    Meyer said backup left tackle Matt Patchan tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Tuesday’s practice and will have season-ending surgery.

    Patchan’s two seasons have been filled with injuries and mishaps. He got mononucleosis when he first arrived on campus in January 2008, then separated his right shoulder during offseason workouts, was shot in his left shoulder in May 2008, tore his left pectoral muscle while rehabbing from that, and then tore ligaments in his left knee late last year.
    Just when Patchan thought he was fully healed, he injured his left leg in a scooter accident this spring.

    Now this.

    “That hurts,” Meyer said. “That’s a tough deal, especially for Matt. Matt’s been injury prone. He was coming into his own a little bit, playing, starting and getting a lot of action.”

    Coincidentally, Patchan was playing left tackle when Tebow was injured at Kentucky. Defensive end Taylor Wyndham lined up across from Patchan, came unblocked and sacked Tebow.

    I wonder if Meyer told one of his players to take him out?

    Code Red was the order Jack Nicholson's character gave to kill the marine in A Few Good Men.
