Tank for Tua May be over.  He’s been hospitalized with a hip injury.

Update: Jim Nagy saying fractured hip, possibly career-ending. Heading for surgery tonight OT tomorrow. 

Aw man.  Hope it's not career ending.

Meanwhile, Auburn the latest victim of instant replay reversal BS.  Cost them their season

[Natsinpwc]

I would like to thank the stupid Minny coach for running into the field for no reason and costing his team first and goal and a win. And me money.

WV knocks off #24 Kansas State.

JMU captures another CAA title, 10-1, 7-0 in the CAA, with their only loss coming in week one against WV by 7.

Their QB has a shot at being a late round draft pick.

A couple of flukes in the Ivy yesterday - Yale blowing out Princeton and Cornell upsetting Dartmouth - puts the Bulldogs in position to share the Ivy title with a win over Harvard next week.  Dartmouth had been #12 in FCS after beating Princeton the week before, and crushed Yale for our only loss this year.  I'm thinking of taking the 3 AM train up to New Haven Saturday for THE Game.

I thought Penn was a total disaster after getting blown out by Columbia.  However they have won a couple games now. It’s nice they get to finish up against Princeton. Instead of Cornell. That never made any sense.

Good luck to the Bulldogs.

I hope for their sake they stay FCS. Better to be a big fish in a little pond. I still wish Temple has dropped down and entered the CAA.  The Villanova and mid Atlantic rivalries would be great.

along that lines, kind of like how Appy State is finally getting things going in the FCS.  Just one loss to Georgia Southern but in line to win their division of the Sunbelt.

Scheffler says tua had surgery, three month recovery, expected to make a full recovery.

he'll do some predraft work outs and will still be a top 3 pick.

That’s a hell of a gamble that high (of course the teams picking that high, aren’t picking there as a result of competent front offices)

I would not have taken Tua with a high draft pick even before the hip injury, and I would have cited his injury history as a reason. Love the kid but I don't think he's built to be an NFL quarterback.

If he can't be a top 10 pick, does he go back for another year at Alabama?  I'm sure they pay well.

Almost like taking Dwayne Haskins in round one.

There is a measured gamble and there is Dan Snyder drafting a franchise qb because he didn’t give dan jr wedgies in high school

Yale-Harvard is H15-Y3 @ half-time.Game is delayed by students from both schools taking the field for a climate protest. I suppose if you want attention on national tv, that's one way.  I don't recall a similar action. Pretty interesting they could pull this off without leaking.

You didn’t go?

I'd question it was a complete stunner to security etc, but optics are optics

So they resumed after a 50 minute delay. H goes up 19 on a long run by a freshman. Kid has 242 yards. 4TDs his 1st 6 carries. Y hangs in,puts up 14 in the last 90seconds to tie, 3 minutes before sundown. No lights at the yale bowl.  H hits for a td 1st play in ot. Y scores and kicks. It's now 10 minutes after sunset. H let's y get the ball @ start of 2d ot. Y td, y stops h next possession, so y wins 50-43,and a share of ivy title!

My first football game was the 29-29 loss. I went with my Dad. Said a prayer for him right after the game, then started the Jameson's shots
