Nebraska has the ultimate troll against Cincinnati after huge season opener win

The Nebraska Cornhuskers started off the 2025 season with a close win against the Cincinnati Bearcats in Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City on Thursday night. The Cornhuskers brought it down to the wire with a game-sealing interception to win it all and give them a 1-0 record for the start of the season.

Of course, playing the Bearcats in the home of the Kansas City Chiefs meant it was almost inevitable that Cincinnati football alum Travis Kelce was going to be in the house rooting on his former college team. With the news of Kelce and Taylor Swift's engagement, it was also a wonder if the couple would be there together, and they were.
