Nebraska’s women’s volleyball team didn’t just beat Creighton on Wednesday night. The Huskers rolled to another statement win in front of a sold-out crowd at Pinnacle Bank Arena, and the night wound up drawing attention for something happening well away from the court.
A fan in the stands became the unexpected center of the conversation after a photographer captured her holding up a phone with a text exchange visible to nearby spectators. In the image, the woman appeared to be texting her boyfriend or husband about an intimate issue she said she had to address from the arena seats.
The first text read, “Not really, but lots of females do. I’m just trying to learn more about your preferences.”
Her reply was even more blunt: “I personally don’t want to eat another chics p-- or want her doing me.”
The good news for her was that her face was not shown in the photo.
On the court, though, Nebraska made sure the volleyball itself was the main story. The top-ranked Huskers swept No. 20 Creighton 25-13, 25-15, 25-19, powering through the match with a dominant effort in front of a program-record indoor crowd of 15,405.
Nebraska controlled the net from start to finish, finishing with 41 total kills and a .202 hitting percentage. The defense was just as sharp, limiting Creighton to 17 kills and a -.033 hitting percentage.
Andi Jackson led the way with nine kills and six blocks, while Kenna Cogill delivered eight efficient kills in her first start. The win kept Nebraska unbeaten at 8-0.

Nebraska's North Dakota Preview Feels More Like A Warning
North Dakota comes into its matchup with Nebraska carrying a 3-0 record and a clear sense that this is more than a routine nonconference tuneup. Under second-year coach Eric Schmidt, the Fighting Hawks have put together a team that has handled both sides of the ball well, and they arrive with enough momentum to make the trip feel less like a formality and more like a legitimate test for the Cornhuskers.
A senior quarterback in Jerry Kaminski, a sophomore runner in Charles Langama and a senior target in Korey Tai give North Dakota the kind of veteran core that can stress a defense if it gets comfortable. Nebraska still has the edge on paper and brings Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week Anthony Colandrea into the game, but this is the sort of opponent that can expose a lapse in focus if the Huskers treat it like just another Saturday.

Nebraska Just Got A New Big Ten Reality Check
The Big Ten has already given Nebraska a clearer look at what life will be like in 2026-27, and the schedule is not exactly light on familiar pressure points. The Cornhuskers will get home-and-away tests against Penn State, Iowa and Michigan State, plus a home date with Michigan, a reminder that every season in this league comes with a stack of games that can shape the whole month before conference play even settles in.
There was also a football note with some long-range appeal for Nebraska fans, as the school and Notre Dame set a home-and-home series for 2032 and 2033. It will be the teams' first meeting since 2001, which keeps a little shine on the future even as the present brings its own off-field and injury-related storylines around former Cornhuskers and upcoming opponents.

Nebraska Suddenly Has A Serious Fight On Its Hands With Top Commit
A highly regarded Nebraska defensive back commitment has suddenly become one of the more interesting recruiting watch items in the class. Corey Hadley, a four-star corner who remains pledged to the Cornhuskers, has started drawing more attention down the stretch, and his recent unofficial visit to Georgia has only added to the buzz around his recruitment. With Florida and Alabama also reaching out lately, Nebraska is facing the familiar late-cycle challenge of holding onto a blue-chip prospect while bigger-name programs circle.
Hadleys connection to Georgia makes the situation especially worth monitoring, since the Bulldogs are his hometown team and clearly not treating him like a locked-up commit elsewhere. For Nebraska, the concern is less about one visit than the momentum that can build when elite programs keep pressing before signing day. The Cornhuskers still have his commitment, but this one has the feel of a recruitment that could stay unsettled for a while. [Read more 🡒]
