Greg Nosal, a redshirt junior guard at Virginia Tech, thought he cut his finger really badly after throwing a block. It hurt, but nothing the 6-foot-6, 293-pound beast couldn't handle. It was only until his finger started bleeding profusely that he first considered getting help, and it was only when a trainer whisked him off to the locker room and told him to lie down that he realized part of his pinky finger had been ripped off.

And it was only after Nosal agreed to have the finger put on ice, took a painkiller, had his hand bandaged, and re-entered the game that fans realized how tough—or crazy—the Hokies’ offensive lineman truly is. Yep, that's right: his finger was ripped off, but he kept playing and waited until after the game to have it reattached. Nosal was fairly nonchalant about the whole incident, shruggingly stating, "I guess it's a big deal if your pinkie got ripped off."
