Looks like JuJu supposed to play with his broken hand, some interesting injuries at center:
While Smith-Schuster continues to recover, injuries are piling up elsewhere. Starting center Khaliel Rodgers is dealing with a shoulder injury, prompting Nico Falah and guard Viane Talamaivao to get reps snapping the ball. USC's top two centers, Max Tuerk and Toa Lobendahn, are out for the season with knee injuries.
Defensive lineman Claude Pelon was carted off the field after suffering an injury near the end of practice Tuesday. Safety Leon McQuay III and running back Tre Madden are questionable to play with knee injuries, while linebacker Cameron Smith should be good to go against the Buffaloes after having an MRI on his shoulder.
USC injury report: OUT: RB Tre Madden (knee), C Max Tuerk (knee), WR Isaac Whitney (shoulder), S Marvell Tell (shoulder), OL Toa Lobendahn (knee). QUESTIONABLE: JuJu Smith-Schuster (hand), S Leon McQuay (knee). PROBABLE: WR Darreus Rogers (hamstring), LB Cameron Smith (hamstring).
Colorado injury report: OUT: LB Addison Gillam (knee). DOUBTFUL: FS Ryan Moeller (concussion). QUESTIONABLE: OL Gerrad Kough (concussion), WR Jay MacIntyre (concussion), RB Michael Adkins (hamstring). PROBABLE: LB Ryan Severson (ankle), WR Shay Fields (ankle).
A bonus for Colo is Shay Fields can give it a go and not seeing Liufau on this report
