Nebraska football offensive lineman Rocco Spindler gives bold prediction for unit
The Huskers return several important pieces on the offensive line for the 2025 season. The light itself has collectively recorded 122 career starts across seven contributors. There are also some new faces, including Spindler. Elijah Pritchett figures to factor in on the offensive line as well, after coming over from the Alabama Crimson Tide.
No matter the lineup, Spindler has a ton of confidence in his teammates.
"I believe we can win the Joe Moore Award, and I believe we will."
This unit could have a chance to win the award, especially if every member stays healthy throughout the season. They have veteran experience, and a large portion of the line is familiar with offensive line coach Donovan Raiola. That could be a recipe for success for a unit seeking consistency.

Kane Wommack updates status of injured Alabama defensive back
On Saturday afternoon, Alabama Crimson Tide defensive coordinator Kane Wommack spoke to the media for what was the first time since fall camp officially began. As part of this, Wommack, who is entering his second season as defensive coordinator at Alabama, commented on many different areas of the Crimson Tide defense, some of which were players. Among that group of players in particular was returning safety Keon Sabb, who is currently working his way back from a season-ending injury sustained last October against Tennessee. Wommack was also asked the question if Sabb has since returned to 100% following Saturday's practice as well, with the Alabama defensive coordinator saying of the returning starter: "Keon's doing a really good job," Wommack said. "He has really pushed, our training staff's done a great job with him. I think he's ahead of really every marker that we had in the offseason for him, and we weren't sure if he was going to be able to go to the level that he's going right now at the beginning of fall camp, but he is, and he's here. I don't know if I could put a number on it exactly, but I mean, he's out there playing with our guys, and so he's comfortable enough to be able to do that. Sometimes, those injuries, you just have to build a callous of coming back, and I think that's something that he's really pushing himself right now to get ready for the season." Transferring from Michigan last offseason, Sabb was a day-one starter for the Crimson Tide at safety a year ago who compiled 39 tackles and 0.5 TFL across his seven games played. Sabb also had two interceptions, both of which came in the season opener against Western Kentucky. Sabb, a redshirt junior, is expected the start for the Crimson Tide at safety once again this fall, opposite of Bray Hubbard.

Nebraska football offensive lineman Rocco Spindler gives bold prediction for unit
Nebraska football right guard Rocco Spindler has high expectations for the offensive line unit. He told the assembled media on Thursday that he believes the unit is capable of winning the Joe Moore Award. The award itself is given to the best offensive line in the country.

Nebraska offensive lineman Teddy Prochazka named to Wuerffel Trophy Watch List
Nebraska football offensive lineman Teddy Prochazka has been named to the Wuerffel Trophy Watch List. The announcement was made on social media Thursday afternoon. Prochazka has been a mainstay for the program ever since his arrival. Injuries have hampered his career in Lincoln, however, and 2024 was an unfortunate reminder. He sustained an injury during fall camp and missed the entirety of the season. His best year in terms of production came in 2023. He returned from injury and was able to start the final 10 games of the season. Now, he is looking to contribute to an offensive line that has seen an increase in depth over the last year. This nomination is certainly a reminder of what Prochazka can do off the field as well. He has been named to the Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll eight times, and was named to the Academic All-Big Ten team in 2023 and 2024. In addition to being a contributor on the field, he is a role model off it.
