===Baseball===
{{main|Nebraska Cornhuskers baseball}}
Nebraska established a baseball program in 1889, making it the school's oldest active varsity sport. The team was disjointed in its first decades, often disbanding for years at a time. The hiring of Tony Sharpe in 1947 brought stability but limited success – Sharpe and his successor [[John Sanders (baseball)|John Sanders]] combined to lead fifty-one seasons, making just three postseason appearances. [[Dave Van Horn]] was hired in 1998 and established a national power, culminating in Nebraska's first [[College World Series]] appearances in 2001 and 2002, a landmark moment for a state that has hosted the event since 1950.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.theindependent.com/huskershq/big-finish/article_49e950f9-a922-5a4d-aa02-745a917fc8ab.html|title=Big Finish|author=Terry Douglass|work=[[Grand Island Independent]]|date=2 June 2001|accessdate=7 July 2019|location=[[Grand Island, Nebraska]]|language=en|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190706000740/https://www.theindependent.com/huskershq/big-finish/article_49e950f9-a922-5a4d-aa02-745a917fc8ab.html|archive-date=6 July 2019}}</ref> Assistant [[Mike Anderson (baseball coach)|Mike Anderson]] took over for Van Horn and led NU to its best-ever season, finishing 57–15 and reaching another College World Series in 2005. Anderson did not sustain this success and was fired in 2011, the same year Nebraska transitioned to the [[Big Ten Conference|Big Ten]]. NU has experienced little national success since joining the conference.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://huskercorner.com/2023/05/26/nebraska-cornhuskers-b1g-baseball-attendance/|title=Nebraska Cornhuskers: B1G baseball attendance is worse than you thought|author=Oliver Vandervoort|website=Husker Corner|date=26 May 2023|access-date=26 April 2025}}</ref>

===Basketball===
;Men
{{main|Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball}}
Prior to the creation of the [[NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA tournament]], Nebraska was a [[Midwestern United States|Midwest]] power under head coaches Raymond G. Clapp and [[Ewald O. Stiehm]].<ref name=Jumbo>{{cite web|url=https://247sports.com/college/nebraska/Article/Mike-Babcock-on-Ewald-Stiehm-62289/|title=How It Was: The first great coach|author=Mike Babcock|publisher=[[247Sports]]|date=21 February 2012|access-date=1 June 2020}}</ref> NU struggled through the post-[[World War II]] years, which included a stretch of twenty-eight years with just two winning seasons that stretched into the 1960s. Much of the team's modest modern-day success came during the fourteen-year tenure of [[Danny Nee]], Nebraska's winningest head coach. Nee led the Cornhuskers to five of their eight NCAA Division I tournament appearances and won the [[1996 National Invitation Tournament]], NU's first national postseason title. Nebraska has reached the NCAA tournament just twice since Nee was fired in 2000. In 2019, NU hired former [[Chicago Bulls]] head coach [[Fred Hoiberg]], who led the Cornhuskers to the inaugural [[College Basketball Crown]] championship in 2025.

Nebraska's men's and women's basketball teams have played at [[Pinnacle Bank Arena|West Haymarket Arena]] (known as Pinnacle Bank Arena for sponsorship purposes) since its construction in 2013.

[[File:Yori285 Yori9x12.jpg|thumb|200px|[[Connie Yori]] is Nebraska's all-time winningest women's basketball coach]]
Nebraska's women's basketball history began with a short-lived club team in the early 1900; the program was shuttered until the 1972 enactment of [[Title IX]].<ref>{{cite journal|url=https://history.nebraska.gov/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/doc_publications_NH1983LPound.pdf|title=Nebraska's Scholarly Athlete: Louise Pound, 1872-1958|author=Nellie Snyder Yost|journal=[[History Nebraska]]|date=1983|access-date=10 March 2025|format=PDF}}</ref> Angela Beck took Nebraska to its first [[1988 NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament|NCAA Division I tournament]] and won the 1988 [[Big Eight Conference|Big Eight]] championship.

[[Connie Yori]], hired from [[Creighton Bluejays women's basketball|Creighton]] in 2002, steadily built a national contender, culminating in a 2009–10 season that was the best in school history – NU started 30–0 and became the first Big 12 team to complete an undefeated regular season.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dailynebraskan.com/sports/2009-10-team-reunion-brings-back-memories-for-nebraska-women-s-basketball/article_c0d9e2ba-0cca-11ea-85c5-c363ed97c078.html|title=2009-10 team reunion brings back memories for Nebraska women's basketball|author=Austin Knippelmeir|publisher=[[The Daily Nebraskan]]|date=22 November 2019|access-date=11 March 2025}}</ref> [[Kelsey Griffin]] was a national player of the year finalist and Yori was named national coach of the year.

===Bowling===
{{main|Nebraska Cornhuskers bowling}}
Nebraska's bowling program was founded as a club team in 1983 and became a varsity sport in 1997. It is the most successful collegiate program in bowling history, winning eleven national championships and qualifying for every [[NCAA bowling championship|NCAA championship]]. Most of this success came under Bill Straub, who coached for thirty-six years and granted the first full scholarships in bowling history.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.dailynebraskan.com/sports/straub-retires-after-36-years-at-husker-bowling-helm/article_24371ef0-c9e5-11e9-9f93-0b6e7cecb2d2.html|title=Straub retires after 36 years at Husker bowling helm|author=Martin Herz|publisher=[[The Daily Nebraskan]]|date=28 August 2019|access-date=8 March 2025}}</ref> The team has been coached by longtime assistant Paul Klempa since Straub's retirement in 2019.

Bowling competes as an independent, making it one of three programs at Nebraska not affiliated with the [[Big Ten Conference|Big Ten]].

*'''WIBC''' (5) / '''NCAA''' (6) '''championships''': 1991, 1995, 1997, 1999, 2001, 2004, 2005, 2009, 2013, 2015, 2021

===Football===
{{main|Nebraska Cornhuskers football}}
[[File:Tommie Frazier photo.jpg|thumb|175px|Quarterback [[Tommie Frazier]] was named most valuable player of three national championship games]]
Nebraska is among the most storied programs in college football history, winning forty-six conference championships and five [[College football national championships in NCAA Division I FBS|national championships]], along with seven unclaimed national titles. Its 1971 and 1995 teams are considered among the best ever. [[Heisman Trophy]] winners [[Johnny Rodgers]], [[Mike Rozier]], and [[Eric Crouch]] join twenty-four other Cornhuskers in the [[College Football Hall of Fame]].

The program's first extended period of success came early in the twentieth century. Between 1900 and 1916, Nebraska had five undefeated seasons and a stretch of thirty-four games without a loss.<ref name=Jumbo/> The Cornhuskers won twenty-four conference championships prior to [[World War II]] but struggled through the postwar years until [[Bob Devaney]] was hired in 1962. Devaney built Nebraska into a national power, winning two national championships and eight conference titles in eleven seasons as head coach. Offensive coordinator [[Tom Osborne]] was named Devaney's successor in 1973 and over the next twenty-five years established himself as one of the best coaches in college football history with his trademark [[I formation]] offense and revolutionary strength, conditioning, and nutrition programs.<ref>{{cite web|title=How it was: Osborne on the Option|author=Mike Babcock|url=https://247sports.com/college/nebraska/Article/Nebraska-Tom-Osborne-on-the-option-offense-40100/|website=[[247Sports]]|date=15 September 2011|access-date=3 June 2020}}</ref> Following Osborne's retirement in 1997, Nebraska cycled through five head coaches before hiring [[Matt Rhule]] in 2023.
