@matt_schneidman: Injury report not out yet, but sophomore hybrid Erv Philips is on crutches, seeming to favor his left foot.

But I saw him with an ice pack on his knee coming out for the 2nd half? Did he get injured during practice this week?

I think I hate this sport.

Terrible if true. Strickland and Perkins, next man up.

These kids have access to round the clock PT. He'll be ready to play.

Well... crap.

Phillips will not make or break us in the next 2 weeks. surprised how much he played after getting hurt but he seemed to run well even while limping around.

Rub some Robitussin on it. He good.

If he ends up out of the line up, next man up!

Seemed to suffer the injury on the TD reception, and it wasn't clear to me exactly where the injury happened. He was limping as he left the end zone to return to the sideline. I'm just glad Fredericks wasn't injured on his first carry which went for 31 yards. He was slow to get up after landing on the ball, but it turned out to be nothing.

I don't think his ankle has a cold. He needs some BenGay.

Erv right now is the team's most dynamic playmaker followed closely by Bris. Strickland's time to shine if Erv is out.

For the love of buddha, no more jet sweeps to Lewis

That's a good way to put it.

 

[Orijinal]

Buddha has nothing to do with it

The silver lining, if Erv winds up missing the game, is that I think Strickland is athletic enough and talented enough to make a lot of the same sorts of plays that Erv would. Obviously he's missing the game experience but he's a dynamic athlete. There's a bit of a drop off, but it's not a precipitous.

Let it soak right down to the bone

Yeah, if Erv is out it's definitely a loss.

The bright side is that Lewis, Strickland, Hill, perhaps even Womack can step in and make some plays as well. Strickland and Hill have the speed, and the coaches clearly want to get Womack the ball. Don't forget that Ish, Estime, Avant and the other wide outs are healthy. The O-line is healthy. Lester's system is in place. Yes, the freshman QB has a lot on his plate. However, this is a better situation than last season because last year the young QBs were under much more pressing circumstances with so many other injuries. Dungey seems to process everything well, and he's an athlete. Go Cuse!!

Clever move. Pretend Erv's hurt so Wake don't game plan for him... then watch Clawson's head explode when he see's him on the field in warm ups.

Perkins also I would presume

I know Hill is a little dude, but he is elusive, definitely get him involved again this week. that spin move he made against URI was awesome.
