"INJURY UPDATE: Clawson said sophomore running back Jamel Martin suffered knee ligament damage in the win over Miami and will not play again this season.

Martin is the sixth Falcon to be lost for the season, joining defensive linemen Jairus Campbell and Hunter Maynard, wide receivers Jermal Hosley and Heath Jackson, and senior rover Tim Moore, who suffered a broken foot.

Senior linebacker Dwayne Woods and junior tight end Alex Bayer each wore a yellow "do not hit" jersey while participating in practice Wednesday, and Clawson is optimistic both will be available for the UMass game.

Junior running back Jordan Hopgood, who missed the last two games, practiced Wednesday and is available, as is senior wide receiver Bart Tanski".

That REALLY sucks that Martin is now lost for the year...he is so effective in relief. Andre Givens is gonna get more reps behind Samuel and Pettigrew and it's a good thing Hopgood is back now. Wow, 6 guys lost for the year.

Our injury report and in my mind missing Branchflower is huge.

Sucks that we're down so many guys, but I think we have enough talent on this team that it won't become too much of a problem.

If BG's D comes out in full force, UMASS will have some troubles moving the ball against our defense.

Thanks for the link, Steve...
