Brian Carlwell played, so it looks like he will not redshirt as the article in today's PJ Star discussed.

Jamar Smith injured his ankle and left the game just about 3 minutes into the 2nd half and didn't return. It is being described as just a sprain.

Smith is going to be out 4-6 due to his high ankle sprain.

This is bad news for us. Rebuilding years are tough as it is. I think hoping for another B-10 title may be out of the question.

This is bad news for us.

Why is that bad news for us?

This is bad news for us.

Why is that bad news for us?

Exactly.

On the contrary, this is good news for us.

Ahhh... ok, but I don't wish things like this on anybody. I truly wish everyone remained healthy all the time and stayed away from trouble all the time.

But like I have said before, there are 2 key elements that could seriously hurt a team's season:

"Injuries and Felonies"

UIUC has one under the "Felonies" category with McBride. Now they are getting hit with the "Injuries".

As much as I am NOT a fan for UIUC, I am two-fold NOT the fan of "Injuries and Felonies".

I empathize with UIUC.

Good luck Orange and Blue, get 'solid' soon.
