Wyoming coach Craig Bohl will return to his hometown of Lincoln Saturday to coach against his alma mater. But for Bohl, who played at Nebraska in the late 1970s and coached at NU for 11 seasons over two different stints, it’s strictly a business trip.

Bohl said he knows that it will be a big game and that his players will be ready.

“They had a great performance against Fresno (State),” Bohl said of Nebraska. “We know a lot about Fresno so we got our hands full going over to Lincoln.”

Bohl complimented the performance of Nebraska’s running game against Fresno State, which totaled 292 yards, and didn’t shy away from the arm of Nebraska quarterback Tommy Armstrong.

“They had a big strike throwing the ball. He’s got a real live arm,” Bohl said. “So it puts us in a really challenging position.”

Bohl also emphasized keeping Nebraska out of the red zone.
