Nebraska is a sucker for volleyball. From filling up Memorial Stadium to set a new women’s sports attendance record to doing their best to unnerve the opponent with thunderous chants even on the road, the Nebraska volleyball community is always ready to show its support for the Big Red. Last year, even former head coach John Cook was taken aback after throngs of Huskers fans helped Oregon set a new record. Goes without saying, with the new management to lead the way, the fans would want to keep close tabs on the team’s performance. And how?
The 2025 IndyCar Series just concluded at the Nashville Superspeedway in Lebanon, Tennessee. On the final Sunday of the event, Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy found himself in the fastest seat in motorsport as he led the NTT IndyCar field to the green flag. However, Portnoy also found himself pleasantly surprised by how many Nebraska volleyball fans were present in the city.
The Huskers took on No. 7 Kentucky at the Bridgestone Arena on August 31 for the Broadway Block Party. Naturally, many fans thought it would be a good idea to take a tour of the city along with watching their favorite team in action, and Portnoy was amazed by the numbers. “I’m in Nashville for @IndyCarOnFOX and the town is painted red with Nebraska volleyball fans,” wrote the Barstool Sports president in an X post.
