The short-handed Huskers will need a scrappy performance to stick with an experienced and talented Hoosier squad. Nebraska suffered yet another injury when guard Ruby Porter went down vs Creighton with an ankle injury. She did not return to the game, but was on the sidelines in a boot. Trinity Brady continues to rehab an ankle injury and is considered ‘day-to-day’. If either of those players is available I would not expect either to be able to contribute many minutes.
Sophomore Nailah Dillard underwent season-ending surgery a few days ago while MiCole Cayton’s timeline is still uncertain. That could leave the Huskers with only seven available players.
