Coach just said QB's will not be live But "We are going to play a game"

He just said that at his presser right now.  So sounds like it will be a regular game, probably a running clock in the second half though.

Last year, teams knew we couldn't throw the ball effectively.  I think Rhule wants to use the spring game to send a message to early opponents that, that's not the case this year.

They've been trying to placate runthedamnballguy in the press conferences by saying they're just not focused on the running game because they're confident in it from last year, but anyone even remotely paying attention should see right through that.

They know they have a kid with a rocket laser arm and a room of potentially very explosive wide receivers and most of those aforementioned pieces are simply young and inexperienced. What we see a lot in teams fitting Nebraska's profile of having to start a young QB after coming off a season where they ran the ball pretty effectively and had a pretty good defense is to protect the young QB and rely on those other elements.

Are we seeing that in practice? No, not even close. Two of these guys should be worried who they're taking to the senior prom right now and instead are watching White play dial-a-blitz on them. They're trying to cram as much experience into these young guys as they can. My opinion, and that's all it is worth, is there is a belief in that building that if this offense can even remotely approach its potential that this can be an extremely good team this year. They're not treating this like they just need to win a couple more games and go bowling.

Is there a Unity Walk tomorrow? Bringing the kids to their first Huskers game and want them to get the FULL Experience! 

 
Whites have most of the 1s today. Reds have the 2s.

For the first time since the beginning of the Devaney era, the White team has won three straight Spring Games. If the 1s win today that's a four-game win streak.
