Update: Mompremier in stable condition

I'll get to game stuff shortly from USF's too-close 17-9 win at FIU, but want to get this out there: Linebacker Brouce Mompremier, who was taken off in an ambulance after a collision at midfield, is in stable condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, where he is expected to stay overnight.

Mompremier had movement in his arms and legs before leaving the field and was undergoing standard scans following a neck injury. He was experiencing some tingling in his shoulders, according to a USF statement after the game. Teammates and coaches were relieved upon learning his condition, though it's not immediately known when he'll be able to return to the playing field.
