Well dude. I had what they call the unhappy triad. ACL, MCL, Lateral and Medial Miniscus (cartilidge). MCL ripped of the bone and torn in 2 places. ACL was torn in half too. I was a senior in HS when it happened, during a game. I had a great surgeon, took 1 year off, played one year at a junior college and ended up getting a scholarship to CU. If you tore it, you wouldn't be able to walk unless it was a small tear. Sounds like you hyper extended it. Possibly an ACI.
When I blew out my knee, I knew right away I was fucked. My knee felt like a bowl of Jell-O. The next day it felt like if I put ANY pressure on it, my leg would collapse. But like I said, 5 hours under the knife, both scoped and cut open I was on my way. I ended up getting scar tissue on my knee and couldn't straighten it out all the way. I went back in and had that removed and that was all.
