NCAA Basketball: Nebraska at Northwestern David Banks-USA TODAY Sports

Nebraska men’s basketball team lost. Nebraska women’s basketball team lost. Nebraska wrestling team lost.

It was a rough weekend for the Huskers.

Also, tonight is the last day of college football until August 29th, 2020. Enjoy it while you can folks. Hopefully the Tigers win tonight. My money is all on the Tigers pulling off the victory. I think both teams have the opportunity to put on a great show. The athletes that will play tonight are some of the best in the nation and it in all honesty could go either way.

But I believe the Tigers will win. Don’t @ me because you are wrong, dead wrong. There is no way I can see the Tigers not winning the national championship.

Roll ham...
