    Land back in warm weather with another win. Team looked good. Some dudes I've never heard of getting sacks is nice.

    They've said they consider injuries before but of course only to boost a team who may have lost with a key injury (ala Clemson a year or two ago). For us, of course, that means they'll predict the future even though we had 600 yards and 38 points tonight. Obviously KZ is a massive hit but actual results have not been affected yet.

    I’m devastated for you guys. Fuck it all.

    I went to school at Omaha before Lincoln and got to see Zach Miller play in college and he was amazing. As a Husker fan I grew to love MM from afar and rooted the shit out of the guy.

    I’m hoping for a recovery at this point. Fuck that shit, fuck it all. The game isn’t bigger than his health and ability to walk. You got us on your side.

    Win out, win out because you should get into the playoff. This isn’t us against you. Those fans suck.

    The best of us wish only the best forward. God damn this game sometimes. Fuck

    Sorry friends.

    That’s a terrifying injury, and anyone considering football ramifications at this point is a selfish asshole. Let the guy keep his leg and be able to walk as naturally as possible.

    Mack isn’t Holman. He’s much more athletic. The more apt comparison from a physical standpoint is Blake, but Mack doesn’t come close to having that it factor Blake had in College.

    Mack's not Milton and his numbers weren't great but he hit the deep pass a few times and was close a few others. Most importantly he's played 2 full games with no turnovers.

    He's not beating Bama but he'll beat Memphis.

    The biggest dropoff with Mack I think is presnap. He's a little slower to get the snap and isn't as sure where he's going to go once the ball is snapped. Couple of qb options or draws and it just wasn't the right option. Milton is always "eyes up" and has had the best awareness of any UCF qb before him.

    My dads a retired sports ortho. He had a baseball patient years ago that had to have his lower leg amputated from something similar.

    His *guess*, which should be taken as nothing more than speculation, was that it’s not just a torn up knee but possibly a spiral fracture of both the fibula and tibula. That’s based on a photo I sent and how long the surgery was (he didn’t get out until 1:55a according to someone on rivals - still in the icu).

    He said when that happens the bones become really sharp and can cut up everything around them. It takes a long time for the docs to clean it up. There were rumors circulating last night that his artery was pinched and not ruptured which is a good thing, but it all comes down to how quickly they were able to restore blood flow.

    People -can- come back from it, especially when there’s millions of dollars on the table, but in KZ’s case... I just don’t know.

    Let’s hope it was just his knee, at this point.

    I know to all of us the football side of this doesn't matter and we all are accepting of the idea that Milton will almost assuredly never play football again.

    But it is frustrating to see the media already saying UCF could drop in the polls after a 38-10 win. This is the G5 treatment. Would they drop ND or Clemson out of the playoff if their QB was hurt but they still won their last few games? It's going to happen and I'm going to be mad as shit about it.

    I think the team can definitely rally this week and take down Memphis. If def can slow down Henderson we are going to Peach/Fiesta again. Then we just have to hope we get a good matchup and even if we lose its an incredible run.

    The defense has given up 6 TDs in the last 3.5 games and 11TDs in the last 5.5

    This was suposed to be our "most difficult stretch" where we were "really tested"

    Don't drop us in the polls when we have the ability to play great defense and run for 400 yards a game if needed.

    He upset because you’re a giant asshole.

    To answer your question though, probably not but we’re not sure. Our backup qb is actually pretty great just different. It all comes down to coaching staff and whether or not they can gameplan appropriately.

    KZ has an “it” factor that allows him to recover broken plays. OTOH Mack might be more inline with the kids Heupel will try to recruit. He seems like maybe a more natural fit for the system.

    And at the end of the day we’re a top 5 rushing team. That doesn’t change.

    We’ll learn a lot with the Memphis game.
