Holy shit ND. I can't believe this! Woo hoo!

Another TD!!!!!


"Notre Dame is relevant again". Damn right Brent!!!

OMG, did any of you see the injury Marcus Lattimore at South Carolina sustained. By far one of the worst I've seen in a game.

This poor kid fought back from a season ending ACL last year and was having a great season this fall...until today.

I pray its not as bad as it seems and that he is able to fully recover.

didnt see it live, but yeah, that was nasty.

Man there were some great games yesterday! The results should really scramble the rankings. It will be interesting to see how that plays out. Grats to LT & Dev for their 80%

Here's this weeks results and overall totals so far.

Cobie 7 of 10 = 70% (Season ~ 59 of 90 = 65%)
Lardy 6 of 10 = 60% (Season ~ 56 of 90 = 62%)
Vee 6 of 10 = 60% (Season ~ 55 of 90 = 61%)
Legiontracker 8 of 10 = 80% (Season ~ 58 of 90 = 64%)
Rick 6 of 10 = 60% (Season ~ 57 of 90 = 63%)
Dev-Em 8 of 10 = 80% (Season ~ 51 of 90 = 57%)

Here is the slate of games to ponder this week. I suspect it may be another week of surprises. Please note that the first game is on Thursday night so make sure to get you selection in by 7:30 pm eastern on Thursday! (At least for that game.)

Finally saw this. OMG that looked painful.

Good news is he only dislocated and hyperextended the knee. Done for the season but plenty of others have come back from that injury to have good careers. And trust me, I know about knees.

I do too. It looked worse than that on the replay. his leg really flopped around for a minute and did not look natural laying there.

Glad it's only hyperextended.

Hm. Guy on the radio today said Lattimore might miss 2013, too. Was he misinformed?

Not necessarily. He could be done as well really. Depending how bad it truly is.

Add to his injury to the other knee, it's not out of the realm of possibility that he could be done. It'll be a long road back.

Oh yeah, it easily could. but it could go the other way as well. Odds are, if he does finish his career at USC (which he could, never been redshirted before), he probably wouldn't be a high pick for the NFL.
