Join hosts Jake Sorensen and Steve Sipple of the Lincoln Journal Star for our morning Husker sports show.
The Early Break podcast is a must-listen for any Nebraska football fan or sports enthusiast. Hosted by Jake Sorensen, Mike Sautter, and Bill Busch, the show offers a unique blend of knowledge, humor, and insight that keeps listeners engaged from start to finish. These three guys have an incredible chemistry and it's clear that they have been working together for a long time. Their banter is hilarious, often making me laugh out loud during each episode. But don't mistake their humor for lack of professionalism - they are extremely knowledgeable and informative about all things Nebraska football.
One of the best aspects of The Early Break is the in-depth coverage of Husker football. With their years of experience covering the team, Jake and Sip provide valuable insights into the program and college football as a whole. They offer behind-the-scenes stories from Bill Busch's time around the program, which add a fascinating layer to their discussions. The guests on the show are also well-informed and provide valuable perspectives on upcoming opponents and what's happening inside the program.
However, there are a few aspects of the podcast that could be improved upon. Some listeners have expressed frustration with missing certain segments due to their schedule or location limitations. It would be helpful if there was a way to number the segments so that listeners can easily find where they left off or skip to specific topics if needed.
In conclusion, The Early Break podcast is an outstanding source of information and entertainment for Husker football fans. Jake Sorensen, Mike Sautter, and Bill Busch make for an unbeatable trio with their knowledge, banter, and chemistry. While there may be some minor improvements that could be made regarding segment organization, overall this podcast is top-notch and should not be missed by any Nebraska football enthusiast.

No player is bigger than the program—Dylan Raiola is of course a 5-star QB with lots of people following him…but he has struggles in areas of scrambling, extending plays…etc. If TJ Lateef wins the final 3-4 games..it's awkward. Don't you want that?

It's not great times in non-conference scheduling in college football, as we've seen future games between Power 4 teams scrapped for games against lesser foes---including Nebraska getting out of the Tennessee series Yesterday, Notre Dame and Auburn announced a home-and-home series in 2027 and 2028…the first time the programs will have ever played each other. Will this be an outlier or will schools get back to having good matchups again?

Dana Holgorsen addressed media Tuesday and said that Nebraska is “a run first team now, I guess”…and they'd have good reason to considering Emmett Johnson being 2nd in the country in rush yards with 1,002 yards on the year The o-line has been hounded all season for pass protection---and that conversation will be really interesting if TJ Lateef is able to avoid sacks at the rate that Dylan Raiola took them---but how much can you really bash Donovan Raiola and his group for the success of Johnson, especially since he looks so much better than last year?

We all know that preseason rankings are something to be mocked with how much things change through the year---but even with that, Penn State has done something so bad that it's never happened before Penn State's 3-5 record through 8 games is the worst EVER ranking for a team that started No. 1 or No. 2 preseason. It's too bad for them that Florida State wasn't ranked that high last year because their 2-10 record would have made this a non-story Our Sponsors:* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.com* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/EARLYBREAK* Check out Infinite Epigenetics: https://infiniteepigenetics.com/EARLYBREAK* Check out Uncommon Goods: https://uncommongoods.com/EARLYBREAK* Check out Washington Red Raspberries: https://redrazz.orgAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

TJ Lateef is the QB for Nebraska as they attempt to get past the November woes that have plagued them for years…how different do you expect the offense to look under his guidance? Some people think that the lack of Dylan Raiola will hurt Emmett Johnson's chances at big numbers…doesn't Lateef's running ability make Emmett more dangerous though? How much does Raiola's injury change your expectations or goals for what this team should get to in win total?
