Anyone watching on TV see what happened? Any idea knee or ankle?

To me it didn’t appear to be either, but there wasn’t much in the way of replay. It didn’t look like he was rolled up on - his foot went straight into the turf at the end of the play, so I wonder if it may be turf toe. That’s a total guess, no mention on the broadcast of specifics.

Hopefully nothing serious for any of our running backs but goes to show you how quickly you can go from loaded to depleted in this game. Williams and Clark also left the game gimpy.

Peoples reported to be on crutches after the game. That means absolutely nothing in the long term, however.

I'll post about this in the Moose lodge...

On his Snapchat he posted a picture of his leg. From ankle to thigh it was wrapped in a big brace.

He later posted that there is no news yet on what the injury is yet. Most likely a knee injury.

He came out of the medical tent on crutches with ice wrapped on his knee. His face - pain, frustration, disappointment. Hope it can be fixed with therapy, but really glad we have a house full of excellent running backs.

Desmond Franklin hurt too. Not good

Just before the end of the game, Peoples was dancing (using his crutches a little) on the sideline, all smiles. He did have weight on both legs while shuffling around. With that said, it looked ACL related to me, hurts like hell when you tear it, but after a little while, you can walk on it, just not a lot of knee stability

Was so pumped last year knowing this kid would be back and still considered a Freshman and ready to set our offense on fire for the next 4 years. Have we seriously already lost him for the season? Any updates? We have good RB's behind Evans, but none that can reach the potential ceiling of Peoples

In the postgame conference Drink said we'd know the status on Monday. Sure was hyped on watching him live up to his potential. Wish the best for him and the others that were injured.

Have you not seen Harrington run? Dude is violent and more than capable of toting the load.

Next man up. This can happen to any player at any time.

Man didn't Harrington look nice! He was running hard looking like he is out to prove some things!

Looked in the paper this morning. Harrington averaged 8 yards a carry, and that was not all in garbage time either.

It’s Camerun.

Sounds like he is out for the season

Two things that are both true:

1) Cam Peoples brings a size/speed combo that no one else on our roster (and presumably few others at the G5 level) can match.

2) If he’s done for the year, we still have at least three really good running backs.

Torn ACL. Hopefully he recovers quickly

That’s what I heard as well
