The Irish are in for a battle today. Seeing as how my Dad is a USN veteran...Go Navy!!!!! Didn't know they cracked the top 25. Good for them! Why this game isn't a sellout is beyond me. Should be a good game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quoting myself but I just figured out..maybe all the IU fans finally moved back over to support our football team....our support has been the only thing keeping ND football afloat lol!!!!

Seeking6 Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 Tua carted off field in Bama game. Not sure if hip or ankle but that looked like the last time we'll see him playing college football. Up 35-7 given an injury earlier in the game I'm sure folks will ask why was he still in? CFP might get bailed out. They factor in injuries for teams....meaning if Tua can't go they could downgrade Bama from here on out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess they figured they needed to run up the score due to play Western Carolina next week. They were gonna drop due to schedule, now they're done. Feel sorry for the kid.

Leathernecks Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 It is sounding like the Tua injury is really bad. Some early things are saying recovery could be at least a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post isn't about the injury or the player or anything else related to today.....but if I'm a NFL GM I'd gladly spend a 2nd or 3rd round pick next year on this kid.

Maybe, maybe a late first round pick by the Patriots. After that no way I could spend an early pick on a player with the severity of these injuries.

NotIThatLives Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Espn radio, not sure who they were said aboit an hour ago, this may be the same injury that finished bo Jackson's career.

Any actual confirmation or just speculation? From what I've been able to gather, the problem with Bo Jackson's injury is that there was a disruption of blood flow to the area which is called avascular necrosis. It causes the bones to weaken which is what caused Jackson's retirement. It sounds like one of the biggest things to prevent that from happening is getting the hip back in place quickly, and precisely so nothing more gets damaged. From what I read, it isn't likely to show up for a month or two, so it is probably hard to tell at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proud2BAHoosier Posted November 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 I don't understand the rankings. The Irish go to Duke and beat up on them and drops a spot. Next, they destroy a ranked Navy team and still no movement? Crazy...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 So with #1 getting to choose where they go....Fiesta or Peach (Atlanta) it will be very, very interesting. If your LSU and you get #1 but you might face #4 Georgia...wouldn't you head to Fiesta? Same could be said for Ohio St. Would you play #4 in Atlanta or just head West. Interesting wrinkle is all I thought. People say #1 seed will be fine....could end up playing a true road game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UGA is out(unless it's crazy close). To answer your question.. no I would not play UGA in ATL for the 2nd time in 4 a week span. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will get a kick out of this...I read an article yesterday that said the odds were that if Notre Dame went 10-2 that they would get left out of a New Year's Six bowl. The irony is that with current projections that either Virginia or Va Tech would play in the Orange Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
