It's game week, and that means it's time for our first Mike Riley news conference...and the first question comes from that Oregon Tribune article that mentioned that five Huskers would be suspended for the BYU game. Riley declined once again to say who will be sitting this Saturday.
Nebraska coach Mike Riley says he's not ready to reveal the identity of the suspended defensive starter. "I'll tell you later in the week."

He has a reason why he's still keeping mum...
Riley said he wanted to allow suspended players to practice unfettered by extra media attention.
