quote:No, not right. You think NFL players are tired when they get to gametime? They are better trained and conditioned than college players--that does not mean they are more fatigued than college players. I'd wager the opposite is true.
Out of curiosity, I'd love to see if the rate/incidence of injury in the NFL is a lot greater than it is at the primary FBS level.
Because, since the NFL is the elite of the elite, to make it in the NFL it would seem you'd have to work so much longer and harder than you would in college.
And, if you work longer and harder, you will be much more tired.
Ergo, NFL players will be injured at a much higher rate than players in the SEC/B12/B10/P10/ACC.
Right?
The whole point of strength and conditioning training is to improve athletic performance and endurance. I honestly have no clue how you arrived at the conclusion that NFL players must be more tired/fatigued than college players.

Is that right?
So what you're saying is that if the programs playing against the HUNH would just be in better condition, they'd suffer less injuries?
Well... I'll be doggone. Sounds familiar.
