Injuries ?

Any reported injuries? On the UCF side, hopefully their guy's OK as initially reported.

We had one guy get helped off not sure who. Can’t believe the UCF guy is “going to be fine.” Watching replays he just completely folded up and both med staffs and paramedics were out there almost immediately. Really good news if that’s the case he’s gonna be ok. Very scary scene to start the year.

Think that was Eli Thomas (right in front of UConn bench) but he returned to the field a few series later.

As Eli Thomas was helped off the field, I think it was DO who mentioned Thomas had not played a single game of football since 2015 due to knee injuries. And yes, returned to play later in the game.

Orlando Sentinel article on Central Florida player Aaron Robinson:
"He's going to be OK," UCF coach Josh Heupel said after the Knights' 56-17 win. "He's going to stay [at a local hospital] overnight.' Robinson moved his lower legs as he was carted off, UCF officials confirmed."

He flashed a "thumbs up" as well.
