Q&A With Virginia Tech - Will Tyrod Taylor Survive?
We teamed up with SB Nation's Virginia Tech blog, Gobbler Country, to provide additional insight to the Nebraska - Virginia Tech game this Saturday. Furrier4heisman provided some good responses to questions from myself and Husker Mike. Big Red Network did a Q&A session with Gobbler Country earlier...
Loss of Jaivorio Burkes Deals Blow to Husker Offensive Line - Linebacker Matt Holt to Sit Out 2009
Bo Pelini announced at Big 12 media days that Jaivorio Burkes was no longer with the Husker football team. It wasn't news as much as a confirmation of what was already suspected - that Burkes medical condition would keep him from playing this year. There was hope that things would work out for the...
2009 Pre-Season All Big 12 Team - Selecting Offensive Linemen
Offensive linemen are the most difficult players to measure on any team, potentially in any sport. They're the only players on a team for which there are no individual statistics. Some teams do track knockdowns, also known as "pancake" blocks - a block in which the opposing player is driven to the...
Offensive Line Experience Counts - Huskers Have It, Kansas Doesn't

Drive Chartin' - Nebraska vs San Jose State
One thing I haven't seen mentioned anywhere - TE Hunter Teafatiller started this game. He played one play, left the game and then I never saw him again. His return could be key, as you can see the number of times that Mike McNeill had miscues. Here is a run down on Nebraska's offensive drives,...
Husker Offensive Line Must Dictate To Defense
“We want to be able to play physical football in Nebraska. We want to be able to run the football when we want to and not let people dictate to us but dictate to the defense what we want to do, and impose our will on the opposing team.” — Pelini, on his offensive philosophy. In...
Nebraska Cornhuskers' 2007 Offensive Line
The Cornhusker offensive line will be much improved this season. If we're going to be a championship team (whether Big 12 or National), the offensive line is where it's going to have to start. You can have all the Reggie Bush's you want in the backfield, and all the Vince Young's taking the snaps...
