Key Huskers: #6 Kyler ReedRobin Washut HuskerOnline.com Staff Writer
Reed's strengths
Junior Kyler Reed could very well be as important of a piece to his team's passing game then as tight end in the country. Reed is just as dangerous split out wide as a receiver as he is on the line, and he set a tight end school record for touchdown catches in a season with eight and finished third on the team with 22 receptions for 395 yards. Reed's average of 18.0 yards per catch also led the team, as he had four touchdowns of at least 33 yards along with six catches good for at least 20 yards.

Most memorable play or moment
Quarterback Taylor Martinez stole the show in Nebraska's throttling of Kansas State last season in Manhattan, but it was Reed who helped pull off the biggest play of the night. With the game already well in hand late in the third quarter, Martinez hit a wide-open Reed deep across the middle for a 79-yard touchdown pass to give the Huskers a 38-6 lead. The play marked Nebraska's longest touchdown pass since 2003, and at the moment showed the Huskers' were more than just an explosive running team.
