Stanford QB leaves Sun Bowl with knee injury

Related Topics: Keller, Texas, Quarterback, Sun Bowl, Knee

Stanford Cardinal quarterback Keller Chryst injured his right knee late in the first quarter of the Hyundai Sun Bowl against North Carolina.

Chryst immediately grabbed and favored the knee after being tackled on a scramble to the right side. Trainers helped him limp to an injury tent on Stanford's sideline, and an injury cart took Chryst to the locker room with ice on his right knee shortly thereafter.

Ryan Burns, who started the Cardinal's first seven games of the season, took over at quarterback.

Chryst replaced Burns in late October, starting the final five games of Stanford's regular season -- all wins.
