Chris Brown will definitely sit out the Big XII Championship game in Houston, TX Saturday. In other news, he will not win the Heisman this year nor will he rush for 2000 regular season yards. Now that we have that off our chest. Here is a brief overview. His sternum won’t heal and he hasn’t been able to practice. No practice no game. Feel free to go to any news source to read about it.
Purify isn’t looking to likely either. This does not make me happy. Purify has been struggling with a sprained MCL, but that is not the problem. He has been slowed by the high ankle sprain he suffred last week in Lincoln. He ran in practice a little yesterday but no wehre close to full speed. That hasn’t stopped Eric Bienemy from being hopeful. Bieniemy said Purify would see some action, “Ain’t no ands or buts about it,” he said.
Starting Lineup Marcus Houston. Marcus, if you’ve ever had a big day wearing black and gold, please have one Saturday. Maybe something akin to what you did against USC.
Calhoun, just keep it up. The kid can run, but I don’t think he can carry the load of the entire game. Houston and Calhoun are going to have to split carries, for this to work.
And for the short pounding yards I feel more comfortable after seeing Drumm make some plays last week. Regardless, the entire team is going to need to be firing on all cylinders to win in Houston. By the way – Drumm has the flu.
