Mills should help pace the Nebraska football rushing attack.

Tuesday, Sean Callahan of HuskerOnline.com posed the question of whether Nebraska football running back Dedrick Mills would be able to rush for 1,000 yards.

It’s a fair question. After starting off slow last season, Mills was able to pick up his play at the tail end of it. Now, it’s going to be up to him to sustain that high level of play.
