Nebraska Cornhuskers head coach Matt Rhule announced the dismissal of offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen on Sunday, November 8, 2026. The move comes amid a disappointing offensive performance this season, with the team ranking near the bottom of the Big Ten in scoring and total yards.
The decision sparked immediate reaction across social media platforms, where fans and analysts debated the timing and potential replacements. Holgorsen, a former head coach at West Virginia and Houston, had been in his first season as Nebraska's offensive coordinator.
Rhule did not immediately name an interim coordinator, but indicated that an internal candidate would assume play-calling duties for the remainder of the season.
