All year round, former Husker and NFL veteran Adam Carriker is taking the pulse of Husker Nation. In the "Carriker Chronicles" video series, he breaks down the latest NU news, upcoming opponents, player updates and recruiting information, and he offers his insight into the X's and O's and more.
On this episode presented by XCancer, Adam shares some final thoughts on Zac Taylor, the Cincinnati Bengals and the Super Bowl. That then leads him into a discussion of the "core players" on the Nebraska football team, the guys that are key to leadership and building a culture necessary to win games.
