Shortly ago, Nebraska Cornhuskers Head Coach Matt Rhule took the podium for possibly the final time before the Spring Game and dropped a small bombshell on the assembled press.
There will be live football in full pads played on April 26th when fans descend upon Lincoln for the first Spring Game ever without a…well… spring game.
Before getting too excited, everyone should know Dylan Raiola won’t be slinging them to Jacory Barney Jr. or Dane Key and the Big 10 Network will not be rolling their trucks in to go live on national TV.
However, the players who will be playing and the reasons why should be inspiration enough for dedicated Huskers fans to roll into Lincoln and Memorial Stadium to give it a look.
