Vanderbilt star QB Diego Pavia returns after injury against Texas Longhorns

The Vanderbilt Commodores have suffered a great fear against the Texas Longhorns.

Late in the second quarter, Commodores star quarterback Diego Pavia was injured on a running play, which was reported as a left knee injury.

Pavia went straight to the medical tent after the game and was replaced by backup Nate Johnson.

Johnson came in and ran a handful of plays to keep the Vanderbilt drive alive, though he almost threw a pick to Longhorns linebacker Anthony Hill.

Shortly afterwards, Pavia returned the match. The Longhorns forced a turnover a few plays later thanks to a Michael Taaffe hit.

Texas took over in Vanderbilt territory near midfield.
