PICK OF THE WEEK April 16 Red–White Spring Game Memorial Stadium, Stadium Dr. and T Street, Lincoln 1 p.m., $10, huskers.com What will we learn about the suped-up but more simplistic Nebraska offense on Saturday?

These are the practice plays that we’ll be dissecting and discussing all off-season. A ticket is your entry into the summer Huskers conversation, and if nothing else the annual scrimmage represents your only chance to tailgate outside Memorial Stadium until mighty Tennessee-Chattanooga comes to town on Sept. 3. That’s a long time to wait for some beers and brats.
