Minnie Hunt opens “Monday Night Therapy” with Fred Sacco and Fred's dog Willie as the crew gears up for Nebraska's final game of 2025, the Las Vegas Bowl against Utah. The mood is a mix of relief and cautious optimism: as fans, they feel the team is “limping across the finish line,” but they also see the bowl as the start of next season—extra practices, player evaluations, and a chance for new coaches to get real film on players. They discuss why Nebraska might have an edge: Utah's opt-outs and injuries (especially in the trenches) could matter, and Nebraska's own absences feel less damaging. They're excited to finally see backup running backs, a faster tempo, and the “X-factor” of a simplified approach under new staff influence. They also recap bowl-week events in Vegas and laugh about Matt Rhule's hat-backwards “gimmick” and social-media images. The conversation veers into Michigan hiring Kyle Whittingham and fanbase “self-soothing,” before returning to Nebraska's mindset: as underdogs with nothing to lose, the Huskers should play freer. They close by reading fan score predictions, joking around with Greg, and setting expectations simply: just look decent—and enjoy the trip.

Evan Bland from the Omaha World-Herald stops by to give his analysis of the Raiola era. Evan also tells the guys what NU can learn from the Las Vegas Bowl and how the Huskers should prioritize certain positions in the transfer portal. Husker Volleyball suffered a crushing 5-set loss in the Elite 8 to Texas A&M, their only loss of the 2025 season. Cole & Nate say how they'll remember this team, and Evan reports on the incredible atmosphere in the Devaney Center. Nebraska men's basketball is ranked #15 after their buzzer-beating road win over Illinois. The team will play a couple cupcakes next before hosting Michigan State on January 2. The guys marvel at how Hoiberg built this roster on development and everyone knowing their role. Husker women are also 11-0 and nationally ranked, and will see USC on December 29. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and GBR!

The stream finally goes live to Matt Rhule's presser and we talked about it.

Matt Rhule said a lot of things last night. Or, did he?

-Dannen spoke on Sports Nightly on Tuesday and mentioned when Matt Rhule said that Nebraska's roster needed $25-30 million to contend, and then he signed his contract extension a few weeks later and those comments were done on money -Dannen said the university has fully pledged its resources to football but the other programs will also benefit from it---and he even said “whether its $25 or $30 million, $22 to $50 million, we can compete” because of reallocations approved by the university president….are we reading this wrong or does it sound like they are taking away any excuses?  Show Sponsored by SANDHILLS GLOBALOur Sponsors:* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/EARLYBREAK* Check out Infinite Epigenetics: https://infiniteepigenetics.com/EARLYBREAK* Check out Washington Red Raspberries: https://redrazz.orgAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
