The Friday mailbag is full. We start this episode with an assertion that every set of college football rankings released before October qualifies as “too early.” And to take it a step further, Nebraska’s historic streak of losses against ranked foes does not matter. Do you agree? Connor and Mitch discuss.

We’re talking about the single most important hurdle that the Huskers must clear to win a national championship in the next decade. Is it OK to put pineapple on pizza? How bad is the Big Ten baseball tourney format? There’s more in this episode on Millard South QB Jett Thomalla. Are the Nebraska linemen ready to make a contender of the Huskers?

And does the success of various women’s sports in Lincoln add pressure to the high-profile men’s teams? Join us for all the answers and more.
