As the Nebraska football team enters gameday against Northwestern, it got some good injury news from two contributors who the Huskers need badly to play on Saturday. The biggest, most interesting note comes with Rocco Spindler, who injured his hand so badly against Minnesota that he had to be rushed to the hospital during the game.
Nebraska just released the injury report for Saturday morning's game, and Spindler isn't listed anywhere on it. That indicates he's ready to go and return to start at right guard for the Huskers.
Rocco Spindler’s speedy recovery is a huge lift for Nebraska
The other notable absence for Nebraska is linebacker Vincent Shavers Jr.
