THE RED ZONE BLITZ

The Huskers stagger into Black Friday searching for clarity after a brutal night in Happy Valley. Iowa arrives built to exploit every Nebraska weakness, but the Profizer sees a sliver of hope in the cold November wind. Match Iowa’s intensity, be special on special teams, and let the Blackshirts rise once more. Three steps. One rivalry. One chance. Nebraska vs. Iowa.

Nebraska heads into a pivotal showdown with Penn State after a composed win at UCLA and a much-needed bye week. TJ Lateef continues to grow, EJ keeps proving he’s one of the nation’s best backs, and the Blackshirts look to steady themselves against a desperate Nittany Lion team fighting for bowl eligibility. Happy Valley won’t be forgiving, but the path to victory is clear—if the Huskers can execute.

After a heartbreaking blackout loss and the season-ending injury to Raiola, the Huskers look to rebound in Pasadena. The Profizer reshuffles the tarot deck to find a new path to victory. Can freshman TJ Lateef rise to the moment? Can the Blackshirts contain Nico Iamaleava? Believe. Nebraska vs UCLA is more than a matchup — it’s a test of heart, healing, and Husker pride.

October revealed both progress and ghosts for Nebraska football. Now comes USC under the Memorial Stadium lights. The Profizer sees visions of grit, ghosts, and gridiron fate as the Huskers face their biggest test yet. Can they finally exorcise the one-score curse, or will the Trojans ride home victorious?

Each season feels like déjà vu for Nebraska — new faces, same collapse. After getting steamrolled by Minnesota, the Huskers must regroup fast as Northwestern comes to town. The Profizer sees only one cure: fix the sacks, start fast, and let the Blackshirts raise hell. It’s time to punch back, Husker Nation. Prediction: Nebraska 28, Northwestern 17.

One-score heartbreaks have haunted Nebraska for years, but something’s shifting in Lincoln. The Profizer feels it in his plums—this Husker team is learning how to win. As Nebraska heads to Minneapolis, can they finally pop PJ Fleck’s boat and prove the curse is broken? The tarot’s been read, the sage is burning, and the Profizer’s calling it: Huskers 40, Minnesota 20.

The Profizer once again peers into the tarot deck and sees a hard-fought path ahead. After surviving an offensive train wreck against Michigan State, Nebraska looks to steady the ship in College Park. To win, the Huskers must keep it clean, stay special on special teams, and feed the Great Dane. The stars have spoken—Nebraska 33, Maryland 20.

The Profizer shakes off the Michigan sting and looks ahead: it’s time to overwhelm the Spartans. Contain QB Aidan Chiles, let Raiola cook against one of the nation’s weakest pass defenses, and avoid a hangover loss. The battle plan is clear — keep the season on track and set up a YUGE October. Prediction: Huskers 38, MSU 17.

Nebraska’s tune-ups are over—now it’s time to cage the Wolverines. The Profizer’s cards say the keys are clear: trap Bryce Underwood in the pocket, win the trenches like it’s Big Ten warfare, and keep cool in the big moment. Husker Nation hasn’t seen a ranked home win since 2016…but the stars are aligning. Prediction: Nebraska 30 – Michigan 21. GO BIG RED!
