I know, I know only a concussion right? Watch Best leap over a defender en route to six only to have his flight plan deviated by safety Cameron Collins.

Best crash landed. The brunt of the impact was absorbed by the back of his lower head and upper back. Gravity is a bitch.I’m an optimist, but when that clip was shown during Alabama-LSU (or was it Georgia Tech-Wake or tOSU-Penn State, to be honest I can’t remember there was a lot of flipping and early beers) I thought the worst. Concussions are nothing to fuck with, but that type of hit, the one so catastrophic you’ve never seen before or will see it again, is the one you watch and think to yourself how is he going to get up from that?

Best was administered oxygen, had his jersey cut off him, was carted out of Memorial Stadium and taken to the emergency room.

Best had movement in all of his extremities, Cal spokesman Herb Benenson said. Benenson also said that a preliminary evaluation showed Best sustained a concussion, but more tests were being done before a final diagnosis would be announced by the school.

That’s the good news. The bad news is this is the second concussion Best suffered in the last eight days. And that could very well be the only thing that slows him down.

Here’s to a speedy recovery.
