This week on the Five Heart Podcast, the show opens up with discourse about the 2021 Nebraska Cornhuskers, dubbed the greatest 3-9 team in college football history (and not even by us). Why is this team, in the midst of Scott Frost’s tumultuous tenure, regarded so highly, especially by outsiders?

The offensive line over the course of the last (insert your preferred number here) year has been, well, offensive. But there is renewed vigor with the addition of Geep Wade as the OC Coach this off-season. The assistant who transformed Georgia Tech’s offensive line is now at the helm of Nebraska’s with the hope being that this ragtag bunch of misfits can become the second coming of the Pipeline. We look at the 2026 offensive line, which has size, depth, and for the first time in five years, competent leadership.

Also on the docket, Nebraska’s newest 4-star wide receiver commit is from the highly touted, top-100 player Khalil Taylor. The 2027 class continues to improve, and the future continues to look bright.

Lastly, there’s a new sponsorship deal that Monster Energy has brokered with the Big XII. What’s the monetary benefit for the teams and how will BYU handle the addition of an energy drink patch on its uniforms while Mormons can’t consume caffeine?
