Has he played his last college game? I sure hope not.

I assume if there is even the remotest possibility he can be effective at all they will shoot him up and brace the living daylights out of his knee.

Is that fair to GG knowing he has a possible shot at the pros?

I'd say it's his call, but then again you don't want another RGIII situation.

We have about a 0% chance of beating UCF if GG is out

True, I know we can get kind of selfish as fans. GG has done a lot for us this year even if he did not play.

I would like to think the medical staff will be smart about it obviously...

He had a very noticeable limp at the Houston game. He is a tough kid, but I would not hold out a lot of hope. If he is not able to move well he is only setting himself up for a very bad injury. Hope he can go but I doubt he will.

Thanks for that. I was hoping that someone who saw him would comment. I'm guessing it's more of a 4-6 weeks thing. If I were him, I would not want to risk another more severe injury. Best thing this team can do to pay him back would be to beat UCF and we get into a late bowl game and he can go out with a bang. If Louisville beats Cincy, maybe UCF comes out flat. But I'm not expecting it.

After watching 2 quarters of the onslaught first hand on Friday I diverted most of my attention to watching GG limp on the sidelines. Judging by his extreme lack of mobility it would be very unlikely that he plays Saturday IMO

I hold out no hope for seeing Gilbert play for the Ponies again. Had he played against Houston, we might have had a chance. Without him against UCF, things look bleak.
