Michael Bush apparently broke the larger bone in the lower leg and is out for the season. You hate to see that. I wish him a speedy recovery but U of L has already announced he is out for the season.

I hate that that happened. I hope that it wasn't a dirty play on KY's part. Looked like the first tackler who took him down pulled Bush's leg up as the play was ending, and then two KY defenders hit Bush while he was vulnerable.

Don't get me wrong, I'm UK all the way and maybe it was just hard tackling and it was an unfortunate incident. Although I sometimes root against UL, especially when they are playing UK, I hate that they won't have their best player available the rest of the season. I would hate that for almost any team in the same situation.

ALA Kat, he broke his leg when he got tackled, as he seemed to go up in the air and then came down on his right leg, with it extended stiffly. It had no room to bend, and it just snapped....I don't think anybody realized he was hurt until after the play. Bush is Keenan Burton's best friend, I think Burton would've been on someone had it been intentional.

A real strange injury. I guess all that weight and torque were just too much for the bone to support.
