OT - Marcus Lattimore of South Carolina sustains another serious knee injury

[Deano]

Feel sorry for this guy, just coming back from a serious injury and took a horrid shot a few moments ago against Tennessee. ESPN showed the replay once and hasn't showed it again it was that bad.

you must have just posted before i did, but ya, that was horrible!

 

[Deano]

Yep - you are right. ESPN2 showed it at the halftime of their game and it was ugly.

Was it a legal hit? It wasn't on purpose, right? A fluke?

The video is already on YouTube, several times over. Aren't DVRs wonderful? Seriously, that was one hellacious hit he took. One guy pinned him up while the LB hit him dead in the knee of his plant leg. All of his weight was on that right leg. Then the douche who tackles him picks up the ball and runs with it. He had to have known what his hit did to the guy. I mean, you can feel a leg buckle, right? I guess this guy didn't. The guy who hit him high knew what happened. He looked shocked to see play continuing.

The guy who picked up the ball wasn't the same guy who hit him - looked like a D lineman coming in after the hit.
