Petersen was noncommittal when asked if there was any chance Victor could recover in time for a bowl game.Its OK. Its not going to be a real long-term thing, Petersen said. Its a bone and those things will heal quickly. I dont know exactly what the timeline is but its probably as good as it could be in terms of all those things.Victor was injured in the second quarter of No. 7 Washingtons 26-13 loss to Southern California on Saturday. Victor was in on the tackle of USCs Justin Davis on a running play, but immediately came up hobbling. He was on the field for several minutes getting tended to by medical personnel, who put an air cast on Victors leg on the field before he was taken off on a cart.Victor leads Washington with 68 tackles this season. He was regarded as a potential second-day pick in the NFL draft if he left after his junior season.So really when it was all said and done it was probably more positive than we were first thinking, Petersen said. Sometimes when you go into surgery and all that its all this kind of stuff but it was pretty straightforward from what I understand.Its the second major loss for the Huskies on that side of the ball after sack leader Joe Mathis underwent surgery earlier this month for a foot injury. Mathis is also expected to be out for the season, although The Seattle Times reported last week that Mathis is hopeful of possibly being able to return for a bowl game.Petersen joked Monday that no team other than Alabama could have the depth on the roster to withstand losing two top defensive players and not have any drop off.I dont know if anyone does that. Maybe Alabama. I dont know, he said. I think every coach in America, for the most part, you get a really good player, you lose them, you might have a really good young player but theyre just not there. I dont know if you ever get there.Redshirt freshman D.J. Beavers is listed as the starter with Victor out. Beavers stepped in after Victors injury on Saturday and finished with six tackles. But he also had some of his inexperience exposed by USC.Linebacker is one area where Washington still lacks experienced depth. Along with Beavers, the other options appear to be freshman Brandon Wellington and sophomore Ben Burr-Kirven.I think he filled in pretty well, Petersen said of Beavers. He made some tackles, played aggressive, played tough. Its hard when you lose a player like Azeem for sure but its not like `We have no chance type thing. He was right there playing physical like a linebacker should. Hes had a lot of good reps throughout the season and now hes going to have a lot more.---More AP college football:

Or, in other words, the two teams would appear to have at least spoken. And spoken is defined as one calling the other to inquire, no more, no less.

Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself.

Didier Drogba gave away the penalty that put Senegal one goal away from a major upset, but the veteran striker will get another chance -- probably his last -- at the World Cup after Salomon Kalous injury-time strike sealed the Ivorians place in Brazil next year. RIO DE JANEIRO -- The question hanging over Lizzie Armitstead, after the dramatic womens road race had provided respite from the furore engulfing her, is whether she has learned her lesson.The British rider had spent most of the week at the centre of a storm over her failure to observe whereabouts drugs testing rules three times in the past year.She could have been facing a four-year ban but the Court of Arbitration for Sport scratched one of her errors to put her on the Forte de Copacabana start line on Sunday, when she finished fifth behind Anna van der Breggen.The winners Netherlands teammate Annemiek van Vleuten suffered an horrific-looking crash, and some of the Sunday night reports about the injuries she suffered were sobering. But the hangover from Armitsteads issues were still real and Pauline Ferrand Prevot, who had been critical of the decision to allow Armitstead to race, spoke out again.It was a wrong judgement, said the French rider who finished 26th. If it was me, my federation would have said you dont go to the Olympics. You need to respect the rules, they are the same for everybody.I havent spoken to Lizzie this week. Her fiancée had a bad reaction [to me speaking out] and sometimes people are strange.I hope next time she can get the whereabouts rule right. She needs to learn, maybe.It is hard for many people to accept elite athletes make the sort of mistakes that Armitstead made.She has explained at length her version of events?but there surely cannot be many stars in cycling who are not permanently paranoid about observing the drugs-testing rules, regardless of what is going on in their lives.Their careers are at stake if they err and Armitstead has accepted that her reputation has been tainted by this episode.Id be lying if I said I wasnt looking forward to putting this behind me, she said affter staying deep in the field for much of the Sundays race and just failing to perform well enough in the final climb.

I hope the nation doesnt lose faith and they get behind the team, because it will be a good two weeks of sport.I have to come to terms with [the way Im seen]. I cant pick up the phone to everybody that doubts me and explain myself.The only thing I can do is ride my bike fast, get my head down and concentrate on the things I can control.Armitstead insisted her cycling peers have been very supportive, and her British teammates said she had been focused on training and hadnt needed any lifting in the past few days.She has fond Olympic memories of her silver medal from London to console herself with, but they appeared pretty distant to her on Sunday.I have lost a lot of sleep and its been tough, Armitstead said. The immediate future is about getting to see my family and being around people who care about me and love me. Im very much looking forward to that.Sundays race allowed a different focus for the Briton, who said the furore didnt enter her mind once, but her performance over the 136.9km course wasnt enough to change her narrative.Armitstead suffered a puncture early and had to change bikes, and she was pretty happy with fifth, claiming she would have needed a miracle to take gold on a course as undulating as this.Finishing the Olympics and almost wanting to forget it is tough. But, after finishing 20 seconds behind van der Breggen, keeping quiet and cycling fast isnt quite all that she can do.She can impeccably observe the drugs-testing rules, too. ' ' '
