SBNation: 3 spring game plays that help explain the Scott Frost hype

Nebraska fans always turn out strong for the spring game. The Cornhuskers are the pride of the state, the ultimate example of the regional mascot that college football offers outside of major population hubs. Even in 2017, when Mike Riley was entering a hot seat season and counting on Bob Diaco to turn the defense around, the Huskers had just under 80,000 fans in attendance.

But in 2018, with all the excitement stemming from Scott Frost’s hire, Nebraska set a school record with 86,618 in the seats.

They were rewarded with an exciting afternoon in which the Huskers showed a lot of competency in Frost’s up-tempo offense (and a sound approach on defense as well). Here were a few of the plays that have Cornhuskers faithful buzzing that the glory days of the ‘90s could be coming back to Lincoln.

It's exciting anytime Tyjon Lindsey gets the ball.  That guy really has some wheels!

If Tyjon had stepped on the gas and not try to juke the safety he might’ve scored.

When I saw that play I thought at the very least he could've gotten 10 more yards.

11 if you ask me.

The other part of it is he took a semi-big hit on the play too. If he would've just kept running and slightly going towards the sideline he wouldn't have ever taken much of a hit at all. He would've either scored or been push OOB.

Exactly, I hate seeing that.  When I coached you always tell kids to run and not cut back.  Cut backs are for running in traffic inside a hole, not out in the open field when you are at top speed.  All it allows is for the defender to catch up to you, because you have to slow down to cut back.  He may not have scored, but he would have picked up at least another 10-12 yards.

"Nebraska has a solid collection of tight ends because they were also an important part of Riley’s offense"
