Jahmal Banks - Scores in opener Banks gathered in all four targets for 61 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 40-7 victory over UTEP.
Impact Banks' touchdown came on a 21-yard strike from quarterback Dylan Raiola in the closing moments of the first half, extending Nebraska's lead heading into the half. The senior receiver put together a productive performance on a day in which things came relatively easy for the Nebraska offense, and though fellow receiver Isaiah Neyor paced the team in receptions and yards, Banks will likely continue to be a top option for Raiola moving forward. Banks will have an opportunity to further establish himself as a top receiver when the Cornhuskers host Colorado on Saturday.

Isaiah Neyor - Shines in season opener Neyor hauled in 6 of 8 targets for 121 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 40-7 victory against UTEP.
Impact On a day in which the Nebraska offense put points on the scoreboard in bunches, Neyor led the team in receptions and yards as he crossed the century mark on the day. The senior receiver also found the end zone on a 59-yard connection with quarterback Dylan Raiola in the second quarter, stretching the team's lead. Neyor will hope to keep the positive momentum going during Saturday's home matchup against Colorado.

Dante Dowdell - Scores in season opener Dowdell recorded eight rushes for 55 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 40-7 victory over UTEP.
Impact Though the sophomore running back recorded just eight attempts, he made the most of his opportunities, averaging 6.9 YPC and finding the end zone in the first quarter. Dowdell's touchdown came on a nine-yard scamper to open up the scoring on the day. The Cornhuskers split carries fairly evenly, with four backs receiving between six and 11 attempts on the day, indicating that they may be looking at a committee-style approach to the backfield, at least to start the season. Dowdell's next chance to separate himself from his fellow backs will come when Nebraska hosts Colorado on Saturday.

Gabe Ervin Jr. - Scores twice in opener Ervin Jr. recorded six carries for 24 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 40-7 victory versus UTEP.
Impact Ervin first found the end zone on a three-yard run in the second quarter, with his second score coming on a one-yard push in the third period. Despite the redzone success, the junior running back totaled just six attempts on the day, indicating that his role within the offense may not be as secure as he may hope. Ervin's next chance to earn opportunities will come against Colorado on Saturday.

Dylan Raiola - Solid day in debut Raiola completed 19 of 27 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 40-7 win against UTEP.
Impact The talented freshman put up a productive day against UTEP, throwing a pair of touchdowns for his first collegiate scores. The first of his touchdown passes came on a 59-yard connection with Isaiah Neyor in the second quarter, while his second score came on a 21-yard strike to Jahmal Banks just before halftime. The former five-star recruit will look to keep the positive momentum going when the Cornhuskers host Colorado on Saturday.

Malachi Coleman - Healthy; Redshirt candidate Coleman did not see the field during Saturday's 40-7 win over UTEP, and remains a likely redshirt candidate for the Huskers, Amie Just of the Lincoln Journal Star reports.
Impact A whopping 107 players saw the field for Nebraska during the Cornhuskers' season opener according to Mitch Sherman of The Athletic, and despite head coach Matt Rhule assuring reporters that Coleman was healthy, he was not one of them. The 6-foot-5 sophomore wideout, who tallied eight receptions for 139 yards and a touchdown in 2023, seems likely to preserve his eligibility and redshirt this season.
