Minnesota expects Decker back in lineup
Minnesota wide receiver Eric Decker is expected to return to the lineup this week against Iowa. Decker missed the last game at Wisconsin and was limited to a handful of plays the previous week against Michigan because of an ankle injury suffered in the game against Northwestern on Nov. 1.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Minnesota wide receiver Eric Decker is expected to return to the lineup this week against Iowa.
Decker missed the last game at Wisconsin and was limited to a handful of plays the previous week against Michigan because of an ankle injury suffered in the game against Northwestern on Nov. 1.
One of 10 finalists for the Biletnikoff Award, given annually to the best receiver in major college football, Decker still leads the Big Ten with 74 catches. The junior from Cold Spring is second in the conference with 892 yards.
Coach Tim Brewster said Decker will probably not be 100 percent, “but he’ll be close.”
The university announced Tuesday less than 1,000 tickets remained for Saturday night’s game against the Hawkeyes.
