Biography
I am a writer and editor with more than 20 years experience covering primarily sports, but also food, arts, city government and more. My first big break as a writer, I suppose, was winning a blogging competition at Fox Sports, earning me the title of Next Great Sportswriter of 2006. After writing for Fox I went on to cover Nebraska football and basketball for CBS Sports. In 2012, I started as a reporter at Hail Varsity, a new, independent, monthly magazine covering the Huskers. I was promoted to managing editor in 2013, and oversaw all of our editorial operations, managing a team of seven-to-10 writers and photographers, for the next decade. I am the co-author of "Dream Like a Champion" with Nebraska volleyball coach John Cook. Published by the University of Nebraska Press in 2017, the book has sold more than 10,000 copies to date and remains in print. Since August of 2023 I have been growing a Substack, counterread.com, focused on coverage of Nebraska sports stories, while continuing to perform freelance writing and editing.

By Brandon Vogel Verified| counterread.com@ Nebraska has had bigger offensive outbursts in its recent past than Saturday’s 44-25 win over Wisconsin on 473 total yards. There were the 657 yards in a 56-7 win over Northwestern in 2021, 620 against Rutgers in a 28-21 2020 win and 659 against 2018 Minnesota for a 53-28 win. The Huskers’ bowl-clinching win wasn’t one of those in good ways. For one, none of Nebraska’s bigger-number games since 2016 came against a top-20 defense by SP+.
By Brandon Vogel Verified| counterread.com@ By most measures, Nebraska’s 28-20 loss at USC was by the book. The Huskers were about 8-point underdogs by kickoff and lost by eight. The College Football Nerds model projected 6.5 yards per play for the Trojans and 4.7 for NU. The teams averaged 6.6 and 4.9 respectively. That same model pegged Dylan Raiola at 27-for-38 passing with 253 yards. Nailed the attempts and completions, exactly, but Raiola only hit for 191 yards.
