Nebraska defenders Kade Pietrzak and Dawson Merritt discuss their development, the Huskers’ new defense and the intentional work preparing them for bigger roles this season.

They break down how a full offseason has helped them become bigger, stronger and more comfortable within the defense, while learning to see the game beyond their individual assignments. The conversation also dives into Nebraska’s emphasis on grit, brotherhood and accountability, as well as what the younger players are learning from the veteran leaders around them.

The Husker Connection Podcast is brought to you by ALLO Fiber.
