Heads up, Husker fan. Only nine days remain between you and a Nebraska football game.
The Huskers open the season under the Thursday night lights at Minnesota on Aug. 31. Since we've already discussed Marcus Satterfield's offense, let's take a look at Tony White's defense. By now, some of you are probably tired of hearing the three numbers 3-3-5 connected together.
The Husker defense will look a little different than in year's past, but White is hoping it's a defense that makes fans proud and, above all, stops Big Ten offenses.
