Orth is starting tonight. Bazelak is dressed but has a wrap on his right leg.

Brutal news.

We were thin at QB...now we're REALLY thin

I'm hoping this is precautionary. No reason to play a hurt player especially a qb with a leg injury to play tonight with ohio next week. Rest it up and get Orth some reps. Please let Anderson play some

I’m assuming it’s precautionary. I think Orth started for McDonald in the Mississippi State game last year, in a similar situation.

Take care of the football, kill the clock, and come home healthy.

Really upset Bazelek isn't playing. We needed him.

To me, that’s a catch. I don’t know how long he has to control it, but he catches the ball and bounces off the ground twice before losing it as he rolls over.

Bazelek not playing is exactly the reason you don’t want Loeffler as your coach. Just hides the injury all week and now he’s got his excuse if it gets ugly.

That third down conversion would have been a big help. At least w3 came to play on offense

Definitely not a catch to me, but I'm more an NFL guy so but sure how the rules differ.

Didn’t Baze get hurt late last week? I seem to remember him limping off and Orth coming in for him.

Yeah our program is not in a place to have a prayer of competing with the upper echelon of college football. We may never be again.
