Corn Nation Overreaction: Husker Football is Going Bowling Following 44-25 Win over Wisconsin

Corn Nation: for Nebraska Cornhuskers fans

This week on the premier reaction podcast/live show out there, the Corn Nation Overreaction, Greg, Hoss, and Jake will break down Nebraska’s sixth win of the season, the 44-25 victory over the Wisconsin Badgers.

The Huskers are bowl-eligible for the first time since 2016 and toppled Wiscy for the first time since September 2012. And it happened in Matt Rhule’s second year, Dylan Raiola’s eleventh game, and Dana Holgorsen’s second game.

While the two teams traded scores early (we see you and we appreciate you, Heinrich Haarberg), Nebraska never trailed and looked in control the entire game.

Emmett Johnson became the Huskers’ first 100-yard rusher of the season. Raiola threw for almost 300 yards, and the defense was good enough to beat the Badgers to the Bowl Game (context: Wisconsin is also seeking their sixth win of the season).

What did the guys think of the game and how much confidence did yesterday’s contest inspire heading to Iowa City next week?
