    Jones's comments about no one ever facing the challenges they had in 2016 made me reflect on injuries the last few years. He's actually had a lot of luck with injuries to our opposition.

    2013
    UGA - Basically the entire UGA starting lineup was sidelined
    SC - I believe Connor Shaw may have had some injury, but not sure.
    Vandy - Very beat down by injuries, including starting QB

    2014
    UF - I think Driskell got hurt, starting QB missed a quarter

    2015
    UGA - Chubb misses entire game save one play
    USC - seems like they had a few injuries. Also interim coach.

    2016
    UF - minus starting QB and best offensive weapon Calloway got hurt mid game. Could perhaps say they were without two QBs considering what happened to Grier.
    UGA - was Chubb hurt again?

    That's off the top of my head. Wondered if there were any more. UGA seems like the team that's been bitten by the injury bug as bad as anyone. Kind of weird that Florida has managed to win the division twice now without their #1 QB for a good part of the season.

    You guys recall any other major injuries?

    Michel was hurt and Chubb wasn't 100% all last year
