• Taysom Hill has once again been lost for the season, which means that he is unfortunately done at the collegiate level. BYU's exciting win on a last-second Hail Mary over Nebraska came at a huge cost, as preseason Heisman Trophy contender Hill suffered a mild sprained ankle early in the game but was able to eventually return. However, in the fourth quarter, Hill slid short of the first-down marker on a third-and-long play, and he ultimately limped off the field and went to the locker room. After throwing for 268 yards, rushing for 72 more and accounting for three scores, he left the game with a Lisfranc foot fracture. Hill has been one of the more exciting players in recent BYU memory, and it's a shame that college football fans were unable to see a healthy Hill throughout his career. Backup Tanner Mangum finished up the game and tossed the Hail Mary pass to Mitch Matthews that won the game for the Cougars. By the way, BYU’s win in Lincoln snapped Nebraska’s 29-game winning streak in season openers, which dated back to 1985. Florida now has the longest active streak in FBS at 25 games.
• In addition to Hill being out for the year, star Pitt running back James Conner will miss the season as well. He left Saturday's 45-37 win over Youngstown State after tearing his MCL. He was the centerpiece of the Panthers' offense last season, as he rushed nearly 300 times for 1,765 yards and 26 touchdowns.
