Can't say that I've seen every snap of this game, but it's been absolutely brutal on the injury front.
Stanford loses its most consistent offense player, Micah Ford. It looked like one of those awful "lower leg" injuries. He's really been the MVP of the team, so obviously a brobdingnagian loss.
Stanford loses its QB, also to an awful lower leg injury. 'Nuff said.
Stanford loses its wunderkind OL, Ugorji, in an injury serious enough for him to ride a cart to the locker room. I didn't see what happened, but the camera's caught him limping badly on the field.
Perhaps (or perhaps not) Collin Wright, who many feel to be Stanford's most talented defensive player, suffered what at least appeared to be a less serious injury in that he was able to walk off under his own power. It's unclear to me if he ever returned.
All in one half! Horrific to see.
Not promising after the first Stanford possession, but it wasn't Brown's fault. A holding penalty had the team marching backwards. But Brown did not look especially calm or confident. HOpefully he'll settle down. I'd rather see him throw an interception than play tentatively.
I really, really wish he had gotten some playing time this season before tonight.
