Mike Riley's Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad 2015 Season. Plus, Iowa And Wisconsin Heartbreak: 20-11 | Groin Kick Chronicles
DISCLAIMER: There was an audio issue that shows up in the back half of the podcast where there's a bit of a drop in sound quality. We apologize.
We've reached the top 20 inside the Groin Kick Era of Husker football and things are getting absolutely terrible. Josh runs down games ranked 20-11, including a run of losses from Mike Riley's first season, some brutal losses inside the Big Ten West, and more. Then, Jack joins to dive in a bit deeper and discuss how miserable things have been. And there are still ten games left!
