Orange Tarheel pretty much nailed it in his reply.You could not see it on TV, but you had a DL go down (number13) after a 10 yard run to set up first and goal. He took a couple stpes toward the new line of scrimmage, looked to the sideline, went to the ground and grabbed his hammy. It looked like he flopped by getting the message from the sideline. We have had to deal with SEC teams faking injuries to slow down the HUNH, and that was basically the ONLY thing that we had working last night. After that, it looked like a couple of injuries, minor in nature, would occur when we got to the red zone.

As for Estime, I can't remember when he got hurt. If it happened close to the red zone, that would be why. It was looking like a pattern that when we got close to scoring, injuries would occur. Hate to hear that he is on crutches.

The booing of the offensive player being injured is just plain bad. Wish it hadn't happened. Pretty much exasperation and frustration combined with the earlier perceived fake injuries.

It is becoming a problem (both the flopping to slow down HUNH, and the resulting boos). Either the sport needs to get rid of HUNH, or something like increasing the number of plays that a person has to sit out after leaving the game with an injury needs to be instituted.
