In this episode of Monday Night Therapy, host Minnie Hunt welcomes longtime Husker fan Fred for a lively discussion on Nebraska football. Fred shows off his vintage 2000 Husker Adidas polo as the duo dives into Nebraska’s recent recruiting wins, including a big commitment from cornerback Danny Odom. They note the team’s class ranking improvement from No. 74 to No. 61 nationally, with potential to break into the top 25.

Minnie and Fred preview the first three games of the season—Cincinnati, Akron, and Houston Christian—debating whether they count as “cupcake” games. They agree Houston Christian is the weakest of the three, while Cincinnati, despite a 5–7 season and recent practice facility upgrades, presents the biggest challenge, especially with former Indiana QB Brendan Sorsby under center and a standout defensive tackle nicknamed “The Godfather.”

The episode also features lively banter with the chat, special guest appearances from Husker fans, predictions of Nebraska wins over Michigan and USC, and plenty of humor—including jabs at P.J. Fleck’s wardrobe, references to “skinny fat” players, and wine pairings for night games.

Overall, the tone is optimistic yet grounded, with Fred and Minnie agreeing: this Nebraska team looks ready to take a step forward. Go Big Red!
