Three games into Dylan Raiola's Nebraska football career, the days of managing expectations are over. Coach Matt Rhule talked on Tuesday to Rich Eisen about Raiola, saying that the Nebraska freshman could rank some day as one of the best players on the planet.

Too much, too soon for Raiola? Not if his early production and maturity is an indicator. Connor and Mitch go deeper on the Raiola topic and assess the vibe among Husker Nation as Illinois prepares to visit Memorial Stadium on Friday night.

Also, huge news on Tuesday that will affect Nebraska fans who fly into Omaha for weekends in the fall. A big night on tap Wednesday at the Devaney Center as No. 2 Stanford visits Nebraska volleyball. And the Nebraska baseball team released its 2025 schedule. It includes a fantastic spring break trip.

Nebraska coach Matt Rhule says that Nebraska is now "the hunted," not "the hunter" after it earned a national ranking and a spot among the darlings of this young season in college football. Is he right, or is this part of the Rhule's plan to get the Huskers' full attention ahead of their Week 4 matchup with Illinois on Friday night at Memorial Stadium?

Connor and Mitch are here on this Tuesday to discuss Rhule's media availability to open the week. The coach talked about the need to keep Nebraska players sharp in pressure situations after three comfortable wins. Big Ten coaches have a group chat. We have some fun with that. And we have updates on the status, short- and long-term, for defensive lineman Riley Van Poppel and offensive lineman Micah Mazzccua.

Non-conference play is over. Nebraska is 3-0 after its 34-3 victory against Northern Iowa on Saturday night at Memorial Stadium. Dylan Raiola continues to star at quarterback as Big Ten play looms this week.

Connor and Mitch are here to analyze Week 3. Raiola and fellow freshmen Carter Nelson and Jacory Barney on offense just keep getting better and more involved. Are they as good as any rookie trio ever to play key roles for the Huskers? What about the defense? Our hosts are not concerned in the wake of Northern Iowa's clock-control game plan, which worked well to keep Nebraska from running away.

Finally, at running back, the Huskers appear to have found their guy in Dante Dowdell. We've got thoughts on what it all means ahead of Illinois' visit to Lincoln on Friday night.
