Return to the Big Red Zone: Inside the Huskers' Winning 2016 Season (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780986434129)

After following and reporting on the Huskers' disappointing 2015 season in his book "That Guy's Wearing Red, Too!" the author was intrigued to see first-hand what the second year of Head Coach Mike Riley's regime would bring for the proud Cornhusker program and its fans. Would the players bounce back from the Huskers' first losing season since 2007? How would Senior Quarterback Tommy Armstrong respond during his second year under the Riley scheme? Did Riley have what it takes to make Nebraska great again? There was only one way to find out. Just as he had in 2015, the author witnessed and reported on every 2016 game from Opening Day through to Bowl Day either in person or at watch parties with expatriate Nebraska fans in different cities and states. In between football games he managed to travel to a number of towns in Nebraska where he talked with residents who reminisced about their favorite memories of living in Nebraska and following their Huskers. The result is a book that not only recounts the 2016 football season but also reveals that Nebraska fans are every bit as gracious in victory as they are in defeat.
