>> Running back Maurice Washington was not on the most recent depth chart, although he remained on the roster. However, Frost confirmed that he is “not part of the team right now” heading into the week. As for the future?

“I think it’s still to be determined,” Frost said. “He won’t play this week. I don’t see him being part of our plans in the immediate future. The further out future we’ll have to determine”

Frost said Nebraska has standards that are asked of the players. If they’re not upheld, it doesn’t matter who the player is but they are gone if those standards are broken. With that said, Frost was not willing to call it an indefinite suspension at this time.

Does he remain in classes?

“As far as I know,” Frost said.

However, Washington didn’t practice last week and he didn’t practice today.

Frost also said he wouldn’t have handled the Washington situation any differently. He wished it could have turned out differently though.

"We're going to help as long as they can be helped,” he said.

>> Frost confirmed that the Huskers are wearing the alternate uniforms this week.

“I told the team this morning that if we're going to wear them that they better show up and play with an attitude that makes the Blackshirt alumni proud,” he said.

He also said hat there’s no specific reason to this week for wearing the uniforms, but joked that Nebraska is running out of home games.

Series History
The schools have met 20 times in series history, but just once as Big Ten opponents. The Huskers defeated Indiana, 27-22, in Bloomington in 2016.

• Indiana holds a 9-8-3 edge in the all-time series, including a 7-5-2 lead in the series in Lincoln.

• Nebraska has won each of the past five meetings between the schools, including four straight seasons from 1975 to 1978.

• Among Big Ten schools, Indiana was Nebraska's third-most common opponent before the Huskers joined the league in 2011.

Indiana by at least 3 scores with UNL's injuries.   Team needs to get healthy so they can gain confidence again.
