LINCOLN, Neb. —

Coach Matt Rhule discussed Dylan Raiola's injury and the play that caused the sophomore to go down.

He said the trainers didn't want Raiola to go back onto the field, saying he couldn't run, but the QB wanted to go back into the game.

Rhule said he told Raiola that he wasn't going to put him back in.

"I love you too much to ask you to play when you're hurt like this," he said.

Rhule said Raiola was in a lot of pain, and he has "a history with that ankle."

As for TJ Lateef, Rhule said he has a "bright, bright, bright future."
