Which injuries put Zac in a bad position?

Yeah, BC kept expecting Zac to make plays.  Remember 
the last drive versus A&M.  When the plays work, Zac 
is a hero.  When the plays fail, BC is an idiot.

Yeah, the whole team lost.  But team didn't throw 
three interceptions.  And the team didn't fumble 
the ball.

Yeah, the defense gave up 14 points.  Don't you think
our offense should be about to score that much?

Me too.  But we were down by 14, and I do not blame BC 
for looking to the passing game to catch up quickly.  
If Zac had played his usual game, we would have succeeded.

We had the game won.  The defence held them to 14 points.
Our offence out-yarded them on the ground.  Our offence
out-yarded them in the air.  We had field position.  The
only problem was that our QB did not execute as well as
he should have.
