It seems as if players aren't the only ones who need to worry about suffering an injury during the 2014 NCAA Tournament.

Case in point: Puddles, the Oregon Ducks mascot who apparently lost an eye during his team's defeat t0 the Wisconsin Badgers.

Sitting on the sideline, Puddles could be seen interacting with somebody (possibly team-affiliated?) attempting to put his cloth-like eye back in place, but unfortunately it was too far gone.

Thankfully Puddles reemerged from halftime completely stitched up and looked no worse for the wear.
