visit a kid that was not within driving distance?

Why is it so difficult for most college head coaches to succeed in the NFL when they make the leap? Jan 30, 2023

Show notes

-As Nebraska fans prepare for the Matt Rhule era and try to forget about his time with the Panthers, it’s something you simply can’t ignore. Why did it go so badly for him, and why is that often the case?

-2 of the greatest college coaches ever failed in the NFL: Urban Meyer and Nick Saban. If Rhule succeeds at Nebraska, it’s another story of a coach who went from college to the NFL and back to college and succeeded

-Also, Coach Busch’s thoughts on camera in locker rooms and in team meetings…

The Sam Hoiberg Show was impressive on Saturday, but Nebrasketball still got blown out on the road Jan 30, 2023

Show notes

-Sam Hoiberg came off the bench and scored 15 points, surprising pretty much everyone in Nebraska, but more issues with rebounding and free throws hurt the Huskers as they have been, and Maryland came away with an 82-63 win on Saturday

-Nebraska is now 10-12 overall and 3-8 in B1G play and going the wrong direction quickly.

The Super Bowl matchup is officially set…did the conference championship games live up to their hype? Jan 30, 2023

Show notes

-Brock Purdy was hurt early in the 1st quarter of 49ers/Eagles in the NFC Championship, leading to backup QB Josh Johnson coming in to the game

-Did the 49ers defense get up to the task of stopping the Eagles offense with injury to Purdy for their own offense?

-Also, Chiefs/Bengals in the AFC Championship….did “Burrowhead” Stadium become a reality or not?
