Fans Forge Nebraska Football’s Mount Rushmore
The Common Fans podcast is back for a third summer series, this time aiming to assemble the ultimate Mount Rushmore of Nebraska football. Over multiple episodes, hosts will break down candidates across quarterbacks, offensive skill players, defenders, special teams, walk-ons, and coaches—then debate cultural impact, leadership, championships, defining moments, and program legacy to pick the four most iconic figures. Guests like Brandon Vogel, Mitch Sherman, Henry Cordes, and others round out the discussions, which promise to mix deep research, analytics, nostalgia, humor, and occasional absurdity. Plus, the crew celebrates the Oak Barn Beef giveaway winner and invites fans to join via YouTube or podcast.
If you’ve ever wondered whether ranking quarterbacks, linebackers, mop-up kickers, and that one legendary waterboy could ever become edge-of-your-seat drama, rejoice. This series treats Husker lore like it’s the Marvel Cinematic Universe—if Tony Stark swapped his arc reactor for a Cornhusker helmet. Expect heated disputes over who truly deserves a face on granite, dramatic slow-motion replays of past touchdowns narrated by disembodied, overly solemn voices, and at least one guest insisting walk-ons are the real all-stars because, hey, they once carried a clipboard. Grab your popcorn (or ribeye) and watch fandom reach fever pitch.
