Here's a picture of the AAPC from last night. If you get lucky, you might be able to see the live webcam. It doesn't seem to work all the time. Plus, it might take a little bit of playing around with the "video format".

From the Northern Star: Notes on the Huskies

Sophomore defensive end Craig Rusch was named Third-Team Freshman All-America by CollegeFootballNews.com last fall, but hasn't seen the field in 2006.

On Aug. 28 Rusch was stepped on in practice. The wound he received on his right leg eventually became infected. NIU football coach Joe Novak said he is unsure when Rusch will be able to return.

The Hilbert, Wisc. native led NIU with six sacks last season while only starting four games and playing in seven.

From the Northern Star: Sizing up the Huskies

Quarterback

B+

NIU head coach Joe Novak has a dilemma: one starting spot for two capable quarterbacks.

So far this season, experience has prevailed over young talent, and senior Phil Horvath has been named the starter over sophomore Dan Nicholson. But Huskie fans shouldn't be surprised to see Nicholson taking the field from time to time throughout the season, just as he did at Ohio State.

From the Chicago Sun-Times: Huskies' D-line getting depleted

Holycross made the third start of his career last week at Ohio State, replacing Craig Rusch (infected foot). Rusch also is expected to miss the Ohio game, and nose guard Adam Schroeder (ankle) is doubtful. That would leave Novak and interior line coach Jeff Phelps with a rotation of seniors Brad Benson and Eric Pittman and sophomore Alex Krutsch, a former walk-on.
