I'm waiting to see what Mauk does before forming an opinion on that part of it. I think it had as much to do w/ constantly running for his life as it did playing hurt.

You guys saw the update... this is a shoulder sprain, not a grade 2 separation as originally thought, right?
Much different situation.

Agreed. He's terrible when dinged up. He will be off on all of his passes, no way would I chance it.

The thought of this season devolving into last season just depresses the hell out of me. I don't want 6-0 turning into 8-4 and playing in the No1Cur.com Bowl.

That would be just like 2006, started 6-0 with Daniel as a sophomore and only won 2 more games, lost to Oregon State on a 2 point conversion, that was an awful year.

Devil's advocacy: Franklin may be more motivated to play with abandon (and maybe even take an aspirin) this year since he'll know that a potential shot at the NFL is riding on the line. That motivation, if present at all, was less urgent last season.

I don't think it would be a case of Franklin playing hurt at that point. I agree that I would rather see a 100 percent Mauk than an unhealthy Franklin.
Seems like Pinkel and co. think he can be 100 percent recovered, quickly, at this point. And there's a big difference in treatment/recovery, too ... he's apparently accepting any and all treatments to get back on the field (KK was right on that one, I think).

Yes, sounds like he is accepting all treatment advised by the medical staff.

What was his deal before? Simply personal preference? Religious element (no clue what, but...)?

Not apples to apples.
Before he didn't want to take a shot to mask pain and hurt his arm further by playing. Now he is agreeing to all treatments in order to get well.

Is either team going to score more than 17 on Saturday?

I figure Florida can comfortably put up 14 on Missouri's defense. I think you also need to account for seven points that Mauk's inexperience will likely give them. The target score should be 24, not 17.
