LINCOLN - If Nebraskans want to see the Huskers play football this fall Governor Pete Ricketts has two words of advice, "stay home".

Ricketts stated earlier this week that April will be a "very tough month" for the state as COVID-19 numbers are expected to peak in a few weeks.

For sports to return, the spread of the coronavirus needs to get under control, and Ricketts continues to stress that the best way to do that is to follow all directed health measures and social-distancing guidelines.

Guidelines include staying at home if sick, remaining six feet away from others if out in public, and keeping public gatherings to ten people or less.
