| Something said I didn't like....
I don't like when people compare two college teams to the NFL. That right there gives players the big head and we have seen what they can do.
College players have not proved ANYTHING and as far as I am concerned with the NFL. The announcers just need to SHUT UP and just call the game instead of giving us information we don't need or care about.

| I believe he is referring to when one of the announcers said that watching SEC defenses is like watching NFL defenses. Something like that. | |

I personally think that when they do things like that when the players hear it they automatically think about where they will go in the draft when they come out and what they will have to accomplish to do that. Unforunatley not everyone will make millions in the NFL but the players who play AS A TEAM and not as individuals (Like T.O.) will be remembered in the fans hearts.
I just think that no one should be able to leave until after they graduate personally.

That's just my personal opinion though.
