Nebraska is no longer under the microscope as the league's newcomer. The Huskers seem to be enjoying their experience at Big Ten Media Days and they hope they can keep rolling those good times into the season which begins in just over a month.

"We had a good summer, very confident going into Fall Camp, we had a good spring, we transitioned well, I know we're excited to get going," Will Compton said.

"We've got a week left and we're hitting in stride. We're really looking forward to putting on the pads, we feel like we've got a great team this year, we've got potential, but we've got to go to work," senior running back Rex Burkhead said.

"We can't take days off this year, it has to be every day, and from every little thing that they're doing, we can't pick and choose. I think our players understand that if you don't come to play each and every Saturday, you're going to get humbled real quick," Nebraska head coach Bo Pelini commented.
