Go Big Read: Nebraska football players have gotten bigger and other kernels

The Nebraska football players really have gotten bigger over the offseason, if the media guides can be believed and other kernels about the Huskers.

Big Ten Media days are officially over and that means the college football season is even closer. In one week, the Nebraska football team will kick off their fall camp and it’s a quick march to the September 1 season opener from there.
