LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska football is back. 

February 28th marks the first practice of the 2022 for the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and they'll head into the fall with almost an entire new offensive approach. 

During the off-season, Nebraska replaced most of its offensive coaches by hiring four new offensive assistant coaches plus a special teams coordinator. 

The Huskers also have ten new Division I transfers, highlighted by quarterbacks Chubba Purdy and Casey Thompson to replace ex-Husker quarterback Adrian Martinez. 

These moves come after Nebraska posted a 3-9 record in 2021.

They open the season abroad in Dublin, Ireland against Northwestern on August 27th.
