Nebraska Offensive Line Proves Itself Ahead of Fiesta Bowl
Nebraska center Aaron Graham praises the line as a stronger pass protection unit with four new starters. The Cornhuskers, ranked No. 1, ran for 399 yards a game and allowed zero sacks, aided by Ahman Green’s freshmen rushing record and Lawrence Phillips earning the start after recent scrimmages. Florida’s defensive line, led by Mark Campbell’s return, faces injuries with five players out as they seek stronger run defense.

Cardinals fire Buddy Ryan after 4-12 season
Arizona owner Bill Bidwill dismissed Buddy Ryan as head coach and general manager after a 37-13 loss to the Dallas Cowboys left the Cardinals with a 4-12 record. Bidwill cited flat play and season-long results rather than fan or media reaction as the reason for the firing. Ryan had two years left on his contract despite his bold “winner in town” branding and tense relationships with some staff and observers.
