Nebraska Farm Bureau wants to capitalize on SAF potential
Nebraska Farm Bureau president Mark McHargue says his state has an opportunity to capitalize on the sustainable aviation fuel market.
Speaking to Brownfield at the American Farm Bureau Convention in San Antonio, Texas, he said Nebraska is developing a pipeline to capture carbon dioxide.
“So I think using our ethanol or corn stover to go into sustainable aviation fuel is going to be important.”
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – John Cook and the Nebraska volleyball team landed a big time transfer Sunday, getting a commitment from former Baylor star Allie Sczech.
The 6-foot-4 opposite hitter announced her commitment in a post on Instagram:

The Sugarland, Texas, native was previously the No. 32 recruit in the nation when she committed to Baylor in 2022.
Sczech finished the 2024 season with 268 kills, totaling 2.44 kills per set. She had a .273 hitting percentage and also totaled 0.65 blocks per set.
The Huskers have a big hole in the offense with the departure of outside hitter Merritt Beason, and Sczech’s high production will help fill that void.
Sczech will have one season of eligibility remaining.
Date: Sunday January 26th, 2025
Tipoff: Noon (CT).
Arena: Kohl Center (Madison, Wisconsin)
Radio: Sunday’s game will be carried on the Huskers Radio Network with Kent Pavelka and Jake Muhleisen on the call, including KLIN (1400 AM) in Lincoln, KXSP (590 AM) in Omaha and KRVN (880 AM) in Lexington. The pregame show begins an hour before tipoff and will also be available on Huskers.com and the Huskers app.
TV/Online: Sunday’s game will be on BTN with Kevin Kugler and Stephen Bardo on the call. It will also be available online on the Fox Sports app.
Jarek’s Pre-tipoff Thoughts: Ok, eventually Nebraska has to win a game in the conference again, right? This will be a big game for Connor Essegian, the former Badger who gets to play against his old team at his old home. The rest of the Huskers will have to match his intensity levels, as it is a different breed of animal to face a former team. If, and it’s a big if, they can do that, Nebraska just might have a chance. Nebraska’s last road game, which was Maryland, was a much better performance on the road than any other this season. Hopefully that momentum continues. Having said all of that, I just don’t see Nebraska winning, making the Conference losing streak 6 games. Prediction: Wisconsin 91 Nebraska 76.
Women’s Basketball
The style of play used by the Buckeyes – a full court press and pressure defense has flustered the Huskers in their most recent matchups. The Buckeyes try to take their opponent out of the game early and has an offense that comes at you from every position on the floor.
Can the Huskers stay composed and handle the early punches from the Buckeyes? Will they be in position to pull off one of their patented fourth quarter surges?
