Big Red Banter/October 26, 2026

Nebraska's bye week was supposed to be a chance to reset. Instead, it gave Husker fans even more reasons to be frustrated.

Former Nebraska head coach Scott Frost picked up a massive win over the No. 2 team in the country, Wisconsin and Northwestern are ranked, and Minnesota has beaten two ranked opponents this season. Meanwhile, Nebraska hasn't been ranked in more than a decade.
