Is Anthony Colandrea the Unexpected Savior Nebraska Football Has Been Waiting For?
Colandrea threw for a career-high 3,459 passing yards and 23 touchdowns with just nine interceptions at UNLV in 2025. He beat out Michigan transfer Alex Orji to win the starting job and ended the year as the Mountain West Offensive Player of the Year.
Although Colandrea has all the accolades, Lateef is technically the incumbent starter. The former four-star recruit took over for the Cornhuskers after Raiola suffered a season-ending leg injury, guiding them to a win over UCLA in his first career start. Lateef is just 1-3 as a starter, but ended his freshman season with a promising 904 passing yards, five touchdowns and only one interception in seven games.
