Taysom has suffered two major, season ending injuries to his lower extremities. It sounds like the most recent injury was considerably worse than we had initially believed. I doubt that he is back to 100%. Admittedly, Taysom at 95% is better than 80% of D-1 quarterbacks, but what about Taysom at 90%, or 80%. I'm just not ready to get my hopes up yet.
Plus, even in a down year, beating Nebraska in Lincoln is a tall order. We think beating us in Provo is tough; Nebraska in Lincoln is an order of magnitude tougher.
So.... what can you do? Hey, Go Cougs!
