Monday Sep 07, 2020
Monday Sep 07, 2020
Where there is smoke, is there fire? We are hearing a lot of rumor of the Big 10 Conference reversing course and could possibly start the season in October. That's great news for college football fans as the Big 12 is scheduled to start next weekend and the ACC and SEC soon after that.
In this episode of the Husker Doc Talk Podcast presented by the Rimington Trophy, Dr. Rob Zatechka and Travis Justice discuss the possibility of getting the season started and what is needed right now to make it happen.
Also, Desmond Howard has "unblocked" Dr. Rob from Twitter, but now Dr. Rob is getting a different kind of block, this time from the Grand Island Public Schools.

We tackle the budget cuts at Nebraska and what sports if any could be on the chopping block. For your entertainment, check out this SEC short that was released last week, it's hilarious and on point!

Great news, The Rimington Trophy has signed on for another year to be the presenting sponsor of this podcast. Thank you to Dave Rimington and the Boomer Esiason Foundation for the support, maybe, we will say fewer F-bombs!
