    Did anyone leave with a serious injury and not reenter the game except Loston? Did T-Bob come back in? Rueben Randle still appears to have a slight limp at times also.

    According to the WVU fans, all the injuries were faked...

    Almost all of the injuries were faked by LSU.

    No lie.

    Only the offensive ones would I take seriously (and Loston on ST).

    It's a great tactic and something every team does. We looked pretty good doing it, as opposed to the NY Giants.

    I didn't notice if Hebert came back in, but I did see him walking around, laughing, etc. during the post-game interviews so I suspect he's fine.

    most if not all the defensive players returned so they may have faked many.

    tbobs looked bad. i think hes toast.


    loston clearly had a concussion. his eggs got scrambled pretty good.

    I saw on the stats or in an article that Hairston was kicking off, so after that bungled extra point where Alleman slipped then started limping, perhaps Alleman was having more pain with that MCL. I've always despised artificial turf, granted it's better than it was in the 70's, but I think of it as a knee-killer anyway.

    he kicked off from the beginning hence the improved kicks.

    Again, you may be right, tirk (re: Hebert) as I can't say that I noticed if he came back in...but I did see him walking around after the post-game interviews.

    As for Loston...well, that's a play that is a perfect example of a player using poor form tackling. Looked more like a "stinger" the way his head was pinched sideways though. Keep your head up, Loston! Don't look at the guy's shoelaces when you're going to hit him!

    was terrible tackling. you see it often actually. almost always results in injury. pretty sure i saw his brain bounce around though. sure concussion if you saw his eyes.

    Could be both.

    On topic of form tackling though...I looked like our history of poor tackling the past few seasons was finally corrected for the most part....then tonight happened. :rolleye33:
