    Concern it's a torn ACL.

    Well that sucks. He can't even play one more year and get healthy.

    Hopefully FSU doesn't hear about this.

    Well most of them are illiterate, so just hope they don't listen to the radio or watch tv.

    Motherducker!

    If we survive FSU, he was our best shot at limiting Cooper's production. It makes the already difficult task of beating 'Bama damn near impossible.

    Oregon paid for a $3mill insurance policy on him.

    Big Hit! However Seisay would be taking over next year anyway and he'll give us a couple extra inches of height out there. Time for him to become a starter just a tad early.


    I think we'll be fine. Had we lost Dargan, Balducci, Walker or Buck, I'd start to get nervous. Hill has been attacked all year to stay away from Ifo so he's battle ready and something tells me we'll rover a bunch.

    The only silver lining is that our secondary is the one area we could afford an injury. That said, sucks for Ifo.

    Darn, I feel terrible for him...

    Someone should call uncle Cliffy... Put him in Mathis' jersey. Seriously though, I wanna see some Charles Nelson action in the secondary.

    I get the feeling this may be where Springs and Seisay let the world know what we have coming next year! Ifo can teach these guys one on one for weeks which will be invaluable too.
