Nebraska certainly had an eventful, if not overly successful, season during Scott Frost’s first year with the team.

The arrival of Frost certainly sparked excitement around the program. The Cornhuskers were hoping to turn the page quickly with positive results and a strong season.

Unfortunately, the team would start the season 0-6 before a win over Minnesota. Though the Cornhuskers finished the season 4-8, they did go 4-2 over the final six games. That stretch included a win over Michigan State and narrow losses to Ohio State and Iowa.

Nebraska certainly grew under Frost down the stretch, raising expectations of what fans can expect in 2019. As the Cornhuskers head into the offseason, Nebraska football released the team awards for 2018:

Senior WR Stanley Morgan Jr. was named Offensive MVP after recording 70 catches for 1,004 yards and 7 TDs. Senior LB Mohamed Barry was named Defensive MVP after recording 105 tackles, 10 TFL, and two sacks.

Morgan, RB Devine Ozigbo, and DL Mick Stoltenberg were also among senior award winners. You can read about the full list of winners here.
