Introducing Our Nebraska Football Yearbook - Cornhusker Kickoff 2010!
As the editor, I'm happy to announce that Cornhusker Kickoff 2010 is now available! Cornhusker Kickoff 2010 is the Nebraska football yearbook you're looking for, with 128 ad-free pages of nothing but Husker football. This is our third edition, published by Maple Street Press.
Cornhusker Kickoff 2010 provides an extensive look at the upcoming season, much more than other pre-season magazines that may contain one or two pages about the Huskers. Since it contains no ads, along with plenty of photos, diagrams, and statistics, it will remain as a keepsake for years to come.
Hit the jump for more specific information about the contents.
As always, the yearbook provides a unit by unit breakdown of the 2010 football team, along with an extensive look at the 2010 opponents.
- Our very own Husker Mike Jaixen takes a look at the 2009 season.
- Yours truly tells you about Five Key Players for 2010, including five more you need to be aware of, along with a look at what happened that nearly blew up the Big 12 conference and lead to Nebraska joining the Big 10.
- Tad Stryker provides a look at what happened to the 2009 offense, and why the 2010 version will be better. He conducted an excellent interview with Niles Paul - a player that I believe is going to explode in 2010.
- Steve Sipple of Husker Extra fame takes an in-depth look at the quarterbacks, Zac Lee, Cody Green, and Taylor Martinez. What are Shawn Watson's plans for them?
- Brian Christopherson, also of Husker Extra, provides an interview with Prince Amukamara regarding the teamwork that makes the defensive secondary so special.
- Chris Brown of Smart Football fame provides two articles in football geekin' style. He takes a look at the Husker offense, Shawn Watson's background, describing what Nebraska can do to be successful in the passing game, what made the wildcat offense so successful against Arizona in the Holiday Bowl, and how it will affect the 2010 season.
- Mark Fricke, author of Nebraska Cornhusker Football, is second to none when it comes to Husker football history. He provides a historic look at the Nebraska - Oklahoma Rivalry before it was cool (How's that for timing?).
- Brandon Vogel of Big Red Network looks at the Big 12 conference, answering the question - Is it all about Texas? (Funny thing about this one - it was in the works before the conference alignment talk exploded. Timing, again?)
- Brandon Cavanaugh of Husker Hype breaks down the 2010 recruits and walk-ons.
- Bill Connelly, from the Missouri site Rock M Nation provides an outsider's look at the 2010 season. It's a little different approach - but we will always provide an alternative look at the season ahead. It's a chance to see what our opponents are thinking!
- Corn Nation's own Brian Speers (Mr. Corn) looks at the running backs of the past decade.
Cornhusker Kickoff 2010 will be showing up in Nebraska in mid-July wherever pre-season magazines are sold . If you're not in Nebraska - or you don't want to wait, you can pre-order online from the Maple Street Press web site. The yearbook will be in the MSP warehouse and shipping late this week!

Love the cover photo.
Perfect in that it’s a play over a Texas player. Also love how the title pops against that dark portion of the background. Wonderful layout.

GO BIG RED!
Can't wait to pick one up...
I purchased the 2009 version and LOVED it, so you have an annual purchase from me every year.
And 100% AJ free?
I see you replaced the “HuskerH8ter” with another Missouri fan. Should be a good read.
Where
can I get a copy of this??!!

just curious
how much stuff did you have to rearrange/rewrite when the ‘Nebraska to Big Ten’ realignment chaos began?
you know
it’s funny…. but like I said above, we already had the one article done about the Big 12 being all about Texas before the realignment stuff exploded.
Otherwise – I had someone not turn in two articles, so I was having to move a couple others in to replace them. The hard part was timing – on the Friday the decision was made to join the Big 10 – was just about the last possible time we could still get an article done and make a deadline to the printer.
If Nebraska hadn’t made their decision to join the Big 10 that Friday, I was going to go ahead with an article that speculated that we’d join the Big 10 and take the chance that I’d be right (knowing full well that if we didn’t, then I might look silly when it came out).
So – it was a little nuts, tense to find the last minute stuff, but I think it’s worth it.
I want these yearbooks to be something that’s not only a preview of 2010, but something you can keep around and pick up and read in 2020 and get an idea of where things were at this moment in time, so I’m glad we were able to get the Big 10 stuff in there.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

Awesome stuff.
I, of course read the Buckeye Battle Cry , but Maple Street Press does a great job with all of these.
