Cornhuskers
Heartland state residents
Cornhuskers is the nickname for athletic teams of the University of Nebraska, and by extension, a general nickname for Nebraskans.
The name reflects the state's agricultural heritage and identity as part of the American heartland: The Cornhuskers are favored to win the Big Ten championship. (Lowercase cornhuskers refers to people or machines that husk corn.)
