    Michael Cauble tweeted Blue left the field on crutches. I missed the game, how serious is his injury and does anyone know how long we'll be without him?

    I might have missed it, but I didn't see Blue get injured.

    I saw when it happened. He went around the left side and appeared to 'hyperextend' as he jumped over some players. Also, where was Ware?

    Tigerbait.com says it's a left knee injury.

    Tough to see Blue get injured. I hope it is not serious. Jeremy Hill (true freshman) saw time as a result of the injury and got his 1st TD as a Tiger.

    Ware has a bruised thigh. I believe with Blue's injury that's why we saw Hill. I thought it would have been a good idea to redshirt Hill because of our depth at RB. But if Blue is going to be out for an extended period of time I can see why CLM would have wanted to get Hill in.

    Ware still having hamstring issues and staff decided to rest him and a handful of others. Not sure what the injury to Blue is yet.

    Yes, he did.

    10 carries, 61 yards, 6.1 YPC, 2 TDs.

    Not bad for seeing the ball for the 1st time.

    It looked like he hyperextended his knee and that is really unfortunate for him and us. He was the most versatile back that we had. This is looking like a rough year from an injury stand point. Not many teams would be able to withstand the losses we have had thus far. The only reason we have been able to still play at a high level is the outstanding job CLM has done recruiting to our needs.
