With the design of modern helmets, a broken jaw surprises me. What a weird injury in modern CFB.

 

[Cruiser]

Overton out is a problem; we need to get after Stockton

 

[Cruloc]

LT Overton.....man, that hurts.

Cuevas and Jam questionable.......might as well have them as out. Cuevas with a broken foot and Jam, I'm guessing with a bad ankle or lower leg injury.

The young TE's will have to step up.

So will AK Dear at RB.

Man, what a mash unit.

back up Renaud and Keeley will be playing and I believe they will get the job done. it's time to step and shine!

10 players out is WILD.

I hope Dear gets more carries. defense have nothing on him. if the OL can continue to open holes like they did against the barn who I believe have a better front 7 than UGA, watch out.

You seen some of the shots Ty has taken?

He's got such a skinny face that when he takes a shot to his head his helmet almost comes off. I don't know how he's avoided a head injury OR concussion to this point.

on paper it looks crazy, but in reality its really 3 starters ( Overton, Jam, and Cuevas). Riley was playing sparingly when Jam returned, but he brought different set of skills we could utilize. he will be missed too.

I'm family friends with Colbie's mother for UGA. He has been out since the Ole Miss game but he is a big missing piece, literally and figuratively, for UGA's offense. He was the one WR they have that could go up and get it when they needed it. Most of their guys are around the same size as our DB's which should bode well for us.

Agreed on Dear getting more carries. I'm guessing he is a liability on pass pro is the reason he has not seen the field more but going to have to this week. Washington will be getting some touches also.

Yes of course which proves my point about modern day helmets. That is a freak injury. Much different than even 10-15 years ago.

Serious question...can you not play with a broken jaw?

What is the injury with LT?

I’d rather not lol. Guys should not risk long term injury to play in a game *now imo. I love football but quality of life is so much more important.

If it's wired, definitely not a good idea!

Can you even eat solid food with a broken jaw? I thought you had to be on a liquid diet.

BTW, your question made me LOL cause I figured you were JK.

I had surgery on my jaw and was wired shut for about 6 weeks. Everything I ate had to go thru the blender.

Steak thru a blender is something I never want to know what it tastes like.
