Scott Frost and Matt Lubick both call plays for the Huskers. How’s it work? | Football



Perhaps they will be more common going forward.

“I think it will stay the same as it was late in the year,” Frost said. “I trust Matt. He’s up in the box where he can stay calm and think through things. He and I talk between series, talk about the stuff we want to get to in the series. He writes all that down, we talk about our first plays and what we want to get to on our first third down and what we want to get to on our first play in the red zone and what we want to get to in the tight red zone, what tempo plays we might want to go with.

“We then both operate off a shortlist for each series.”

Interestingly, Frost said he believes having more time on his hands during the week and during games will allow him to be more hands-on in his coaching of the quarterbacks, particularly junior starter Adrian Martinez. 

“(Quarterbacks coach Mario Verduzco) does an unbelievable job and has with all the quarterbacks he’s ever had, but if we get those few plays a game that have been mistakes for Adrian ironed out and eliminated, that (Rutgers) game, he played like a player of the year minus a couple of plays. 

“That’s going to be the challenge there.” 

Frost said Verduzco excels at preparing quarterbacks to play and improving their mechanics, but that he thinks he himself can add some practical training.
