  FIU's top player, wide receiver Tyrese Chambers, was injured and held to just two catches and 15 yards. MacIntyre had no immediate update on his status. Starting safety C.J. Christian, however, is out for the year due to a shoulder injury. "That's a big loss for us," MacIntyre said. In addition, FIU's offensive line is beat up, particularly with an injury on Saturday to Lyndell Hudson Jr. "It's always tough," MacIntyre said of the injuries, "but the next man up gets a shot to show if he can play." - Miami Herald

  Wisconsin running back Chez Mellusi will miss an unspecified length of time after injuring his right wrist in the Badgers’ 42-7 victory over Northwestern. Mellusi has rushed for 223 yards and one touchdown on 56 carries this season, He also has two catches for 25 yards, including a 23-yard touchdown in the Northwestern game. Wisconsin announced Monday that Mellusi wouldn’t be available Saturday when the Badgers (3-3, 1-2 Big Ten) visit Michigan State (2-4, 0-3). Badgers interim head coach Jim Leonhard said it was uncertain just how much time Mellusi would miss. This marks the second straight year that Mellusi has missed time with an injury. Mellusi, a Clemson transfer, rushed for 815 yards and five touchdowns on 173 carries in nine games with Wisconsin last year before a torn left anterior cruciate ligament knocked him out for the remainder of the season. - AP College Football
