The final practice of the spring for Nebraska football was more than just a scrimmage Saturday.
Coach Scott Frost called the event a “showcase” earlier in the week. It was also a celebration of the team and how far the community has come since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, with 36,406 fans in attendance, the largest gathering in Nebraska since most events came to an end in the spring of 2020.
“I don’t know who needed that the most, us to have the fans in there cheering for us or the fans,” Frost said. “The stadium wasn’t full but, man, there was a lot of people in there. The sooner we get back to normal, the better for everybody.

There is no live tackling in the first half. Most people will be watching personnel groupings and trying to get clues at to the likely depth chart going into summer. There won’t be much shown in the way of offensive plays, but hopefully some great individual efforts.
First Quarter
Marvin Scott was called on first to carry the ball.
Logan Smothers is fast.
Quinton Newsome was Cam Taylor-Bitt’s running mate at cornerback for the Red team.
There is a concerted effort to get Omar Manning involved. He made an early appearance with a nice catch and almost another huge one, but bobbled it at the last second.

There were signs. Interstate 80 traffic heading southwest from Omaha was busy. As you got into Lincoln, there were more signs. Lots of signs. Approaching Memorial Stadium, something seemed familiar, almost comforting. The signs said things like, “Game Parking $25.” Or, “Lot Full.”
After a year of pandemic-induced isolation, it appeared that life was returning to the Haymarket. At least, it looked like the early stages of reinvigoration.
Once they made their way into the stadium and spread out, the crowd of 36,406 looked more like a skimpy layer of red frosting on a sugar cookie than the iconic Red Sea that paints Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoons in the fall. The crowd came in below its 50% capacity limit and fell well short of the 47,000-plus, who showed up for Alabama’s spring game the week before, but they filled parking lots, bars and restaurants, bringing signs of life to downtown Lincoln.
