2015 HUSKER OFFENSE The 2015 Husker offense will feature a new look in the first year under Head Coach Mike Riley and Offensive Coordinator Danny Langsdorf. Nebraska has the talent across the board to continue the versatility Riley’s offenses have exhibited throughout his coaching career.

Quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. returns after starting the past two seasons. Armstrong has posted 16 victories as the Husker starter and has shown outstanding leadership skills, while possessing the ability to hurt defenses through the air and on the ground. Armstrong accumulated 3,400 yards of total offense as a sophomore, the third-best single-season total in Nebraska history.

A talented group of receivers provide Armstrong with an array of targets in the passing game. Junior Jordan Westerkamp caught 44 passes in 2014, including five touchdowns and has made a habit of making the difficult catches look routine. Sophomore De’Mornay Pierson-El was a dynamic playmaker in his freshman campaign last fall. In addition to being the nation’s top punt returner, Pierson-El showed late in the season that he can be a regular threat as a receiver.

A group of talented backs will be called on to replace All-American Ameer Abdullah. Senior Imani Cross and junior Terrell Newby are the most experienced of the Husker backs and have extensive playing experience in their Nebraska careers.

Up front, senior Alex Lewis is expected to line up at left tackle and anchor the offensive line. Fellow seniors Zach Sterup, Ryne Reeves, Givens Price and Chongo Kondolo are also game tested and ready to lead the offensive line in 2015.

Highlighting the Husker Offense · Tommy Armstrong Jr. accounted for 3,400 yards of total offense in his sophomore season, including four games with more than 300 yards of total offense. He finished the season with a Nebraska bowl-record 422 yards of total offense in the Holiday Bowl.

· Senior I-back Imani Cross has 22 career rushing touchdowns, reaching the end zone on one of every 10 carries over the last 3 seasons.

· Nebraska has had at least one 1,000-yard rusher each of the past six seasons, the longest streak for the Huskers since having a 1,000-yard rusher seven straight years from 1979 to 1985.

2015 HUSKER DEFENSE The Nebraska Blackshirts are poised to continue their long-standing tradition of dominance in the 2015 season. The foundation of the 2015 edition of the Blackshirts should be a powerful front four and a deep and talented secondary.

Junior defensive tackle Maliek Collins earned second-team All-Big Ten honors as a sophomore in 2014, and appears poised to contend for bigger honors this fall. Fellow junior Vincent Valentine combines with Collins to give Nebraska one of the nation’s top defensive tackle tandems. Defensive ends Greg McMullen and Jack Gangwish each have extensive playing experience and help anchor the front four.

In the secondary, junior safety Nate Gerry is poised to continue to progress after a breakout sophomore campaign when he intercepted a team- leading five passes, all in Big Ten play. Gerry is joined in the secondary by senior cornerback Daniel Davie, who started every game last fall and should again play a key role in a stingy pass defense. Gerry and Davie will provide leadership to a secondary that includes an impressive collection of young talent and athleticism.

Lincoln native Josh Banderas is expected to hold down the middle of the Nebraska defense at MIKE linebacker. Banderas is the most veteran player in a young group of linebackers that should continue to progress throughout the 2015 campaign.

The other standout “defensive” player for the 2015 Huskers should be junior punter Sam Foltz. The Nebraska native ranked among the Big Ten’s top punters last fall and has regularly shown the ability to flip field position for Nebraska.

Highlighting the Husker Defense · Nebraska returns six defensive players with at least 10 career starts.

· Defensive tackle Maliek Collins is among the Big Ten’s top returning players in tackles for loss (14) and sacks (4.5). Collins had nine of his TFL in the season’s final six games.

· Safety Nate Gerry intercepted five passes during his sophomore season, all in conference play. Gerry had a takeaway in six of eight Big Ten games and also returned a blocked field goal for a touchdown.

· Nebraska forced at least three turnovers in five games in 2014.

· Nebraska ranked fifth nationally in third-down defensive percentage in 2014, allowing opponents to convert only 30.1% of their third-down attempts into first downs. GREG MCMULLEN, DE

DEFENSIVE DOMINANCE One of Nebraska’s most well-known traditions is the Blackshirts, the common nickname for the Husker defense. The term originally dates back to the early 1960s and refers to the black jerseys that Nebraska’s first-string defenders wear in practice.

With the return of the two-platoon system in college football in 1964, Head Coach Bob Devaney looked for a way to distinguish the defensive units on the practice field. Devaney sent an assistant coach to a local sporting goods store to find “contrast jerseys”, a sleeveless pullover that went on top of the players’ practice jerseys. While the top offensive unit practiced in red jerseys and the second-string offense worked in green pullovers, the first-string defense wore black and the second string wore contrasting gold jerseys.

The term quickly caught on, then gained momentum during Monte Kiffin’s tenure as defensive coordinator in the mid-1970s. The Blackshirts earned national recognition under Charlie McBride, who served as the Huskers’ defensive coordinator from 1982 to 1999.

The Blackshirts celebrated their 50th season in 2013, and new Head Coach Mike Riley and defensive coordinator Mark Banker have readily embraced the long-standing tradition.

HUSKERS.COM ALL-TIME GREATS Following the 1949 season, the N Club voted to retire jersey No. 60 in honor of Tom “Train Wreck” Novak’s stellar career with the Cornhuskers. Novak, the first Nebraska player to earn this honor, had been a four-time All-Big Seven choice and a 1949 All-American. For 55 years, Novak was the only NU player to have the distinction of a retired number. In 2004, that finally changed as College and Pro Football Hall of Famer Bob Brown’s No. 64 joined Novak’s hallowed No. 60 among the only two permanently retired numbers at Nebraska. All major national award winners at Nebraska automatically have their jerseys retired, but their numbers will still be available to active Huskers. Nebraska’s group of 17 players with retired jerseys certainly ranks among the best in the nation. Huskers who have earned the distinction of jersey retirement include three Heisman Trophy winners (Johnny Rodgers, Mike Rozier, Eric Crouch), eight Outland Trophy winners with nine awards (Larry Jacobson, Rich Glover, Dave Rimington (2), Dean Steinkuhler, Will Shields, Zach Wiegert, Aaron Taylor, Ndamukong Suh), five Lombardi Award winners (Rich Glover, Dave Rimington, Dean Steinkuhler, Grant Wistrom, Ndamukong Suh), one Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award winner (Tommie Frazier), one Davey O’Brien Award winner (Eric Crouch), one Butkus Award winner (Trev Alberts) one Rimington Trophy winner (Dominic Raiola), one Bednarik Award Winner (Ndamukong Suh) and one Nagurski trophy (Ndamukong Suh). Nebraska football has 17 players who have been honored with the distinction of having their jerseys retired. Those players have combined for 23 All-America awards and eight are members of the College Football Hall of Fame.

“The Nebraska brand has developed in such a way as other names like Oklahoma, Texas, Southern Cal. It’s one of those programs that when you put them up against a quality opponent, it’s a national game.” Big Ten Conference Commissioner Jim Delany 42 2015 NEBRASKA FOOTBALL . HUSKERS.COM

“There are no words to describe the feeling of making a Tunnel Walk and winning a game in Memorial Stadium. The Tunnel Walk is the single-most exciting part of our games. The anticipation leading up to a football game and that fire you feel in your belly.” Kenny Bell, Nebraska’s all-time leading receiver

GAME DAY ATMOSPHERE Game days at Nebraska are unlike any in college football. Fans line the streets of Lincoln waiting to enter the “Sea of Red,” while the marching band parades up Stadium Drive as thousands of red-clad fans look on. The Huskers emerge from the famous “Tunnel Walk” to the sound of “Sirius” and the fans stay at a frenzied pitch until the final play of the game when they graciously cheer for the opposing players as they exit the field. The Tunnel Walk, which began in 1994, has become an integral part of Memorial Stadium’s game-day experience. It was created as a way for fans to share in the excitement of the team emerging from the locker room, something only a few could do before HuskerVision’s cameras and big screens came to Memorial Stadium. The sounds of the Alan Parsons Project’s “Sirius,” and the roar of more than 90,000 frenzied fans rock the stadium as the Huskers burst through the locker room doors and into the tunnel on their way to the Memorial Stadium FieldTurf. For as long as anyone can remember, the Huskers have touched a lucky horseshoe on their way from the locker room to the field. The horseshoe hangs above the door as Nebraska leaves the North Stadium.

“I’ll tell you the biggest difference between the state of Nebraska and any other state in football. I think the fan’s loyalty, the noise factor that’s on the field and the Sea of Red when you look out.” Brent Musburger, ESPN/ABC Commentator

“There is nothing like playing at Memorial Stadium. I don’t care what other people say. Everything combined, the atmosphere, the whole town is here. When you are walking through there, you have tears in your eyes because of the sheer adrenaline rush. You can’t control it and your eyes start watering and you start shaking.” Spencer Long, Nebraska All-American and Academic All-American 44 2015 NEBRASKA FOOTBALL . HUSKERS.COM

And that’s what makes this place a college football Holy Land.” Tom Dienhart, Big Ten Network

Nebraska fans are perhaps the most loyal in college football. The entire state follows the Huskers, along with a truly national fan base. Cornhusker fans have packed Memorial Stadium for every home game since 1962. In 2009, Nebraska celebrated its 300th consecutive home sellout, a NCAA record streak that stands at 340 games entering the 2015 season. Nebraska has ranked in the top 10 nationally in home attendance the past two seasons, averaging better than 90,000 fans per game in both 2013 and 2014. In 2014, Nebraska had season ticket holders from 49 of 50 states. Husker fans bring their show on the road as well. Red-clad Nebraska fans have traveled in the tens of thousands to bowl games and road games for decades. Opposing stadiums throughout the Big Ten began to see the invasion of Big Red fans in 2011. Every entrance at Memorial Stadium welcomes Nebraska fans with the following phrase: “Through these gates pass the Greatest Fans in College Football.”

“I think Nebraska fans are the greatest fans in college football, no question in my mind. The enthusiasm here is as good as any place, but the integrity here of the fans is the best in America.” Lee Corso, ESPN College Football Analyst 46 2015 NEBRASKA FOOTBALL . HUSKERS.COM WALK-ONS
