Nebraska suffers major offensive line blow after loss to Minnesota

The loss to Minnesota on Friday night was bad enough for the Nebraska football team. What's worse is that the Huskers emerged from the disappointing showing with some serious injury problems on an offensive line that has already struggled mightily in 2025.

The Huskers surrendered 9 sacks to the Golden Gophers, which was a school record for PJ Fleck's squad. At least part of the reason why the Huskers' front was so porous is that NU lost guard Rocco Spindler early to injury. At the same time, tackle Elijah Pritchett was ejected in the first half for targeting.
