And Michigan still won 8 games, not bad.

Arizona State had some of the worst Safety play I saw all year and still almost beat Texas.

Love to see Cam Skattebo in Colts Blue next season.

They need some backbone!

Their defense will never get the credit it deserves. It should've been a historically good defense but their offense was so awful, the defense was always on the field. They still somehow kept teams from scoring. If UM had a slightly above average offense, they would've won the title.

Yeah. What did you think happened that required surgery?

"Rourke underwent surgery on his throwing hand two weeks ago after breaking a bone in his right thumb."

Never understood it to be broken. Still don't. " " from where? Some media speculation.

Man, it's amazing how stories get embellished in such a short time!...

In a few years some on here will be telling stories about how Rourke played with one arm completely torn off and one leg in a full cast!!

Well his ACL was torn anyway, so we’re not too far off.

Rourke described it as broken at one time. Said bone was what pushed the nail or something. Maybe I heard it wrong, it was in some postgame lockerroom video stuff.

I'm not sure what has been embellished? I assumed it was a very well-known thing that his thumb had a fracture. He had screws put in and with his type of injury, you can usually return within 2-3 weeks. He came back in 2. Maybe I was reading things all wrong, but this is the first I have heard anyone say they thought it was something different.

I also understood it to be a broken thumb from someone inside the organization. That is why they put the screws in. Hard to imagine him coming back that fast but he must be one tough hombre.

Ok, so I'm not losing my mind. The screws are usually out in a couple of weeks and are there to make it heal faster. Most of us wouldn't find any need to go under the knife and would just put a split on which is a longer recovery period. Assuming it was fractured, he did come back on the short end, but I imagine it wasn't close to 100%.
