Fans are feeling for Bru McCoy on Saturday night after the Tennessee wide receiver went down with what looks to be an awful leg injury.
After catching a ball and fighting for the first down, McCoy was taken down awkwardly and had to be carted off the field in an air cast and later brought to UT Medical Center by ambulance.
