LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) _ Larry the Cable Guy visited the Nebraska football team after practice Thursday as the team started wrapping up its fall practices.

The well-known comedian is a Nebraska native who's known as a big Cornhusker fan.

``He's a Husker through and through,'' said Nebraska coach Bill Callahan. ``It's been good to have him out here visiting with our players because it relaxes them and they have fun and he cracks a few jokes.''

The Huskers practiced for two and a half hours in preparing to move into game week workouts.

Nebraska hosts its season-opener against Nevada on Sept. 1.

The Huskers will practice through the weekend and has invited Nebraska students to its Sunday practice.
