Report: Nebraska starting QB Armstrong not practicing with team ahead of bowl game versus Tennessee
The Tennessee Volunteers are slated to play the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the Music City Bowl.
Nebraska starting quarterback Tommy Armstrong is a dynamic player. Much like UT QB Josh Dobbs, he can hurt the opposition with both his arm and legs. He would be considered a challenge for the Vols’ defense to stop.
However, it doesn’t look like he’ll be squaring off versus Tennessee on Dec. 30 in Nashville.
According to a report from Omaha Sports Insider, Armstrong has not been practicing with the team during bowl preparations. He’s been plagued by a hamstring injury dating back to the middle of November.
As such, Nebraska is preparing for this game under the assumption that Ryker Fyfe will start. Fyfe is a redshirt senior, and has only two career starts.
I mean unless we can get our defense together two career starts is all the experience he needs to rip us a new one.
Im not sure about the right direction “on the field” …fumble recovery in end zone in ot, and a hail mary, or it would be 6-6…,,butch is 0-4 vs bama, 1-3 vs florida, 2-2 vs vandy, 0-8 vs sec west…29-21 at Tennessee, 14-18 SEC record. 5-15 vs ranked teams. 11 of those career 29 wins are impressive wins over Utah st, Arkansas st, Chattanooga, Austin Peay, Western Kentucky, South Alabama, Ohio, Tennessee Tech, Bowling Green, Western Carolina, and North Texas. Merry Christmas Butch. You’ll get paid, but we need someone who can get the job done. This 4 year resume isnt getting it done .
Great, a back-up…We’re Toast…
Their “backup” shared a ton of playing time with Armstrong, and has been the starter for the past few weeks. So maybe we have a shot? As long as our defense never steps on the field we have a shot at least.
Just imagine butch jones on the sideline next year. lol. scary and sad. the development of players=strike 1 in game adjustments=strike 2 hiring your great grandpa debord=strike 3
