Defensive Improvement

Prince or Asante just for the fact that they were both 1st Team All Conference after coming in the season as huge question marks.

Dillard, Turner and O’Hanlon are good choices as well.

 
How can you pick one? They all picked up their game. Very impressed with all of them and really excited about those that will take over next season!! If I have to pick one it is O'Hanlon.

 
Has to be Dennard. His first season as a CB (kr last year) and he was an enormous hole in the secondary... but hes just a big fast athletic monster.

actually i'd say Marvin Sanders. That guy has made a helluva secondary out of a non-existent group two years ago and a sketchy group last year. He and Carl Pelini deserve assistant coach of the year awards.

Perhaps not most improved, but biggest surprise might be Gomes. Loved the way he played this year.

And I have to give huge props to Dillard and O'Hanlon. It was fun to see Dillard talking some smack and busting out some moves last night. He deserved to have some fun and show off that swagger.

 
Easy for me, Prince. He showed a huge amount of athleticism and will be a star next year. Also heard he might be a 1st rounder next year.

 
I would say the most individual improvement had to be O'Hanlon. Asante would be my runner up. Both know how to fly around the field now.

 
I would have to say O'Hanlon just cuz everyone dogged on him so much after the Va Tech game. He has really been the sleeper of the D and I think he could be the sleeper in the NFL draft! The kids hard nosed, and bo has a lot of confidence in him!

 
Like Bo said in the post-game press conference last night:

"Matt O'Hanlon is the epitome of what Nebraska football is all about."
