A new season of Nebraska football’s “Chasing 3” series debuted Sunday night, putting a bow on the first season — spanning last December’s early signing period through this summer’s conditioning workouts — while moving us forward into the 2024 season.

It opens with coach Matt Rhule’s visit to Pat McAfee’s show — as well as Big Ten Media Days in Indianapolis — and weaves through the first two weeks of preseason camp. Like all of the Chasing 3 episodes to date, it’s a well-detailed look behind the Nebraska football curtain. There’s even a moment 38 minutes in that has captured the attention of many, where Rhule grows frustrated with his team during the Big Red Preview that welcomed fans to Memorial Stadium for a Saturday camp practice.

“Look at me real quick,” Rhule shouts to his players. “You guys want to know why we lost a lot of close games. You just saw it.”
