Ameer Abdullah and Matt Rhule seem to have a very special relationship. When Rhule was holding his first press conference and being introduced as the new head coach he talked about the former Husker and Carolina Panthers running back. Earlier this week, Ameer returned the favor by filming a video talking about how much he respected Rhule.
Hear Ameer 🗣️

The Nebraska Cornhuskers lost another player to the transfer portal, if he officially submits his papers, he would be the sixth Husker to enter the portal since Matt Rhule took over. Brendan Franke announced he was leaving the Huskers. The kickoff specialist will be missed, but a competent coaching staff should be able to find a kicker who can kick field goals and kick off all on his own.

Nick Saban made a fool of himself last night. After USC lost on Friday, some think the door was opened for Alabama. Saban went on TV last night and politicked but good asking the CFP committee to make ‘Bama one of the final four. That appearance has led to more than a few people blasting him.
On ESPN Twitter CFB Show, Saban made the case for Bama getting in the playoff. He talked about Bryce's injury vs. Ark and how he was limited in practice when he came back. He pointed to a 3-0 close to the season. Saban said you have to ask, "How are they playing at present?"

Of course, at some point, there will come a time in the future when Nebraska Cornhuskers coaches might be politicking for a spot in the playoffs, especially when it goes to 12 teams.
