Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule has dismissed assistant coach Holgorsen following the team's fourth loss of the season. The decision comes after the Cornhuskers fell to the Illinois Fighting Illini on November 6, 2026, at Gies Memorial Stadium in Champaign, Illinois.
Quarterback Anthony Colandrea, wearing number 10, saw action in the second half of the game. The loss marked Nebraska's fourth defeat, prompting Rhule to make a staff change.
Rhule, in his first season at Nebraska, announced the move on November 7, 2026. No immediate replacement for Holgorsen was named.
