New Nebraska offensive coaches don’t tip their hand in spring game Looking for consistency and proof of dramatic change in a spring football game is a fool’s errand, and more than 50,000 victory-starved Nebraska football fans were reminded of that on a sunny, windy Saturday in Memorial Stadium. Occasional flashes of brilliance – or at least enough improvement to provide hope – are a reasonable expectation, though, and transfer running back Anthony Grant provided one with a 60-yard touchdown run down the west sideline in the first quarter. I didn’t see anything from any quarterback that would q...

Keep an eye on the offensive line and special teams Saturday Full disclosure: Dr. Rob will be on vacation and will not be at the spring game and won't be back in time to do a proper review of the game. So the next best thing is to give you some thoughts on what to expect as you sit down and watch the game as a fan. Dr. Rob says to keep an eye on the offensive line and special teams. Dr. Rob knows the new offensive scheme will get all the oohs and aahs, but a spring game is not the place to gauge how much progress has been made. That will come with real competition in the fall.

Mickey Joseph discusses Zavier Betts’ status and more after final practice before spring game With Zavier Betts' departure, Omar Manning has moved back to the X receiver spot on the outside after spending much of the spring as a slot receiver. "We think his natural position is going to be X," position coach Mickey Joseph said after Wednesday's Nebraska football practice, "but the best thing about it is he proved he can learn two positions. So he learned R and then he went to X, and he's been fine." As for Betts' status, Joseph said: "He's not on the team right now, but we visit with Zavier. .....

Offense vs. defense a possibility in spring finale Saturday The format of Saturday's Nebraska football spring game is still being determined. Coach Scott Frost said after Monday's practice that he'd prefer the traditional full two-team format of Reds vs. Whites, but that might not be doable because of injuries. A possible alternative would be an offense-vs.-defense setup similar to what was used in the 2014 spring game. Regardless of the game's format, "a lot of the stuff we're doing now isn't on tape, so we certainly don't want to show many of our cards. But ... guys are going to want to comp...

Nebraska’s tight ends enjoy being more of a first option in the passing game Even though he's the offensive coordinator, Mark Whipple says it's probably a good thing that his unit hasn't consistently held the upper hand during spring ball. "We've had good battles with the defense," Whipple said after Wednesday's Nebraska football practice, the 11th of spring. "What I've always learned in spring practice is if one side is dominating the other, you probably don't have a good team. But I believe we have a good team because the defense has made plays and the offense has bounced back and handled ad...

Transfer punter Brian Buschini drew praise from Busch for his mind-set and work ethic.
