TA & POB

[Mavric]

 

 

POB is running with the scout team, Fyfe is running with the ones and twos. Fyfe will play if TA is out, and POB will become the designated backup for Fyfe. There is no scenario in which we burn his redshirt unless BOTH TA and Fyfe are hurt.

At this point, I think they're all in for protecting POB's redshirt, and Darlington would take snaps if something happened to Fyfe.

 

That is not what Riley has stated.

 

Uh.....

 

Coach Mike Riley said on Monday he’d know more later in the week and most likely have a firm answer on Armstrong’s availability on Thursday. Armstrong, dressed in team leisure gear, stood with offensive coordinator Danny Langsdorf at practice while other quarterbacks worked drills.

 

In his absence, backup quarterback Ryker Fyfe got starter’s snaps Tuesday. Fyfe’s backup for the game is Zack Darlington, a quarterback-turned-wideout who is NU’s holder and will serve as an emergency signal caller for the Huskers so Nebraska can preserve the redshirt of true freshman Patrick O’Brien.
