    Pelini says year three is key in Huskers evolution
    Bo Pelini has seen firsthand what can happen in the third year under a football coaching staff if it gets the right things done in the first two. Pelini was defensive coordinator for Les Miles from the start at Louisiana State, where the Tigers set the table in 2005 and ’06 before winning the national championship in 2007. Pelini has voluntarily mentioned “year three” at different times in the past six weeks — starting with Big 12 media days in Dallas — and... »

    Hilltoppers’ Rainey ready for Huskers

    It hurt Bobby Rainey last year to sometimes not be hurting the morning after Western Kentucky football games. Rainey had a productive sophomore season for the Hilltoppers, nearly hitting 1,000 yards and averaging an impressive 6.5 per carry for a winless team. But the 5-foot-8, 196-pounder from Griffin, Ga., felt as if he had so much more to give. “To me, I thought I should have got more carries, because of the production I was getting,” Rainey said. “But it didn’t work...

    Huskers’ 2007 schedule was brutal

    Toughest Nebraska schedule ever? That’s certainly the initial perception upon seeing the Huskers’ 2011 Big Ten slate. NU will face all five Big Ten heavyweights: Wisconsin, Ohio State, Penn State, Michigan and Iowa. That’s in addition to nonconference games against Fresno State, Washington and Wyoming. It’s too early to know how those opponents will perform in 2011 — let alone 2010. How many might be ranked in the top 25? How many might be top 10? As we speculate,...

    Notes: Foot injury sidelines Compton

    It appears that Nebraska will be without another top linebacker for a significant portion of the season. Sophomore Will Compton suffered a foot injury during Thursday's practice, coach Bo Pelini said in a press release. The severity is unknown at this point, but it's assumed that Compton will be sidelined for more than just one week. “After practice we were able to confirm that he will be out for some time,” Pelini said. “We have informed his family about the injury, and we...

    Pair of shutouts in hand, but 'great challenge' ahead

    Nebraska’s season off to good start; taking on Indiana Saturday. Coach John Walker saw some progress last weekend after Nebraska shut out Loyola Chicago and Loyola Maryland in the Husker Classic. “We had two games where we didn’t allow a goal. Very few shots, very few set plays,’’ he said. “That was the emphasis in training all week. That was better.’’ Because of the short preseason, Walker said there’s room for improvement in every area at...
