What’s Wrong With Anthony Colandrea?

Nebraska at The Voice of College Football/October 30, 2026

In this in-depth Nebraska football All-22 film room breakdown, we dissect starting quarterback Anthony Colandrea’s pocket presence, throwing mechanics, and progression speed. While Colandrea provides playmaking versatility, tape analysis reveals recurring breakdowns when facing simulated pressures and disciplined edge containment. Reviewing the Indiana matchup, we highlight how Colandrea leaves clean pockets prematurely, cuts off field progressions, and fails to align his hips through his throwing base, missing backside dig routes and checkdowns. We break down the biomechanics of footwork, hip squareness, and why getting sped up in the pocket is holding back the Huskers' downfield passing efficiency.
