Some day we would like to see wins that go along with Nebraska football players on watch lists. That day has yet to come.

Nebraska announced that Adrian Martinez was named to the Maxwell Award watch list.

Statement from the University:

University of Nebraska quarterback Adrian Martinez earned preseason recognition on Friday morning, as he was named to the Maxwell Award watch list.
