Nebraska 2012 Red-White Spring Football Game Rosters

The 2012 Nebraska Spring Football Game Rosters have been released. The teams appear to be pretty evenly divided, with Taylor Martinez starting on the Red while Brion Carnes and Bronson Marsh are in charge of the White offense.

Red Skill Position Players

Taylor Martinez, Ameer Abdullah, C.J. Zimmerer, Tim Marlowe, Kenny Bell, Ben Cotton

White Skill Position Players

Bronson Marsh, Brion Carnes, Aaron Green, Rex Burkhead, Quincy Enunwa, Mike Marrow, Jamal Turner, Kyler Reed

I wouldn't expect Burkhead to play much, with most of the reps going to the younger running backs. White has the edge in the receiving department, but we'll see who does a better job of throwing the ball.

62 ** Cole Pensick, OL
66 Givens Price, OL
67 Scott Criss, OL

White

51 Brandon Chapek, OL
52 Ryan Klachko, OL

63 ** Andrew Rodriguez, OL
65 Ryne Reeves, OL

72 * Justin Jackson, OL
73 * Tyler Moore, OL
77 * Seung Hoon Choi, OL

Honestly, I think the White gets the better set on the offensive line, especially with the younger guys Reeves and Klachko.

We'll see who does a better job at snapping the ball, though - perhaps it's a good thing that the defensive line is so depleted that the young centers won't be under the full load of pressure.
