2019 (Senior)
Chase Urbach, who played his senior season as a graduate student, handled all of the long snapping duties for Nebraska in 2019. He was on the watch lists for the Mannelly Award (nation's top collegiate long snapper) and the Burlsworth Trophy (most outstanding college football player who began his career as a walk-on).
2018 (Junior)
Urbach handled the snapping duties for Nebraska’s punt unit in each of the final 10 games of 2018. He made his Husker debut in his home state at No. 19 Michigan in the third game of the year. Urbach made a pair of tackles at Michigan and one against Illinois, finishing the year with three tackles. He also recovered a fumbled punt against the Illini. As the long snapper, he helped Isaac Armstrong post the ninth-best punting average (43.6) in school history.
2017 (Sophomore)
Urbach was again Nebraska’s backup long snapper as a sophomore. He did not appear in a game but was a member of the Huskers’ travel roster for all five road games.
2016 (Redshirt Freshman)
Urbach was the backup to long snapper Jordan Ober. Urbach traveled to every game, but did not see game action.
2015 (Redshirt)
Urbach sat out his first season at Nebraska as a redshirt.
Before Nebraska (Grosse Pointe South HS)
Urbach walked on at Nebraska after playing his junior and senior seasons for Tim Brandon at Grosse Pointe South High School in Grosse Pointe, Mich. Urbach earned all-conference honors in 2013 and 2014 as a long snapper and was named Special Teams Player of the Year as a senior for the Blue Devils. Urbach was a nationally ranked snapper for the class of 2015 and earned a 4.5-star rating from Chris Rubio of RubioLongSnapping.com. Before committing to the Huskers, Urbach also considered offers from Indiana State and Hawaii.
