Ever since Scott Frost was hired as Nebraska’s head coach on Dec. 2, Husker fans have waited excitedly for the team to hit the field under his leadership.
It would be hard to blame the fan base for collectively daydreaming about that high-powered offense and a defensive system, run by Erik Chinander, that produced 32 turnovers last year at Central Florida.
