People treat Colandrea as some kind of unicorn for being able to scramble. Why is that?
Greg kicks off a Thursday-night Five Heart Podcast on Corn Nation's platforms with Fred and Minnie, immediately devolving into the usual chaos: muted mics, jokes, and wardrobe policing. Minnie admits she's still “in mourning” after a rough offseason of losing coaches and players, but the group circles back to the mantra: trust Matt Rhule—even if they wish he'd communicate more. They correct a chat rumor: it's not Dylan Raiola switching positions; it's Dayton Raiola committing to Oregon as a tight end. That sparks banter about the Raiola family, recruiting ties to Polynesian communities, and a brief derail into religion and “what's offensive,” which the crew quickly tries (and fails) to escape. Another running debate follows: can Husker fans “like” other teams? Greg insists you can watch other games, but you can't cheer for anyone else; Minnie argues it's fine to enjoy good football. Eventually, they transition to real Husker news: special teams changes after staff departures, including discussion of former Husker kicker Brett Maher's résumé and why special teams will face intense scrutiny. The conversation turns into a larger gripe about Rhule's fourth-down “metrics” decisions versus taking guaranteed field goals. They briefly touch on Nebraska basketball's recent loss to Illinois, upcoming games, and end by praising longtime broadcaster Kent Pavelka and hoping this season finally rewards him with March success.
We do a little compare and contrast of Nebraska's new QB to the old QB.
Happer and Schaefer look back at Raiola's time at Nebraska.

Dante Moore is coming back to Oregon. What does this mean for Dylan Raiola?
We are less than a week away from the National Championship game, but just because there are only two teams left playing does not mean there is a lack of news coming from the teams that are already in their offseason. In fact, it is quite the opposite as the transfer portal is in full swing, and it is chaotic, as usual. Players are transferring left and right, and two premiere quarterbacks have come off of the board. Sam Leavitt has committed to LSU and Dylan Raiola has committed to Oregon. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss both of these quarterbacks. They give their thoughts on what the pairing of Sam Leavitt and Lane Kiffin could be. They also discuss the shift with Dylan Raiola. There has still been no word, at the time of this taping, if Dante Moore is returning to Oregon. If he does, that would mean Raiola would be sitting behind Moore for a year. The guys talk about what impact this could have on Raiola's future. Then, they look at another quarterback who is potentially off of the board. Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson announced that he is leaving Alabama and entering the NFL draft. However, multiple schools are reportedly offering him lucrative NIL deals to stay in college for another year. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss this decision and how finances affect college athletes differently. Plus, the guys dive into the topic of navigating the NIL "cap". Ross explains the impact that multimedia rights partners have in this situation. They then discuss how revenue sharing, multimedia rights and other NIL funds are used to circumvent the $20 million "cap."Get caught up with all of the transfer portal drama with College Football Enquirer.0:00:00 - Transfer quarterbacks2:55 - Sam Leavitt to LSU10:40 - How money impacts QB transfers15:54 - Dylan Raiola to Oregon24:00 - Will Ty Simpson enter the NFL or transfer?34:30 - Multimedia rights & navigating the "cap" Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Josh and Matt wonder what story for next season they're really latching on to and share their takes on Raiola.
Connor reflects the two year relationship between Dylan Raiola and Nebraska. What were some the things Nebraska could've done better?
In an emergency episode, Sam McKewon and Ben Doody react to the news that Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola plans to transfer. The guys talk about why Raiola is leaving; whether Nebraska could have done anything to keep him; and what the Huskers will be looking for in the portal. Sam also breaks down what the Huskers' offense may look like with TJ Lateef under center, and the guys break down what Nebraska needs out of its defense.
Dylan Raiola will be leaving Nebraska.
We get Mike'l Severe to share his take on the Raiola news.
We determine what happens next for both sides after the Raiola portal news.
Did Nebraska received a worthy return on investment from Raiola?
Connor breaks down the news of Dylan Raiola's intent to enter the transfer portal.
News broke early Saturday afternoon that Raiola was let go from his position by Matt Rhule, and quickly was replaced by Geep Wade from Georgia Tech…who will coach the bowl game as Dana Holgorsen did last year for Nebraska as a late arrivalAlso, Toledo DC Vince Kehres goes from being a target of Nebraska to taking the DC job with Syracuse…hmmm…..Show Sponsored by SANDHILLS GLOBALOur Sponsors:* 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
Most Nebraska fans highly doubt that both Dylan Raiola and TJ Lateef are here next year, but there's a decent chance that at least one of them sticks around…right? If it is Raiola who stays, Rhule says he wants to see him make the jump into the QB we know he can be…can that happen with the current offensive staff and personnel or not?

Lateef only led one Nebraska TD drive but also avoided some sacks---still took 3 in all---but did have a rushing TD. He had 10 carries for 15 yards and a TD; and was 21/37 passing for 187 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs, 3 sacks So…no crippling, back-breaking turnovers…but struggled at times in the passing game. Raiola likely would have taken more than 3 sacks looking at his game history…even the biggest Raiola defenders wouldn't say that game would have looked any different or better than it was…right?

Offense vs Purdue Starts at :57 This podcast starts out telepathically but then Brian's intrusive thoughts got telepathed so it had to stop. Dave introduces the Snack of the Week. Would you rather talk about this game or Dunkaroos? Bryce Underwood - not good in the first half. A fumble on the sideline is usually harmless unless it involves the silliest rule in football. His scrambling was good but you can't build a business in this industry by scrambling, that will get you killed against Ohio State. Too many missed passes, he doesn't really settle in. By the Georgia game, JJ was probably where Bryce is now - many mistakes but you can see the talent. On the flip side, the offensive line had a great game. Purdue loaded the box but Jordan Marshall rushed for 185 yards anyways. You can't tackle him with just one guy, he will emerge from piles. This is the fourth straight game where Sprague has been incredible. Bryson Kuzdzal had some nice runs on the game-sealing drive. Tight ends were fine, more catches by Zack Marshall. There's not a lot of separation between Marshall and Klein. Semaj had way fewer snaps, Goodwin saw more time. You have six 2nd or 3rd year players on this offensive line that can absolutely play in this conference. The future of the offensive line is bright. 2. Defense vs Purdue Starts at 41:43 How do we even feel about the defensive performance? We've seen Purdue all season be an offense that moves the ball down the field but can't score. That happened but it felt bad. Cam Brandt was too far upfield on a couple big run plays. Why are the good defensive ends not on the field for 70% of the snaps that they should be out for? Why are the starters rotating out so much throughout the game? Assuming he's healthy, do you put Jaishawn Barham at DE or LB against Ohio State? Michigan didn't commit to a position for him and it's hurting his play. Way fewer three defensive tackle sets, yay. If your name is going to be "Michael Jackson" you need to go by "Mike". Jyaire Hill got sealed a couple times but was otherwise fine. The endzone DPI was DPI. Metcalf got sucked in during the touchdown. 3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:06:04 Takes hotter than the amount of trouble Jason would get into if he did the Hot Takes voice at a golf tournament where he was during recording. Michigan has not been good at Special Teams Things, why are they running kickoffs out of the middle of the endzone? Another punt that Semaj didn't field that gave up 20 yards. Did Jay Harbaugh have a heat map for punting? We've never had to talk so much about shield punting positioning but now we have to. Clock management at the end of the first half was pretty on-point. Purdue's 4th down decision making was aggressive which you do if you want to try to win the game. Shout out to Michigan fans for feeding energy back into the team in the 4th quarter. The students did the shirtless thing that's become a college football thing. Also shout out to Barry Odom for getting the Purdue bench fired up. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:28:22 Indiana 55, Maryland 10 This is a typical Indiana game these days. Indiana's offense is a machine. The defense is... also a machine?? Every week, Indiana has some weird defensive stat that's historical and worth tracking. Mendoza threw and interception on his first play, the game was wobbly for about a quarter. Ohio State 38, Penn State 14 Briefly competitive in the 2nd quarter. Penn State is the first top five team in the history of college football to lose five straight games. Julian Sayin had 14 yards per attempt. Ohio State finally catches a break and gets an obvious targeting call to not get enforced. Minnesota 23, Michigan State 20 (OT) MSU benches Aidan Chiles for Alessio Milivojevic. The Spartans lose this game despite outgaining Minnesota by about 160 yards. The final two minutes of this game are worth watching. Northwestern QB Aidan Chiles?? Alessio had a better EPA than Chiles any other game this season. USC 21, Nebraska 17 If you like offense, don't look at this game. We are suddenly having feelings about Wink Martindale. Dylan Raiola is done for the season and USC is able to grind out a win. Raiola's backup went 5/7 for 7 yards. Illinois 35, Rutgers 13 A solid victory for Illinois, most of Rutgers' yards are when it was 35-6. Bert: "I put us as good as any 6-3 team out there. That doesn't mean anything." Bowl eligible in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2011. Illinois is the new Wisconsin.

Offense vs Michigan State Starts at 1:05 They watch games in Craig's garage but to be clear it's a very nice garage. This game means different things based on if you're from Michigan or not. This game is like "Jerry Springer: the Rivalry". Michigan went back to the 2023 "we can just run the ball and get away with a win" gameplan. 'Road Bryce' seems to be a real thing. Every time they show Jonathan Smith he looks like he doesn't want to be there. Should there be an ingrained hatred of Michigan if you're going to be the head coach at Michigan State? Bryce doesn't have a good game but both backs go for over 100 yards. Bryce looked great last week, what happened? Or is this just the case of a true freshman in a road environment again? Sprague and Guarnera had great games, El-Hadi maybe not so much? The pieces for the 2026 offensive line may already be in place. Let's talk about Semaj... We're mostly out on Semaj, do you bench him now for his own good? Jordan Marshall: runs through guys and runs through guys. The Crippen high snap was unfortunate. Can anyone play fullback better than Max Bredeson? [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Defense vs Michigan State Starts at 59:04 We've been down on Wink but this was a good game for the defense. You can't take much on this based on the performance of the opposition. Chiles was awful in a vacuum, Michigan was not forcing his problems. Hillman had a really good game, he's been given a lot of criticism but this was a chaotically good game. Jimmy Rolder was a little bit of everywhere, he's a playmaker now. Derrick Moore is pretty good, he should start! Everything around the defensive tackle position is fine but we're used to a defense designed around great defensive tackles. Defensive backs should have as equal right to the ball as wide receivers. 3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:26:57 Takes hotter than the bacteria and/or virus that really got up in Brian's business this week. Glue the hat and pants on, Michigan State's not getting the trophy back. Some of us don't think that guy was off-sides... or was he? The hold on Crippen is not even remotely a hold. If that's a hold then we need to talk about Jaishawn Barham. Why are we accepting a fair catch on the 20?? We are out on J.B. Brown as special teams coordinator. Hollenbeck had a nice game at least. Semaj gets run over by Goodwin?! Should they have taken a shot in the endzone before the end of the half? 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:51:10 Rutgers 27, Purdue 24 The Purdue QB catches his own pass and spectacularly hands the game over to Rutgers in dramatic fashion. Rutgers gets yards, not points. Purdue wins a game they probably shouldn't have. This game kind of saved Rutgers' season, they could potentially compete with Penn State for bowl eligibility. Nebraska 28, Northwestern 21 Northwestern outgains Nebraska and Dylan Raiola was un-inspiring. That said, Raiola was still the better QB. Northwestern always seems to find the worst QB in the portal. Nebraska seems to think they can solve their offensive line problems with the portal but they can't. Indiana 56, UCLA 6 There was a pick-six a minute into the game and that's all she wrote. Last year Indiana was a fun story, this year THEY'RE SCARY. Washington 42, Illinois 25 Road Washington is a thing. The worst roughing the passer call we've ever seen is in this game. Could Oregon be a play-in for a playoff spot for Washington?? Oregon 21, Wisconsin 7 Wisconsin doesn't get shut out three games in a row! All things considered, the Wisconsin defense is playing their hearts out. Iowa 41, Minnesota 3 Iowa had 274 total yards. How do you get 41 points on 274 total yards? It's Iowa. We need a Floyd of Rosedale pose on touchdowns in this game. Playoff Iowa??? No, that's silly.

Defense vs USC Starts at 1:00 Seth reads off an ominous message from Brian from earlier last week. USC's success rate was typical of a good offense against a MAC team. This was the dumbest game plan we've ever seen a Michigan defensive coordinator execute. Wink Martindale coaches like he looks down on college and Brian is officially done with him. Is Wink just Charlie Weis?? What happened between The Meeting from last year and this year? Mike McDonald made a lot of the same mistakes in his first four games but he was able to adjust to what was around him, Wink can't change. Would things be better if they fired Wink Martindale and just made Rod Moore the defensive coordinator? His answer to the question "are you spilling or setting the edge" was "it depends on the playcall" which raises a red flag. How much actual player development is being done? They're playing their subs in the first quarter, Brandt had more snaps than Derrick Moore. USC was running a lot of really easy stuff but they may legitimately be one of the best offenses in the country. Why are they subbing so much against such a good offense? His buyout is head coach money to be one of the worst defensive coordinators in the Big Ten. It's not just younger guys making mistakes, it's older guys, too. At some point you gotta think "maybe this is a tunnel screen?" USC had a 66% standard downs success rate. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Offense vs USC Starts at 40:07 There was a limited number of drives in part because USC ran the clock a lot. Bryce Underwood just wasn't quite up for it in this one. His deep passes were too flat but he had some good moments too. Denard talked about how in big games we was so amped that he couldn't hit his targets, maybe Bryce is still a little nervous in big games. USC's nickel is nicknamed "the angry giraffe" because he's so tall. Andrew Marsh is getting better rapidly and is becoming the next best option #2, maybe that's why the tight ends got fewer targets. The pieces of a solid offense are there, they're still developing. The tackles weren't getting whipped consistently. Despite the issues, Bryce is developing as expected for a freshman, he has a lot of added pressure when the defense can't stop the opposing offense. Based on limited snaps of Jadyn Davis, maybe you can't run Bryce as much to risk injury. El-Hadi was back and looked fine. 3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:04:56 Takes hotter than the eternal flame in the Los Angeles Coliseum (which does get put out at the conclusion of the game). The game might've been going a bit fast which caused the false starts. The OPI was a bad call. Michigan drew a holding call!! A lot of extracurriculars went uncalled. Hollenbeck's punting started promising but eventually resulted in a 28 yarder. Do you punt or try for a 60 yard field goal? That two point conversion is apparently the thing you do now? The USC cheerleaders were on the field when Michigan was running a play! 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 128:41 NOTE: This was recorded just before James Franklin was fired. Indiana 30, Oregon 20 This was a defensive masterclass from Indiana. This is how 2023 Michigan would've beaten Oregon. How the hell does Indiana have one of the best defenses in America?? This was really the first game all year where Dante Moore was under pressure and didn't seem to know what to do. Indiana has signs of... a championship winning team?! Penn State 21, Northwestern 22 Drew Allar is out for the season. This wasn't a fluke, Northwestern just outperformed Penn State. Linebacker U has completely fallen apart and Jim Knowles doesn't seem to know how to be aggressive with this roster. Will... Penn State win a Big Ten game?? James Franklin was fired immediately after this recording so there's still speculation on what to do with this situation. The situation at Penn State just seems toxic all around. UCLA 38, Michigan State 13 Michigan State scores on their first drive and then that's all, folks. October UCLA is the opposite of October Maryland. Michigan State can't move on from John Smith for stability reasons... can they? What do the Spartans do well? What Big Ten teams would swap their QB with Aidan Chiles? Nebraska 34, Maryland 31 Nebraska had control of this game down-to-down but Dylan Raiola threw three interceptions. October Maryland can't get out of their way again. Raiola isn't quite there yet but has a shot at it next year. Ohio State 34, Illinois 16 Ohio State was never really threatened. Illinois outgains Ohio State 295 to 275 but three of Ohio State's first four drives started in Illinois territory. Iowa 37, Wisconsin 0 Sim to basketball season. This wasn't even an Iowa offensive explosion, Wisconsin threw two interceptions and lost a fumble. You can't fire Fickell but you also can't afford not to? Washington 38, Rutgers 19 A fun first half but Washington blows the doors open in the second half. Total yards were 590 to 493. Rutgers is 0-3 in the Big Ten but had a halftime lead in each of those games. Purdue 20, Minnesota 27 Minnesota is outrushed 253 to 30 rushing yards but Purdue throws three interceptions and loses a fumble. If you rewatch this game, we will have to call 911.
