Player Injuries/Updates
Middle Tennessee wide receiver Patrick Honeycutt and backup quarterback Nicholas Coleman were arrested and charged with providing alcohol to minors early Sunday morning. Honeycutt and Coleman "had several kegs of beer and were charging money at the door for empty cups." We can only assume the cups were going for $3 a pop. Honeycutt is the team's leading receiver with 20 catches for 220 yards and a score. "We will be reviewing the situation and taking appropriate action," said athletic direction Chris Massaro.
Kentucky coach Rich Brooks is not saying who will start at quarterback Saturday against Auburn. "You may find out when the game starts," Brooks said after practice on Tuesday. With Mike Hartline (knee) out, the leading candidates are Will Fidler and true freshman Morgan Newton. We can't help but wonder if wide receiver Randall Cobb is in the mix as well.
Toledo coach Tim Beckman has downgraded quarterback Aaron Opelt (shoulder) to questionable this week against Northern Illinois. Earlier in the week Beckman called Opelt probable, but other sources said it was unlikely he would play. The latter seems to be the case as Opelt is still experiencing pain in his shoulder. If Opelt doesn't go, Austin Dantin will start.
Hawaii wide receiver Royce Pollard has a stress fracture in left fibula and will not make the trip to Idaho. Pollard has caught 13 balls for 142 yards on the season. There's no timetable on his return.
