Chinander: Senior class always a part of this team

Posted

The Nebraska seniors will head out of the tunnel for one final time at Memorial Stadium Saturday. 

While the seniors won't be on the field next season, Defensive Coordinator Erik Chinader says they will always be a part of the Huskers program. 

"It's kind of bittersweet to have them go the last time without them seeing what they created," Erik Chinander said. "I hope they come back. They can come back any time, any practice, any game, because they are always a part of this team no matter where it goes and I hope they realize how big of a part they are going to have in that."

The Huskers are expecting Michigan State to run two quarterbacks. Ricky Lombardi and Brian Lewerke have both played recently for MSU.

Many of the Huskers are comparing Michigan State's style of play to that of Wisconsin. Nebraska played the Badgers earlier this season. 

Nebraska players are preparing in practice for snowy conditions Saturday morning.
