Red Report: Huskers break out the beeping footballs after recent fumbles

Add this to the list of things you could have invented but unfortunately didn't: Beeping footballs that stop beeping if the running back isn't holding the ball high and tight.

Sounds like a cool idea. Danny Langsdorf thought so, which is why the Nebraska athletic department purchased a few of them this past offseason after the Husker offensive coordinator noticed the Baltimore Ravens using them.

The idea, of course, is to stress ball security, and that's something top of mind in Husker camp after running backs have lost three fumbles inside the red zone in the past two games.
