Lots of injuries tonight, but...

[RF2044]

...were any of them serious?

Christ, its like we're fielding the walking wounded at this point. That week 2 bye was really detrimental.

Hope that we didn't sustain anything serious today. Need to start getting healthier for the home stretch.

 

[Chip]

Nah, we're fine. Just trying to break their rhythm on offense. Even when we were on offense and our offensive players got hurt.

I know Hickey, Thompson and Eskridge were back in the game. Not sure about Estime.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Estime is on crutches.

Everyone else got banged up but came back in.

Estime has his right foot in a brace, heading to the bus on crutches

 

[Chris02M]

estime left the stadium on crutches with a right foot injury

 

[anomander]

I don't remember any Clemson players on the ground the entire game. We had to have at least 7 guys down at some point. Are we just unlucky because this feels like a weekly thing?

Many teams impliment a PREhab program for their offseason training regeimin excersizing each athlete as if he has some of the most common football injuries ankles acls shoulders neck to reduce concussions. Rehabilitating an injury generally involves strengthening the stabilizing muscles around the injury site allowing the body to heal and not be easily reinjured with everyday motion until the injured area is back to 100%. Prehab focuses on strengthening these muscles Ahead of time to reduce the incidence of the injury. Don't know if SU does this but I have definately noticed ad go down injured or cramped more often kn almost every game. Cramps can often be reduced by proper hydrarion id be surprised if some teams don't use iv/banana bags at the half.

Physical therapist in my family explained the theory and studies that have been done on it.

Guys with banana bags always creep me out a bit. Must be a European thing.

Pretty depressing seeing so many of our players laying on their backs hurt, game after game.

Yes, and this isn't the first time we've seen that either.

 

[SmilinBob]

A lot of guys trying their best to play through injuries. The bye week can not come soon enough.

not having to travel the next 2 games should help with some of those injuries before bye comes

Eskridge kept his streak going.

What a lost season for Estime and wishing he could have red shirted. Probably out till the Pitt game at the earliest for nothing worse than re-injuring a high ankle sprain.

 

[Orangejet]

Twice a game for the rest of the season is my bet...

Thought I read that this new injury was to the "healthy" ankle.

Different foot this time.

 

[SmilinBob]

Different foot this time.

I didn't want to see that...shut him down until 2015.

it was the other foot not one he hurt earlier

 

[Cuse'91]

I remember in the summer when this board was arguing over whether Estime would get 12 or 15 tds... Not such a small sample now, Brisly is very injury prone.

It happens every week.

On every third play we seem to have a guy down - Eskridge is down every game.

And the opposing team rarely if ever has a player down.

I have never seen anything like it before.

 

[OrangePA]

Eskridge kept his streak going.

He ought to can the thought of going into the draft.

I can't believe an NFL team would take a chance on him at this point.

Bulk up, get healthy, come back for another year and prove you can stay on the field.

 

[OmahaCuse]

No way is Eskridge ready for the NFL he goes down at least two times a game with some type of injury. He will get killed in the league needs to add 15-20 lbs.

I have been saying this for weeks. What is up with this?
Also it is making our game times extremely long. I think we are adding 30 minutes to each game of players lying injured on the field. We need 4 hours + to watch a game.

we are playing teams much bigger stronger and faster that's why we have guys getting nicked during the game
