    Yeah, it looked REALLY bad. As soon as he landed I didn't think he'd be okay. That helmet flipped off like it was nothing.

    Hopefully his back didn't break.

    I hope he didn't break a few ribs and puncture a lung; never know with them having to get oxygen. His whole left arm just went limp as he hit the ground and rolled onto his back - it was painful to watch, and I hope he is okay.

    And now Riley is down.

    But at least he's just stunned.

    They keep showing the replay of the Best fall and it is just gruesome.

    Thank goodness. I'm happy to win the game if we can, but I don't want to do it at the cost of a young man's livelihood.

    Glad to hear he's doing allright. I could tell at the Ducks vs. Cal game, despite them only putting up 3 points, that Jahvid Best was one outstanding football player.

    Wow. He's moving and hopefully it's nothing serious. He's a warrior.

    Apparently he had a concussion on Wednesday too.

    Concussions are serious business that, by far too many people, are taken as just a minor injury.

    Does anyone have a video of the play? I wasn't watching the game.

    Hope he gets better and it's not serious.
