    I thought Blue was our best RB and the coaches apparently thought so too, which is why he was the starter. We seem to be swimming upstream this year. I'm starting to expect a key injury every week now. I hope Dworaczyk starts playing better than he did against Idaho or we're going to suffer a really key injury.

    We really don't know yet. Les is being evasive and insider stories are mixed. Blue was having a hell of a season, I hope it's only a game or two . . . but it ain't like Les is going to tell everybody.

    Torn ACL my ass. He wouldn't have been able to take two steps on his own, much less walk off the field on his own power.

    The thing is that we have so many quality backs, we can afford to rest guys for non season ending injury's.


    These guys, while they will get nicked, will be fresh for the end of the season.

    Ware, Ford, Hill, Hill2, Blue can all carry the load.

    There is different degrees to an acl tear as to how torn it is, I know lots of people that opted to finish the season playing with a partial tear then fix it in the off season.

    Really strange how coaches are almost sworn to secrecy over this kind of stuff. John L went passed neurotic to insane with his Tyler Wilson, will he or won't he. To a point, I can see how it could be a matter of gamesmanship, but such information or lack thereof ain't winning ball games.

    Don't see how Alabama watching Wilson warm up was changing our mindset or level of performance. John L was grinning for the cameras like it was one of those wait till you see this moment. In the psyche of football coaches, paranoia runs deep.
