It was if every bever fan cried out in terror and was suddenly silenced.

Poor, poor Beavs. They're basically about to become Stanford w/ better WRs.

man that sux for the Beavers. Don't know that Vaz has much experience. I think he is all they have though. Big bummer.

Is this full on long-term injury or a few weeks after a scope?

Don't know since not much has been published. I'd say he's going to miss a couple weeks based on the fact that they haven't said he'll be out for the rest of the season.

I'm gonna guess he's just gonna get his knee scoped. Just a guess though. I feel like they would have said "out for the year" if it was.

At this point in the season, even a light surgery is pretty limiting on his ability to get to 100% at any point the rest of the year.

That sucks for the Beavers. We know what it's like to be on the verge of an epic season only to have your stud QB go down. I don't ever root for the Beavers but I also hate seeing young guys getting hurt so hopefully he returns soon

[MFRDuckFan]

I'm guessing he's not just getting scoped since they did an MRI but I'm not a doctor by any means. Sucks to be them and we'll be bigger adults and not taunt them like they did us when Dennis went down.

I will never forget how Oregon used to get derailed on promising seasons with an injury to the wrong key player... Sorry to hear this.

[Braveheart]

That's a bummer.

Several things about this sucks.
1. It was great to see the Beav's having a good run. Good for the state, good for the Civil War.
2. Que the we didn't have Mannion excuses.

If he is indeed out for the season, Civil War just got less interesting.

Really sucks for the Beavers, their defense is really solid and they finally have a great QB to help lead this team. Can't see them winning many games without him.
