Midway through the first half of Texas A&M's game against the Utah State Aggies, A&M fans were holding their breath as one of the top players on Collin Klein's offense was down on the field.
Trey Zuhn was having a big day up front against the USU defensive line, as was projected coming into the game. He, along with his compatriots up front, have been dominating en route to putting up 6.5 yards per carry on the visitors so far in this game.
However, in the second quarter, Zuhn was slow to get up after the play. He was down on the ground for a bit after a run play where he got rolled up as the tackle happened behind him, and started to get up as the training staff arrived.
He signaled a thumbs-up to the watching crowd and walked off the field under his own power, but he was not seen back out there for the Aggies for the remainder of the half. The SEC Network crew reported that he headed back to the locker room before the half ended in what is hopefully just a precaution.

It's possible that the Aggie training staff is just being careful with one of their best players, but Texas A&M cannot afford to have Zuhn miss extended time. With the upcoming game against Notre Dame, this Aggie squad needs to be at full strength.
With the second half now begun, hopefully Texas A&M can keep everyone healthy. If Zuhn doesn't appear for the Aggies again in this game, I think most A&M fans would be happy as long as he's good to go nex
