Nebraska quarterback's impressive throw goes viral
Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola went viral on Saturday afternoon after showing off his accuracy from an impressive distance during the Husker Games. The sophomore threw a football through a basketball hoop from midfield.
Last season, Raiola played in all 13 games for the Cornhuskers. He threw for 2,819 yards, 13 touchdowns and 11 interceptions while leading Nebraska to their first bowl game after a seven-year drought.
He set the record for most passing yards and highest completion percentage by a freshman in Nebraska football history. The quarterback recently discussed his workout regimen ahead of his sophomore season.
"If I'm being honest, it sucks,. I'm just being honest. It's a constant grind every day. Sometimes you don't see change right away. In this instance, a physical body standpoint doesn't change in a day, it doesn't change in a week, it doesn't change in two weeks, not even three. There's just the consistency of staying on it and keep going on it."
Nebraska will open the 2025 college football season on Thursday, August 28, when the Huskers face the Cincinnati Bearcats at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. The kickoff time has yet to be determined.

Hannah Coor, Kadey Lee McKay enter the transffer portal
Hannah Coor, Kadey Lee McKay enter the transffer portal The transfer portal has seen an influx of Oklahoma Sooners over the last few days. Catcher Corri Hicks entered the portal on Tuesday and was followed by outfielder Maya Bland on Wednesday. On Thursday, true freshman infielder Kadey Lee McKay and junior outfielder Hannah Coor reportedly entered the portal as well. McKay had just five at-bats for the Sooners in 2025. She was 1-for-5 with a run scored. The biggest loss to the portal thus far is arguably Coor, who was a regular part of the Oklahoma outfield. In 23 games, Coor hit .329 with two home runs, 15 RBIs, and 10 runs scored. She proved to be a strong defensive presence in centerfield. The Sooners are bringing back a significant part of their roster in 2025, including outfielders Kasidi Pickering and Abigale Dayton. There are high expectations for true freshman Tia Milloy to become a significant part of the Oklahoma lineup next year. The Sooners are also adding the No. 1 player in the 2025 recruiting class, outfielder Kai Minor, to the roster. The Sooners are also bringing in the No. 1 infielder in the class and No. 3 overall player, Lexi McDaniel. The Sooners will add talent in their 2025 recruiting class, but you can also expect the Sooners to be active in the transfer portal as well.
