HSKRNOKC Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 I noticed that he didnt play at all against Baylor. Just wondering the status of him for Saturday. If he plays, what impact do you think he can make with a hurt ankle?It sure seems to have affected his ability to cut on the field. Quote Link to comment
BigRedDallasTexan Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Even with a hurt ankle, he still draws a lot of the attention so I think he can make an impact in that way. I haven't really been following his injury so I'm not sure of his status. I wish him a speedy recovery because he's a great player, but for the sake of the huskers I hope he's not able to go.

DaveH Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 From what I have heard no one is really sure at this point. He has been limping all year on that ankle. High ankle sprains can be a beast to get rid of, especially if Stoops keeps putting him in when he is limping around in warmups with 5 rolls of tape on his ankle Quote Link to comment
Huskrz65 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Sad to say, but if they put him in against the hungry Balckshirts that seek redemption for last week's debacle in Columbia, he may be done for the season. Quote Link to comment

I don't know about that. He may just do what Brad Smith did and run all over them if Cosgrove can't figure out any good defensive schemes. Quote Link to comment

He hasn't been close 100 percent for at least 4 games now. AFAIK. Quote Link to comment

Look what we did to Brad Smith last year and look what he did to us this year. Just because we managed to shut down Peterson last year doesn't mean we can do it again. Quote Link to comment
BigRedSmitty Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Sine it only takes one player to beat us...probably Quote Link to comment
Nate Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Im listening to the Sports Animal (local 104.9 FM Oklahoma City) and their saying hes probably not going to be playing at the Nebraska game. Quote Link to comment

Don't listen to that. That was the same station i heard from Baylor fans on the OU board a couple of days ago that said Pederson may play last weekend and he didn't. There's a reason why Stoops rested him last weekend, and that's to play against NU. Quote Link to comment
Nate Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Even if he does play, hes going to end up getting hurt... agian. Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted October 25, 2005 Author Share Posted October 25, 2005 Even if he does play, hes going to end up getting hurt... agian. Very possible. B . Smith was 100%.A high ankle sprain is a nagging injury that usually takes a long time, if ever to heal. As I mentioned he looked very north and south. That takes alot away from his game and allows the linebackers to tee off. Thier passing game is improving(slowly). Without him ,I think the back up is Jones. Hes good , but no healthy Peterson thats for sure. Quote Link to comment
nu4everfan15 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 espn news just reported that peterson is likely to play this saturday... how much is a mystery though Quote Link to comment
NU fan in Denver Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I think AP plays. He has been rested or played sparingly for almost 4 weeks now. This game is critical to OU's bowl Chances. If they lose to NU they gotta win 2 out of 3 against Tech, TA&M, and OSU. Quote Link to comment

If they lose to NU they gotta win 2 out of 3 against Tech, TA&M, and OSU. BINGO. What i said in another thread. OU is cornered right now and this is the worst time to get them in Lincoln. They won't beat Tech (i will put money on it anyday of the week), and with A&M looking better and better each game, even that isn't a gimmie game either. Quote Link to comment
