Missed the Nevada Game. Couple Questions

[CreepCreep2014]

So I missed my first ND game in about 10yrs....Family function that day. I was looking for a Post Game thread but don't see one. So a couple questions is you don't mind??

1- How did Crawford get hurt? It seems these major injuries are happening at home. So curious how he did it.

2-Following the game on Twitter it seems like ND was moving the ball and scoring, them all of a sudden it stopped. Was this due to the QB change?

Don't worry, I'll be back this Sat night to start my new streak!!

GO IRISH!!

1. He made a play to strip a ball after getting beat deep. He jumped up either in celebration or frustration on the play. When he came down he seemed to tear his Achilles.

2. The offense actually started incredibly slow. Too many penalties and overall sloppy play. They started clicking at the end of the first and put up 25 points in the second quarter. Zaire actually led them on a scoring drive ending with Folston's TD. After that it was mostly backups and unimaginative play calling that slowed things down in the 4th quarter.

So another knee injury from jumping up and celebrating like last yr. I swear that field is cursed...LOL.

Thanks for the info. It seemed like ND was moving the ball from the start...

i'm not so sure that's what happened, at least when i saw it. i think he was hurt when he went down. he then hopped up on it and realized he was hurt. he certainly wasn't celebrating anything.

I thought he was more frustrated than celebrating. I don't think you hop like that when you tear your Achilles. You go down pretty quick, which is what he did AFTER the jump.

A look at the play that injured Notre Dame's Shaun Crawford

Looks like he injured it while falling to the ground. He seems to stomp with his right leg after the play, and then goes to grab his left as if he realized it was injured.

I don't think this injury came during a celebration. He jumped up off the ground, but as soon as he landed it was obvious that he was hurt. It looked like he caught his foot in the turf defending the pass. The sad thing was that the play we nullified due to a penalty. This kid's career has been jinxed from the start. I hope he recovers from this. This should qualify him for a sixth year of eligibility.

I think I've hit every home game for the past 8 years, but I will miss MSU for a family function. Can someone please tell young women that getting married during football season is a mistake. (Unless you want everyone at the reception crowded around a TV or an iPad.)

If you watched the replay when he was going down after making the play it looked like his foot got caught up and twisted a little which was what I thought cause it.
