Huskers Prepare for Cyclones

Lincoln -- Coach Frank Solich met with the media at today’s press conference and again briefly after Tuesday’s practice. The Huskers enjoyed beautiful fall weather, working out in full pads in the stadium, to prepare for Saturday’s game with Iowa State. Near the end of practice, senior Husker fullback DeAntae Grixby suffered an injury.

"We don’t normally discus injuries, but we all feel so badly for DeAntae," Solich said. "He has had such bad luck. We hope it isn’t serious, but we’ll see."

Solich said the team seemed a little tired and had to "work at it, but got a lot done" in the two-hour practice period.
