On a wintry freezing day the last weekend in October, the Nebraska Cornhuskers dominated the Purdue Boilermakers and won 31-14 to garner their fifth win in the last six games. It was the first time the Huskers have won three games in a row since Mike Riley was head coach in 2016. With the bye week, the Huskers finished undefeated in October for the first time in 22 years. In a game the Blackshirt defense deserved a shutout, the offense and special teams put them in perilous positions repeatedly with five fumbles of which four were lost. Nebraska turned the ball over on its first touches of the...

Suddenly minus three starters on the offensive line, Nebraska offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield isn't bringing out the crying towel. "I'm good with where we're going up front," Satterfield said after Tuesday morning's practice. "We'll be just fine as long as we stay healthy with who we've got up there right now. We'll continue to be physical. We'll continue to run the football." Head coach Matt Rhule announced Monday that Turner Corcoran and Ethan Piper had suffered season-ending injuries. Also, Nouredin Nouili will miss Saturday's game against Purdue at the very least. "We got good you...

Huskers discuss upcoming North Dakota game and loss to Northwestern Coach Scott Frost discussed what went wrong in the Huskers’ loss to Northwestern and urged fans to stay behind the team. “Don’t give up on this team, because this is a neat group of kids,” he said Tuesday during Nebraska football's weekly press conference ahead of Saturday's game against North Dakota. As for the season-opening upset loss in Ireland, Frost said it “came down to four or five plays on both sides of the ball again that we need to execute.” Avoiding a repeat of that “comes down to detail and consistency.” Other poi...

QB competition remains open, but Casey Thompson will take first snaps of preseason camp with No. 1 offense A win-now attitude was the order of the day Tuesday during Nebraska's turn at the microphones at Big Ten Football Media Days in Indianapolis. "It's our time to do it," said head coach Scott Frost, who has a 15-29 record entering his fifth season at the helm in Lincoln. His teams have never finished better than fifth in the seven-team Big Ten West Division. Frost said the Aug. 27 opener against Northwestern in Ireland is not being treated as a plum. "We didn't earn this trip," he said. "Th...

2022 Huskers kick off spring practice and meet the press Nebraska football's spring drills kicked off Monday, and head coach Scott Frost said afterward that it will "be a fight" at quarterback. But Texas transfer Casey Thompson appears to be the early leader. New offensive coordinator Mark Whipple said Thompson took the first snap Monday with the offense and was the most impressive during the morning practice. Thompson won't be limited by the thumb injury he suffered last fall while at Texas, Frost said, though it still requires attention from the training staff. Much more from Monday's media ...

News from Tuesday's Nebraska football practice also includes down-to-the-wire competition at a cornerback spot. The Huskers appear to have their top guy at running back for the season opener, but they aren't saying who it is. Offensive coordinator Matt Lubick indicated after Tuesday's practice that the field of top contenders had been narrowed to a top man ready to shoulder the bulk of the carries when Nebraska takes on Illinois in Champaign on Saturday. The most likely candidates appear to be Sevion Morrison, Markese Stepp and Gabe Ervin. On defense, coordinator Erik Chinander wasn't ready to...

Battles for starting jobs continue at cornerback and at a few key specialist positions. Defense and special teams were the focus of discussion after Monday's Nebraska football practice, and battles continue at the cornerback spot opposite Cam Taylor-Britt and at a few specialist positions. Defensive coordinator Erik Chinander said sophomore cornerbacks Quinton Newsome, Braxton Clark and Tyreke Johnson are all getting reps with the No. 1 defense. "That position has got to shake out a little bit for us," Chinander said. Likewise, special teams coordinator Mike Dawson said the No. 1 punter, retur...
