Big time loss for the Huskers as starting cornerback Zack Bowman has been lost for the season due to a torn ACL.  It is a big loss for the Huskers because they don’t have a lot of experience in the secondary.

Look for JUCO player Andre Jones to fill into Bowman’s spot and hopefully shut down the wideouts.  He is a bigtime player and built like a horse that can punish the wide receivers both at the line and with a punishing hit.

Word from Lincoln is Bowman will either use his normal redshirt that he never used in junior college, or apply for a medical redshirt which he would not have any problems with.  Bowman was being projected as a top 20 pick in the 2007 NFL draft but look for him to come back for the Huskers after he recovers from his knee injury.
