Any word on Moss?

Did not look good, I'm very nervous. I've watched a lot of sports in my lifetime, I got a strong "torn knee ligament" vibe watching that. Hope I'm I'm wrong, dude is a weapon.
 
I hope for a sprain, those non-contact injuries usually = very bad. Maybe he actually hurt it on the INT but the adrenaline rush made him not feel it until he got up.
 
Whether he hurt it on the celebration or not, maybe Iowa DB's should stop celebrating after interceptions.

Moss gets hurt. Hankins gets a penalty for an interception that he should have just dropped on 4th down. Just grab the interception and then just hand the ball to the ref.

Celebrate and have fun. We havent seen an Iowa team have this much fun.

dont rush the field either
 
Glad to hear that the Moss injury isn’t as bad as it initially appeared. That being said, there isn’t a big drop off with Roberts stepping in.
 
The way he was jogging did not look like a tear. Let's hope sprain and out a couple weeks. Roberts looked just fine though.
 
Kirk said Moss will be out a couple weeks or so and he got hurt during the play instead of some people saying he got hurt celebrating which Kirk sort of called out and dismissed.

A couple weeks is 10x better than I feared, whew.

I also have to say I was unconvinced that he injured it during the celebration - it was weird timing for sure, but I saw nothing in the celebration that looked like it would account for an injury.

He got hurt during the play but, with the adrenaline and excitement, it took him a couple seconds to notice how bad it hurt. Looked strange, but is more plausible than it happening during the celebration, i think.
 
I've seen that it's a possible PCL strain/sprain/tear elsewhere.

My own context...I'm currently walking around with a partially torn PCL. Apparently it was torn a while ago and it must have been some sports injury (read: rec league basketball, slow pitch softball, nothing like what Moss is doing) that the docs missed when they diagnosed because I never got an MRI. Well, I tweaked my knee recently and had a ton of pain and a little bit of "fear" around stability...got the MRI because the x-ray didn't reveal anything. Knee specialist said it's possible that I tweaked my PCL/made it a little worse, but that they could somehow tell that it was from an older injury. Anyway, I'm a 42 year old man and it took me about a month before I felt good about my knee again and probably about 6 weeks before I felt like I could run. Not great context, because I'm not going to ask my knee to anything near what Moss is, but I'm also not a 21 year old kid in the prime of my athletic career. So take that all for what it's worth...

tl;dr - I'm old. My PCL got tweaked. I was out around 6 weeks. Riley Moss is not old. Hopefully a month at worst.
 
Watching the replay, I didn't see him jump or body bump anybody. Glad to hear is minor, Roberts will be fine, hopefully back by Wisc

That’s what I said from the beginning. He was so ramped up that he didn’t realize he was hurt when he first got up.
 
Purdue and then the bye week Terry Roberts is more than capable of holding it down until then.
 
After Purdue we have what will probably be a perfectly timed bye week. Hopefully Riley can return in time for Wisconsin on the 30th.
