Nebraska Football Tickets

New coaches bring new blood, enthusiasm

The addition of new coaching to the Nebraska football staff has given a new sense of enthusiasm to fans with Nebraska football tickets as the Huskers head into their first season in the Big Ten Conference.
With Tim Beck moving up to offensive coordinator and the addition of Rich Fischer (receivers), John Garrison (offensive line/tight ends), Corey Raymond (secondary) and Ross Els (linebacker), coach Bo Pelini has some new eyes and some talented football minds that will help Nebraska continue their move back up into the nation's elite in college football.
Pelini said that he has hired coaches that he is familiar with and has respect for, both professionally and personally. These new coaches may not be familiar to Husker fans, but Pelini knows their work well and feels they will bring a lot to the table when Nebraska kicks off the 2011 season this fall.
Nebraska will open the season at home on Sept. 3 against Tennessee-Chattanooga, and they kick off Big Ten play on the road at Wisconsin on Oct. 1 before Pelini's alma mater, Ohio State, comes to Lincoln for a visit on Oct. 8.

Nebraska needs help in backfield

If there is one thing fans with Nebraska football tickets got out of last week's annual Spring Game, it was this scary thought –- Nebraska needed more depth at I-back.
Rex Burkhead has made a name for himself the past couple of years in the Husker backfield, and he put on a solid performance in this spring's intrasquad scrimmage at Memorial Stadium, cranking out more than eight yards per carry after his 11-carry, 91-yard performance.
Burkhead showed the potential to be a big ground-gainer for the Husker offense this year, when you consider that more than half of his carries went for at least seven yards. You also don't see a 12-yard touchdown run he had in the game, as that play was called back on a penalty.
Burkhead showed an ability to make people miss at the point of attack, but the problem is that he is the only proven commodity in the backfield right now as the Huskers get ready for their first Big Ten campaign this fall.
Barring injury or some other unfortunate circumstance, the junior will be the man in the backfield for the Huskers this season, unless some of the walk-ons and younger players can step up and provide a second or third option for the Husker ground game this season.
You can get great tickets to see the Huskers in action this season. Whether it's season tickets or seats at any home or away game, you can get the best Nebraska football tickets anywhere at Ticket Express -- where no Nebraska football game is ever sold out.

Carnes has the pedigree for a Husker quarterback

Nebraska football fans who remember the glory days of the 1990's may experience a little deja vu if Brion Carnes gets under center.
The redshirt freshman quarterback from Bradenton, Fla., has all the moves and is showing a lot of promise during spring practices, according to the Husker football coaches.
And for those who have been around a while, his moves might remind you of another guy who played quarterback at Nebraska and, oddly enough, came to Lincoln from Bradenton, Fla.: Tommie Frazier.
Frazier, of course, led the Huskers to back-to-back national championships in 1994-1995, and now his second cousin, Carnes, is looking to follow in his relative's footsteps and do the same thing at Nebraska.
Carnes has spent the last 18 months studying the Husker offense. He did a lot of work on the scout team last year and has already impressed coaches with his skills on the field and his coachable demeanor.
His fellow players are also complimenting his work, saying that he is stepping up into the role as a leader on the field and a playmaker.
His work ethic comes from his days in Florida, where he was a four-year starter at Manatee High School and led his team to a state championship. It looked like he was going to sign with Western Kentucky, but at the last minute he decided he wanted to follow in his cousin's footsteps.
You'll get a chance to see Carnes in action at the Red-White Spring Game, and you can get Nebraska football tickets now at Ticket Express -- where no Nebraska football game is ever sold out.

Spring Game is set for April 16

Your first look at Nebraska football for the 2011 season comes up next Saturday, as the annual Nebraska Spring Game is set for April 16 at 1 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.

Third-year coach Bo Pelini has a new offensive coordinator and an optimistic outlook as the Huskers get ready for their first year in the Big Ten Conference. With some big conference games coming up this year, the Nebraska football team is getting ready for what should be a great season of college football.

Nebraska is coming off a 10-4 season where they won the North Division of the Big 12 Conference, but saw the year end in disappointing fashion with three losses in the last four games, including a loss to Washington in the Holiday Bowl.
