Hi Kathy,
One reason I suspected Stalk Borers is that there appears to be some evidence of stalk damage in your photo. To see this better you really do need to click on the photo to enlarge it, and hit F11 to remove your browser's headings. Hit F11 again to restore your browser's headings.
The red arrows indicate suspicious areas.
