Markey doubtful, Pitre out
Chris Markey - who was still wearing a protective boot Wednesday - didn't practice and he is looking ''less than 50-50'' according to Karl Dorrell. Since Markey isn't likely to play, Christian Ramirez and Chane Moline will share the backup tailback's load. The two have 13 carries between them this season.
Pitre is definitely out for this game and perhaps longer. He experienced swelling in his knee after limited work in the Oregon State game.
Dorrell said the swelling has gone down rapidly with Markey but that he still can't do anything.
Also, Marcus Everett did some work on the side and could play.
Nikola Dragovic's groin injury didn't allow him to do much at practice Wednesday, so his status for SAturday is in doubt.
Shannon Tevaga worked with the second team again and should be ready for Notre Dame.

Looks like Ramirez will get those carries that some bruin fans have been asking for. As long as we win I don't care who carries the ball.
