Red Report: Freshman Bryant could see increased role this week

One Husker running back's injury might lead to more opportunities for a true freshman. Although the truth of it is Mike Riley was already thinking about getting Tre Bryant more involved anyway.

With sophomore Devine Ozigbo "doubtful" for Saturday's game against Indiana due to an ankle injury, the Huskers might need to call more on Bryant and Mikale Wilbon to help senior Terrell Newby, who is coming off a 140-yard rushing performance on 27 carries.
