If you’re guessing it’s eating at senior wide receiver Jordan Westerkamp to miss his first career game with Nebraska, you’d be guessing correctly.

“I have class with him,” Nebraska senior wide receiver Brandon Reilly said. “He’s like, ‘Yeah, I think they might let me try to play.’ I’m like, ‘Dude, shut up, you can’t even stand up.’

“That’s just the guy he is, though. He always wants to be out there with us.”

No. 10 Nebraska (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten Conference) will play Saturday at Indiana (3-2, 1-1) without Westerkamp, who’s out with a back injury he suffered in the Huskers’ last game, Oct.
