FSU and USC are number 3 and 6 respectively over the past 5 years recruiting. FSU is funny because aggy bought that fools gold, USC is just sad, the whole place in disarray (except song girls).
Looking at the college injury report list and outside WSU and Stanford the entire conference looks like a triage center led by USC and UCLA with close to 40 players injured. Pretty damn strong correlation between talent level, injuries and performance, FSU is right up there with them.
The 3 service academies have 11 injured between them, navy has over half of them and army has 2 Not much high level talent, but disciplined and conditioned.
Domer is over achieving with their opposition being down, always good recruiting and only 4 injured players this late into the season. There's certainly an element of luck involved in a season as far as injury goes, but it's interesting to look at the injury reports and compare talent level, injuries and records
