The Common Fans discuss Nebraska’s roller coaster win over the Spartans.  

  • Nebraska looked like they were going to cruise to victory after opening a 14-0 lead early in the game.
  • After MSU scored 21 unanswered points, the Big Red appeared lost.
  • Huskers come roaring back to take over the game and ultimately win comfortably, 38-27.
  • Breakthrough game for the defense.
  • Special teams comes up huge. 
  • Dylan doesn’t quit.
  • Discussing Nebraska’s offensive identity: do the Huskers need to prioritize pounding the rock more?

Plus, the boys discuss the need to enjoy the win:

  • College football can be too much of a beauty pageant, with fans and pundits focused on margin of victory and individual stats over wins and losses. 
  • Nebraska would have lost this game more often than not over the last ten years, and they turned it into a double digit victory. That’s progress.
  • There’s more parity in the game than ever before, and we should celebrate every W.


Huskers at 4-1 and everything this team wants to accomplish is still out in front of it.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
