All-American OG Spencer Long Out for Season

[Brasky]

Looking like a strong possibility he played his final snap at Nebraska. Bo saying MRI "didn't look good".

Hope he recovers well.

MCL or LCL......whichever it is on the inside of the knee.....that's what looked to me to be the ligament that received the punishment

This is real bad for the line and whoever is QB, I lost count how many times a guy came through completely unblocked on the right side as soon as Long went down. Moody better get his shit together, he just got owned by the worst team we will face going forward

MCL is my guess

Purdue actually has a pretty decent front 7.

I do agree though... They might have a starter come over to that side or find someone new, because let me tell you, Moudy made me miss Long every single damn snap he played.

There's a clear skill level gap there.

I hate to be debbie downer, but this could put a serious dent in our offense.

Don't want to jump to conclusions, but you saw what happened as soon as Long was out. Shit wasn't pretty.

Very fortunate we have a bye to teach Moody how to play football, better yet maybe set up one of the JC guys, could it be worse than a guy who doesn't block at all and gets dick chopped off by a Freshman DE

He really was the anchor. Very unfortunate if he doesn't return. All-Amercan, team captain. His absence will be noticed for sure.

I can tell you with certainty, he was BENDING the knee on the sidelines. It might have hurt him when he bent the knee, but I never saw him twinge. But I definitely saw the knee flexing.

Any news about Burtch? at halftime when he was walking out I said to my wife, "Sam Burtch looks hurt."

it could have been stomach flu, he looked like I usually do when my gut is acting up. I had met his parents at the hotel and we talked. When he was walking off I told him his parents said to tell him hi.

It was nice seeing our qb comfortable in the pocket

he got plowed over by enunwa on that one play...not sure if he was shaken up from that

Burtch went out holding his wrist

Damn chop blocks need to be outlawed.

 

[HuskerinBig10]

Getting into the cart

In the cart driving by. He did not say a word. Came out later with ICE wrapped around the knee, but still in his uniform.

After halftime, he was in street clothes.
