It was a spring “game” like no other. Nebraska finished up spring football practice by hosting a roping contest, a strong man competition, a tractor pull and a wing-eating contest. There was also live football mixed in. The scrimmaging was only for back-ups, not for players like Dylan Raiola or Jacory Barney. A smaller-than usual spring game crowd which was estimated between 7,000-10,000 fans. Unlike years past, the festivities were not televised. Football was just one event which made up the first “Husker Games” which included a garage sale, food trucks, a soccer game and a volleyball match.
