Two things must be in place for any championship team - they must be very good, and very lucky. Ask fans of any program, and they can likely list several ill-times injuries to key players that completely derailed a season- especially in college football, where even if that means just a single, nail-biting loss to cost the team a shot at a national championship.
We recently discussed which Penn State injury we would go back and magically heal to keep that player healthy, and how that would have impacted that particular season. To the roundtable!
