Nebraska heads into its most important game of the year with a makeshift defensive line as last evening we were informed that our sack leader Freedom Akinmoladun had a knee injury and would miss the next couple weeks.
Freedom makes the fifth player on the Nebraska defensive line missing time due to injury so far this season. Kevin Maurice, Kevin Williams, Vincent Valentine, and Jack Gangwish have all missed time.
It has to have Nebraska fans wondering "What's with all the injuries?".
Last year we would have blamed strength and conditioning coach James Dobson.
