    Geez I need to proof read. I did it again on the last sentence. I said "I was beating on you" for the word NOT again.

    did the Big 12 last year feature the greatest collection of QB talent in college football history? They had 3 QBs taken in the 1st Round of the last draft (RGIII, Tannehill, Weeden), which is the first time in history that 3 QBs from the same conference were all taken in the 1st Round... and then you can add Landry Jones to that... he would have been a 1st Rounder had he declared for the draft

    over the last 5 drafts, this is the 1st Round Draft pick QBs from the Big 5 conferences:

    BIG 12
    Robert Griffin III, 2012
    Ryan Tannehill, 2012
    Brandon Weeden, 2012
    Blaine Gabbert, 2011
    Sam Bradford, 2010
    Josh Freeman, 2009

    SEC
    Cam Newton, 2011
    Tim Tebow, 2010
    Matthew Stafford, 2009

    PAC
    Andrew Luck, 2012
    Jake Locker, 2011
    Mark Sanchez, 2009

    ACC
    Christian Ponder, 2011
    Matt Ryan, 2008

    Big Ten
    none

    That was pretty much my point. I think that LSU had the best secondary in the country but it IS up for reasonable debate. For one thing, a lot of people thought Alabama had the best secondary. For another, LSU got destroyed by West Virginia and even though I think the def coaches sort of screwed that up by playing soft, I doubt West Virginia threw for more yards against anybody the entire season. And remember when LSU played like 3 straight SEC games where the starting QB wasn't playing against them...Florida, Tennessee, and Auburn. The announcers even brought it up almost like the voodoo is working overtime this season.
