Nebraska High School Football’s Returning All-State Football Players for 2020.

Here is a list of all the players chosen for All-State honors in 2019. There are four media outlets that publish All-State football teams each year. They are the Omaha World-Herald (Stu Pospisil), The Lincoln Journal-Star (Ron Powell), Huskerland Prep Report (Bob Jensen) and myself (Bobby Mills-1000 Yard Guy).

If a player was chosen by two, three or all four of us, nothing will be noted after the honoree’s name. If only one media outlet chose a player for All-State honors, that media source is listed.

I love the diversity here. Between the four of us, all with our own various reasons and ideas, many more young men have the opportunity to be chosen for this elite status and that is the name of the game.

Following this list I have added the 2019 Omaha All-Metro Conference 2020 Returnees and the Final 2019 Ratings from the Omaha World-Herald.
