Episode Details

Anthony Colandrea, Nebraska’s new QB and former UNLV star, is already a Maxwell Award preseason watchlist standout—bringing elite stats, dual-threat prowess, and championship pedigree to Lincoln. With 33 career starts, over 8,600 all-purpose yards, and 61 touchdowns, he’s one of the most experienced QBs in college football—and now one of just 17 Big Ten players on the list. Last season at UNLV, he shredded defenses with 3,400+ passing yards, 23 TDs, 690+ rushing yards, and 10 more scores—all while averaging over 200 passing yards in 11 games. His ability to extend plays and lead high-scoring offenses could transform Nebraska’s struggling offense. To make the final cut, he’ll need to keep dominating and help the Huskers compete nationally. Watchlist semifinalists announced Nov. 10, finalists Nov. 24, winner Dec. 10—with the trophy handed out March 13 in Atlanta.
