McCoy leaves title game

NCAA Football Betting Lines

01/07/2010 - Pasadena, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Texas quarterback Colt McCoy suffered an apparent right shoulder injury early in the first quarter of the BCS national championship game against Alabama.

Shortly after Alabama failed on a fake punt, McCoy kept the ball on a rushing play for no yards and was nailed in the shoulder by Marcell Dareus at the Alabama 11-yard line. McCoy was then sent to the sideline to have his shoulder worked on, and the Longhorns sent freshman Garrett Gilbert in at QB.

Gilbert's first play resulted in a shotgun handoff to D.J. Monroe, who ran to the one. The Crimson Tide defense then stiffened and Hunter Lawrence kicked an 18-yard field goal with 9:11 left in the quarter for a 3-0 lead.

McCoy was then seen walking to the locker room, apparently for further examination.
