Hunter94 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Bo said during the post game conference that Lee was "Day to Day." If he is out, they are not talking. Supposedly it is just a soar arm? yeah and Bo said last week T-Mart was fine, i have lost faith in what Pelini sez....... Quote Link to comment

Nexus Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 So how close was Nebraska to playing Taylor Martinez at quarterback today? "He could have played today, but if we didn't have to go that route, it was in the best interest of ours to have him ready for the weeks that follow," Husker offensive coordinator Shawn Watson said after the 31-30 win over Iowa State. "As the week progressed, he got better, so that was the encouraging thing," Watson said. "But he still wasn't totally Taylor. So we made a decision at gametime ... Plan B became Plan A and Plan A became Plan B." Martinez did come into the game for one snap early when Cody Green got the wind knocked out of him, but the Huskers split him out wide and ran out of the Wildcat with Rex Burkhead on the play. As for Zac Lee? Lee did not even throw the football in warmups and wasn't available to throw the ball in the game. "We could have played him in a running aspect," Watson said. "But as far as throwing the ball, it wasn't going to be something he could do with downfield throws." Watson said Lee hit his hand on a helmet during practice this week. X-rays on the hand were negative. Just a lot of swelling, Watson said. The coach was optimistic both Martinez and Lee will be available against Kansas. "Oh, yeah, we'll have them back," Watson said. "That's why the way things actually transpired today, it was actually a good thing. They get another week now." LINK Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 This from the OWH: Zac Lee, who played all of the second half against Mizzou in relief of Martinez, was in uniform Saturday, but didn't play. During pre-game warm-ups the senior quarterback didn't throw a pass. He wore some sort of protective sleeve on his right arm. Quote Link to comment
0maha Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Have they said what exactly is wrong with Lee's arm? Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 i have heard that LEE hit his throwing hand on a helmet in practice and it swelled up pretty good. Xrays were negative and he and T Magic are expected to be ready to go next week. edit Nexus article beat me to it Quote Link to comment
krc1995 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 ok, so Martinez come briefly in relief of Green, who comes back in to play WR, while Burkhead plays QB? Me thinks T-Mart is really hurt. Quote Link to comment
jamrinelli Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I think if he was out for the year he wouldnt have dressed for the game today. Quote Link to comment

Me thinks T-Mart is really hurt. I believe he is hurt to but not as bad as some people may be saying on here. They just didnt want him to get hit today. I think the coaching staff thought it was gonna be an easier matchup then it was today and they wanted to make sure he would be healthy for a&m and later games Quote Link to comment
TheCheshireCat Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 What's he sore from? The five throws he had against Missouri? Quote Link to comment

Lil' Red Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 ok, so Martinez come briefly in relief of Green, who comes back in to play WR, while Burkhead plays QB? Me thinks T-Mart is really hurt. If he was really hurt they wouldn't have put him in at all. They had him ready to play so I don't think he's hurt too bad. Quote Link to comment
