Is Taylor a Sr. ?Just read in Stewart Mandel's Bowl Ranking (he ranks the Gator Bowl #15) that Todd Gurley is "one of the lone survivors of the Bulldogs' 2013 injury extravaganza."
That and this thread made me wonder - why are the Georgia injuries the story line here? Nebraska's had more than its share of injuries. Who all have we lost this year? Help me make this list:
Taylor Martinez - starting QB. Missed eight games, out for the bowl game.
Spencer Long - All-American Guard. Out for the season. Missed seven games
Jamal Turner - starting WR. Hurt sometime around game four. Missed six games. Probably back for the bowl game.
Quincy Enunwa / Kenny Bell - both hurt for most of the latter half of the season, but I don't think either missed a game.
Jake Long - starting TE. Missed four games. Should be healthy for the bowl game.
Jake Cotton - Left Guard. Missed at least two games, but I believe he's been back for the last couple.
Who am I missing? I know I'm missing several on the O Line, who missed at least a game if not more. Did we lose anyone on defense, aside from Thad Randle who was hurt on about every other play but kept gutting it out?

Who cares about who WAS injured. It now only matters who IS injured for the bowl game.
Even though we both may have had more injuries than most teams no one else cares. Especially when we start saying "he was injured but still played" Not trying to be a douche I just think it doesn't matter at the end of the day. But I do see for the sake of the argument....It matters for discussion sake when you look and see that both of these teams were very talented coming into the year but this was a big part of why they didn't meet their expectations. Now, if both teams can get many of them back, we could see two very talented teams back on the field come January 1st.Who cares about who WAS injured. It now only matters who IS injured for the bowl game.
At this point in time, I don't give a hoot what anyone else thinks. I'm having a discussion with people in the Husker and Dawg fan base. Many people in those two groups care. Now, many have claimed this is a boring match up because we are both mediocre teams. I'm saying that, in large part, we are mediocre teams because of our injuries on both teams. If both teams can get a good number of these players back, then we may end up watching two good teams again battling it out.Even though we both may have had more injuries than most teams no one else cares.

But that was do to poor S&C so that's Bo's fault.We had 7 guys with MCL injuries at the same time.
