Nebraska right guard Micah Mazzccua will be available to play Friday against Illinois after all. Reversing what he had said Monday, Nebraska football head coach Matt Rhule said after Wednesday's practice that the transfer from Florida "will be dressed and ready" but Henry Lutovsky will start.

Nebraska football coach Matt Rhule confirmed that right guard Micah Mazzccua is available for Friday’s game against Illinois. Henry Lutovsky will still start at the position, but Mazzccua will be available to play.

Here's a look back at Matt Rhule's past turnarounds at Temple and Baylor from Year 1 to Year 2 as Nebraska football is out to its best start since 2016:

Things took an ugly turn for Matt Rhule’s Nebraska Cornhuskers. Coming off a heroic win against Northern Iowa, never in their wildest dreams the Huskers fans had imagined losing to Illinois. But fate got them really bad when their touchdown got snubbed and fell prey to what they believed was blatant referee bias.

Matt Rhule knows how to rebuild college football programs. He's done it at Temple and Baylor. Nebraska's rise this season is just his latest success.
