Nebraska has further expanded its offensive line as the Huskers prepare for their showdown with Colorado on Saturday night.

Head football coach Matt Rhule said Thursday that Gunnar Gottula and Henry Lutovsky, who missed last week’s season opener, are ready to play against the Buffaloes. Gottula is listed on the depth chart as the No. 2 guy at right tackle behind Bryce Benhart, while Lutovsky is the No. 2 guy at left guard behind Justin Evans.

Cornerback Blye Hill also could play Saturday, Rhule said. Hill is listed as No. 3 on the depth chart but had positioned himself as a potential starter before suffering a knee injury during the Red-White spring game.

Rhule said he’s looking for a physically dominant but businesslike approach from his team in Saturday’s highly hyped matchup. He showed the team footage of Bud Crawford’s performance against Errol Spence in their recent welterweight title fight and said it’s the kind of thing he’d like to see his players emulate: methodical, stoic and “not a lot of emotion and rah rah.”

“It’s the same message we always have,” he said. “When we play, we worry about ourselves. Try to play one snap at a time. If we play differently because of who we’re playing, then we’re not really who we say we are. We play at our level, and sometimes we don’t play at that level, but the goal this week is to play at our level, and the TV cameras and the viewers shouldn’t affect that.”
