Coach sees motivated Nebraska football team as home opener nears Scott Frost says his Huskers remain confident and motivated despite last weekend's loss to Northwestern and the resulting negativity from some fans and media pundits.

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.

Roosevelt__ Wide Receivers It's apparent that when WR assistant coach Mickey Joseph came to Lincoln in January, he didn't like what he saw in the wide receiver room.

Clarity is emerging in the competition at running back. Part of Wednesday’s practice was open to the media, and one observation of note was the absence of tight ends Travis Vokolek and Austin Allen. Afterward, much of the talk revolved around the running backs as coaches and players from the offense fielded reporters' questions. Running backs coach Ryan Held said a depth chart was "starting to work itself through." Alluding to the "unproven" label that's been attached to his group, Held said: "Our guys want to go out there and prove that we have talent in the room and be able to be a position ...
