Monday Night Therapy: Game Preview Houston Christian

Minnie Hunt and co-host Fred Sacco open Monday Night Therapy celebrating Nebraska’s 2–0 start and looking ahead to Houston Christian. They expect a comfortable win, heavy rotations, and valuable reps deep down the depth chart—more like old-school Huskers blowouts, but without running up the score. Chat touches on Houston Christian’s recent rebrand from Houston Baptist, their early-season results, and why this buy game remained on Nebraska’s schedule (including ties to a satellite camp in Houston).

They recap the Akron rout: 41 defenders reportedly played, red-zone miscues were rare and correctable, and the defense looked aggressive. There’s sympathy for punter Archie Wilson not seeing the field, but pride in the shutout. Backup QB TJ Lateef impressed with true mobility; the hosts discuss keeping him engaged in the NIL/transfer era while Dylan remains the starter and future recruits arrive. They praise QB coach Glenn Thomas’s hands-on development alongside Dana Holgorsen’s offensive influence.

Broader themes include Nebraska’s elite fan support (staying to the light show), early kickoff nostalgia, and confidence in the defensive line’s growing rotation under strong coaching. They argue this staff is the best at player development since Tom Osborne, emphasize staying healthy before Michigan, and sign off with community banter and plans for a future “age-18 photo” segment.
