It was nice to have him playing significant minutes again!
Nebraska senior center Kurt Mann returned to the field Saturday night against Kansas State for the first time since the Huskers' Sept. 2 season opener against Louisiana Tech.
Mann had missed Nebraska's previous five games while recovering from a bout with mononucleosis. The 6-foot-4, 290-pounder from Grand Island didn't start, but entered the game with 8:57 left in the first half to spell starting center Brett Byford. Mann started at the center spot to begin the second half.
Prior to his illness, Mann had made 24 consecutive starts for Nebraska. He was in uniform for the first time on Oct. 7 in NU's game at Iowa State, but didn't play in the contest.
Mann had a great block on Lucky's 40 yard TD run. If they got a point for every TFL, I guess we would too, and I think we would have really blown them out then... :wacko:did he run-block? Hell, did any of them? It was a good thing that KSucks couldn't get a pt. for each tackle for loss they had, otherwise the Huskers could've lost.
Can't blame one person though...and glad he's playing again. Man, sounds like he's just lucky to be doing much of anything, what a bad experience.
Did you happen to notice all the tackles for loss the Blackshirts had? Or does your pessimism not allow you to look at it that way? :nutzdid he run-block? Hell, did any of them? It was a good thing that KSucks couldn't get a pt. for each tackle for loss they had, otherwise the Huskers could've lost.
He's played the last 3 games, so no.Any chance for a Medical Redshirt for him?
Or is he playing now?
