LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) _ After an unexpected day off, the Nebraska football team returned to the practice field Thursday with a 2 1/2-hour workout indoors.

Coach Bill Callahan gave the team the day off Wednesday.

Defensive Coordinator Kevin Cosgrove says you could tell the team missed a day of practice. But he says players worked hard and had a lot of energy.

The Cornhuskers have been working to stay hydrated as hot temperatures plague preseason practice.

Nebraska will resume practice Friday, with its second two-a-day of the season.
