This didn't involve an injury before the game, but it probably
caused severe butt-hurt after the game.

1926- Notre Dame at Carneige Tech. The Irish were 8-0
entering the game and had allowed only 7 points all season.
Rockne didn't attend the game. Instead, he sent his team
East while he attended the Army-Navy game in Chicago.

Carneige Tech won 19-0.

Didn’t Bradford get hurt in the rrso that year
Think it was the year before. And it was the very first game against BYU where he injured it. Just tried to come back for that game and reinjured it and never played again at OU.

Would have loved to see that team at full strength because always felt that was one of our best defenses around that time and they single handily kept us in games while the we tried to figure out the offense with a freshman QB, often failing spectacularly.

Just a slew of injuries that year, lost 1 first rounder before the season even started, and another first rounder and Heisman winner in week 1 before halftime.

If Miami fans existed I am sure we would hear a few Willis McGahee 2002.

Don't know about title, but Alabama had a chance in 2005 until the Prothro injury. Whipped the shit outta top5 Florida that game and he shouldn't have even been in the game, but whatever. But never had the same offensive output that season after that and ended up losing 2 games that we should have won.
Prothro is one of those guys who it sucks never got the opportunity to ply in the NFL. Guy was a freak of nature.

If Mike Vick doesn't get hurt at the end of the Pittsburg game in 2000, we may have had a shot. Playing at #3 Miami the following week, we were #2, Miami jumps out to a lead and Vick tries to come in and get some life, but he just couldn't go and we get blown out by 20. If he was 100%, that game is probably a last possession finish and with a win, VT would have went back to the NCG.

Don't know if we would've won that game, but it would've been an exciting end.

LOL, but it's probably true that they would've pulled it out if he didn't get hurt. I don't like to think about that game, I haven't even watched it since it happened.

It would've been a hell of a game with a healthy Vick no doubt, but I think Miami gets it done, IMO, they were the best in the country at the end of that season and if the they didn't get fucked by the BCS they would've beaten OU for the National Championship.

Would have liked to have seen Major Harris at full health in the NC game vs Notre Dame (Frank Stamms, or Mike Stonebreaker cant remember which landed on him on the first series and hurt his shoulder)

I wont go as far as saying we beat the Irish, that was one heluva team (but...who knows) but no question the game woukd have been more competitive at the very least.

I pulled up the play on you tube, saw the clock had 12 minutes left, he caught the screen pass, and I was gone like a fart in the wind.

If Hubert Anyiam stays healthy Oklahoma State wins a natty in 2011. No. 2 WR was lost for the season midway through. He stays healthy we beat Iowa State and play LSU for the title. LSU was dogshit that game so we win in a blowout and Bama fans talk about how they would have kicked our ass if they had gotten the chance.

If Shane Ray didn't get ejected in the 2014 SEC Title game, Missouri upsets Alabama, makes the playoff and runs the table.

(I actually don't believe this, but that's the closest I can think of for the Tigers).

If Mark Brunell doesn't get injured in '91 they don't end up with a split title with those impostor hurricanes.

Am I right @TheDayMan , @RegentDenali , @AlaskaGuy , etc? :noidea:

I mean they finished undefeated anyway, but more style points? :nod:

Hobart going down with an injury in '92 was a biggy. Brunell was good, but Hobart was better imo ... at least in college.

Replace Brunell with Hobart and Washington doesn't lose three out of their last four.

Nah, there wasn’t anything they could do overtake Miami in the media poll. Bunch of horse shit.

Scarbrough in 2016...Clemson couldnt stop him. He gets hurt, we cant move the ball anymore putting our defense back out there for 100 plays....and when you give DeShaun Watson 100 plays bad shit happens.
