Carson Wentz injury

[[cat_bracket]]

Sprained his ankle late in the third quarter. He had 11 carries for 81 yards prior to the play he was injured on, but just one for -2 yards afterwards.

I saw somewhere that it's a high (inside) ankle sprain too... Those take longer, depending on how bad it is.
Potentially bad news for ndsu, if he misses some games.

That's a huge hit. I'd expect him to sit out against Weber at least. But they have a bye this week, so he could get by just missing one game.

It never ceases to amaze me why and how coaches leave an injured player in who is unable to perform up to the level that even a so so backup should be able to exceed. Where have I seen this before? That was a rhetorical question please don't answer it.

I know what you're getting at... But that is a tough decision for the coaches. One example that comes to my mind is last year Cat Griz. Totally not ripping on JB here but I'm guessing a hobbled Dakota would have kept us in that game.

Not if, as Joe stated, "unable to perform upto the level of a so so backup".

Sometimes you even have to replace the repacemant if they get injured and can't lift their arm.

77 gets it. And what really kills me is when the injured player isn't replaced by the backup who is way more capable than just so so.

Bleskin was injured (shoulder) that game too!! McQueary goes in and touchdown on his only drive. And don't tell me it was garbage time, because um was going for a shutout there and had all their starters in.
