Injury update

PORTLAND, Ore. -- There was so much to pack into Saturday's game stories and so little time. Here two notes things that didn't get all the way into Saturday's game story.

The goal line stand: We'll be talking plenty more about that in Monday's paper. Clearly the best "Aggie Pride" moment since the gamewinning drive at Stanford. This one might have been even more improbable. The momentum had appeared to shift back to the Vikings in the fourth quarter. And then, suddenly, it hadn't.

The injuries: Chris Miller suffered an abdominal injury and was taken to a nearby hospital for observation, although early word was that the injury wasn't serious. Miller is also the holder on placements, which might have contributed to some of the kicking problems. Chris Carter suffered a knee injury, and UCD coach Bob Biggs spoke in tones that suggested it was serious. Tight end Brad Bispo suffered a serious ankle sprain. It would be hard to see him playing next week.
