Rhule’s Scrimmage Focus on Fundamentals | Omaha News

Nebraska’s football team hit the field hard in their first full-contact scrimmage, with Coach Matt Rhule running 120 plays to test fundamentals—not flash. The focus? Tackling, ball carriers, and catching under real contact. Defense stayed simple, no fancy schemes—just grit and execution. Rhule praised running backs for improving in QB protection and backfield catches, but stressed ball security remains critical (no fumbles reported). Now, film review begins as the team refines what worked and what didn’t. Progress is clear, but the road ahead is long—next few weeks are make-or-break for this squad.
