Huskers Ready for Heat From Bulls, Mother Nature
Temperatures in the upper 90s are forecast for Saturday, and coach Scott Frost says the team's pregame warmups will be modified accordingly.
"We're going to adjust warmups a little bit and make sure we don't spend too much before the game," Frost said after Thursday's practice. "We've got the guys as prepped for that as we possibly can. I hope the fans take care of themselves too."
As for the Huskers' opponent, the Buffalo Bulls, he said: "They really run and hit on defense. We only have one game tape to go on, but they looked great in that first game. Our guys are prepped for a battle."
Frost offered nothing specific about the status of wide receiver Oliver Martin and tight end Travis Vokolek but said they are "really close" to returning to action.
