USC begins a crucial, pivot-point season under a new defensive coaching staff in the Big Ten Conference. Nebraska is also beginning a very crucial season under Matt Rhule. The Huskers haven’t made a bowl game yet this decade. That drought must end this season, and being realistic, the Huskers need to show not only that they are a bowl team, but a good team. Some bowl teams are 6-6. That’s not good. That’s average. Nebraska needs to get back to being above average.
Cornhuskers Wire is covering Nebraska. Here’s a note about the Huskers’ quarterback situation:
“Nebraska football offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield revealed some strategy on Tuesday afternoon. He indicated that quarterback Heinrich Haarberg would see time on the field alongside quarterback Dylan Raiola.
“Haarberg was the team’s starting quarterback for much of the 2023 season. He threw for 967 yards, seven touchdowns, and seven interceptions. The junior has a solid frame at six-foot-five, 225 pounds. The Nebraska native also saw a bit of time at wide receiver last season, playing a few snaps in the opener against Minnesota.”
