Was confused as to what his injury is actually is. It appeared on the replay that he rolled his ankle, but thought I read that Woodson said it is his knee?

Word is that he was jumping around on the sidelines when we won so I wouldn't worry too much about it until we know more.
It definitely looked bad when it happened but the word that he was jumping around and walked off on his own power makes me doubt it's anything too serious.
And that’s good but once the shoes and body weight are off tonight, it could swell and I hope it doesn’t.
Hope you’re right.
But didn’t Reggie Wayne walk off the field on his own (albeit with a limp) when he tore his ACL?
After watching the replay.... I thought he.... well.... I'm going to say Hyper-extended his right knee.... but I don't know if Hyper-extend is the correct word for it.
When he planted his right foot.... his right leg just bowed out at his knee.
So would it be Hyper-extend to the side???
"A hyperextended knee occurs when the knee is bent backward, often as a result of landing wrong after a jump."
Well it didn't bend backward.... but side-ward.

Pretty sure I saw him jumping in one of the victory videos
I thought it looked like he slipped on the floor. Maybe a wet area?
Quite possibly could have been one of those at the moment just seems horrible but subsides quickly and just hit a nerve , let's hope. I rememeber tweaking a knee out working hearing a pop and agony for about 5 minutes , rubbed a little dirt in it and was fine. We need a dirt bucket!
Look at it again....he planted his right foot which appeared to slip out from under him,
to the outside.
Perhaps high ankle or inside right knee.
We need JG for the next game but also need him healthy for the summer to make that leap we need from him.
That's code for he's not playing tomorrow..
And it may be the dreaded ACL..
Praying it's none of the above..
If so, it looks like a classic "slip and fall" so call Ken Nunn and he'll git 'er done! That said, IU has had horrible luck with injuries this season. Granted, it can always be worse but we seem to have had our fair share of injuries and discipline issues. In contrast, PU has been injury free throughout and but a meaningless three game suspension to Gillis to open the season.

Oh, no...not the dreaded "cafeteria injury" cause if so, he gone for good and 'dat bad.
Different grades of MCL injuries from 1-3. Grade 1 is a short recovery and grade 3 will take 6 months and usually surgery.
Recovery From An MCL Injury? – Howard J. Luks, MD
The medial collateral ligament or the MCL is a large ligament running along the inner side of the knee. The MCL helps prevent the knee from caving inward. MCL injuries can occur from being hit on the…

Let's hope it's not that. No shit, I'm actually surprised that place still exists, but it does, and my wife has an older relative that just got food poisoning from there last week and had to be hospitalized for it. Hopefully its a sprain and not an ACL or MCL
The founder and owner of MCL Cafeteria lived down the street from our family in the 1960's. His son eventually took over the family business with 26 locations throughout the Midwest. They were the only Purdue family in the neighborhood, the black (and gold) sheep. The rest were IU families, with one Notre Dame, the only Catholic family giving a sh*t about sports. My first wife and I purchased his son's home when he moved into much larger digs in 1980. Fast food delivery, in general, is what killed the traditional cafeteria business. Drive up window service was the final nail in the coffin. There still remains a small niche for cafeteria dining style, but it's a slowly dying one, figuratively and literally (cough, cough).
I'm 49 and I probably haven't been there in 40 years, but I don't recall it being bad at the time. I was actually a little shocked that it still existed in my hometown when my wife told me about it, but yes, food poisoning, and they're 80 and late sixties-ish, They pulled through at least
It was actually an OK place as I remember in its heyday, not a Golden Corral or anything, much better than that and not redneck-ish. More of an old folks place, and I guess still is. In fact, I think the handful of times I went, it was with my grandparents, probably at 4:00 pm
Only time I ever ate at the MCL (Muncie mall no less) was with my dear departed grandmother. She loved that place
I forgot until recently that there was an MCL close to me! Havent eaten there forever, but doordashed it a couple times. Their beef/turkey manhattans are awesome!
I'm embarrassed to say I thought this was a typo/auto correct error, you ("SoccerSammy") meaning "ACL" of much greater sports injury fame. All I saw mentally was MCL, an acronym for McGaughey and Laughner, the two founding families of Indy based MCL Cafeterias. In tandem, it was originally dubbed "McLaughner's" Cafeteria. The Laughner half cashed out and the two owners became competitors with Laughner Cafeterias. The remaining family changing it to simply MCL. I wouldn't feel too sorry for these changing dining times-the owner's son as owner, once a neighbor of the now faceless "abraxis," went on to became a neighbor of "The Manning's"...the Manning's of Peyton Manning Children's Hospital. I can't think of anything more altruistic to Mankind than a children's hospital, something beyond just a hospital, but a hospital curing the community's children, the defenseless ones more deserving. The Manning's are certainly to be commended, as Peyton will always be a legend in Indianapolis (stretching far beyond the suburbs) both in name (his inner soul speaking) and football prowess ("I'll always be a Colt!").
"So now, you know...THE REST OF THE STORY!"
Should you ever read this (doubtful, so forgive me this again) Craig,, aka "Trigger" on the backyard basketball courts, but I think it was the Purdue gene in your bloodline. Certainly not reason not to cherish the good times of childhood, now in future, passed in celebration.
Keep it going, Hoosiers. You've just become (finally!) the team we've been waiting to see, the team that plays great defense and doesn't give up easily. IU fan's feel good about themselves once again. It's been a long time and we're not ready to see it come to an end. It's Game Day...have I ever told you how much I like Game Day? So many times, always as before.
This thread is hilarious, I can't believe they still exist either. It goes from Abraxis mentioning it, to me, no shit our older relatives getting food poisoning there last week, to beef Manhattans. Oh man, we might need a dedicated MCL thread
Oh man, you're bringing back memories, I had completely forgot about Laughner's, this is like a trip back to 1985, making me laugh
I saw in a video too that he had a knee bandage on his left leg too and moved well after going onto the court
I know, not of this "Mayfield" you speak so little of. Mayfield what? I like last names.
Mcl wasn’t that the mayfield family? I might be getting the restaurants mixed up but I thought when they closed the MCL in Bloomington they reorganized to the west side as Mayfield’s Mcl. They weren’t the founders though.
