Addition of Charles Jackson Gives NU Options at Corner
<font size="2">A player like cornerback Alfonzo Dennard isn't easy to replace, just like Prince Amukamara wasn't easy to replace. Neither were Keyou Craver, Ralph Brown, Tyrone Williams, or Barron Miles if you want to go back further. Nevertheless, the Huskers find themselves in the position of having to find a …
Fixing Nebraska's Cornerback Issues
For Nebraska, the 2011 season and 2012 recruiting class can be defined by one position - cornerback. Forget quarterback play. Forget the need for additional linebackers. The Husker's fortunes have risen and fallen with their corners. A "Bo Pelini Defense" needs great cornerback play, something that was missing for large …
David, Dennard Star on Senior Day
Rex Burkhead's record-breaking performance captured most of the headlines after Nebraska's 20-7 win over Iowa on Friday. But, Nebraska's defense was every bit as impressive. That group was led by two seniors - Lavonte David and Alfonzo Dennard - who delivered excellent performances on senior day. As the regular season …
What We Know Now
As far as game week press conferences for an FCS opponent go, Monday's season opener was a fairly good one. The coaches were a little more upfront on depth chart questions and all in all there were some illuminating bits. Here's a recap:
Husker Football Numerology
You know football news it a bit slow when you get excited about the new football roster being released. Am I right? Not to be too Navin R. Johnson about it, I always take a keen interest in the numbers assigned to - or selected by - incoming freshman. If …

What do we know about recruits? Next to nothing but let's play the game anyway. By now you've no doubt heard or read that Nebraska brought home the second best recruiting class in the Big Ten behind Ohio State. But who among our new conference foes got the "best" player …
Best Class in Ten Years?
With all of the focus on who the new assistant coaching hires will be, what people may not realize is that Nebraska may have just signed its best class in ten years. The only competition might be the class of 2005 and the class of 2007 - both much larger …

Recruiting Roundup: Interview with Bryan Munson
National Letter of Intent Signing Day (a holiday for college football fans if there ever was one) is just days away. Nebraska is trying to put the finishing touches on their 2011 class and keep a hold of the pledges they already have. To get a big-picture view of the Huskers' …
Huskers Add Juco End Coming Down the Home Stretch
Would it be wrong to say the Huskers hit a "home run" in signing Joe Carter at defensive end? What about a three-run walkoff in the bottom of the ninth in the World Series? Too much? Carter's probably heard that kind of stuff his whole life. What he won't hear …
Bo's Best Defense?
In the past two seasons, Nebraska fans have been treated to two tremendous defenses. In 2009, it was led by Ndamukong Suh and a front four that collapsed the pocket quickly, ending plays before they could begin. In 2010, it was a secondary that made completing passes seem downright futile. …
