"It still burns," Allick said. "It was just different. You know, my freshman year, that was a freaking fluke. That was infuriating. And then my sophomore year, that was just brutal. An absolute beatdown on national television. So, yeah, kudos to Texas. And then Penn State, man, that is just like a gritty match." (2:30 0nwards)

Allick added:

"At the end of the game, I was wishing them luck and, you know, telling them to go kick some butt. Um, yeah. Yeah. So, like in the name of sportsmanship, honestly, I was like, "Okay, like I tip my hat to you." But leaving and like sitting in the locker room, it was just like a mixture of anger, sadness, and like I don't know cuz I feel like I left everything out on the floor."

Rebekah Allick is selected as the captain alongside Bergen Reilly and Andi Jackson for the Huskers in the 2025 season.
