10/11 Loopy

He'll have his chance to sink or swim on Saturday. If they win or lose close and he has a big game, he's legitimately in the discussion.

Either way, at this point, it wasn't ridiculous for Lupica to throw his name in there. And I'm still waiting to hear the evidence, other than the debunked line about "mistakes," that he's "markedly overrated" and "incredibly fortunate."

Fortunate that they haven't played anyone of significance yet? I'll buy that. But that day of reckoning is five days away.

 

he'll have a good game against usc.

as for tebow and the pros, he'll get his time to shine at the combines. he's a tank like roethlisberger. i'd like to see how tebow might run an nfl offense. the odds are 99 percent against him. but he's just the type of kid who might be the 1 percent, and i'd like to see if he can do it.

 

Not to thread-jack further, but you left out Christian Ponder. He's the only guy playing with any heart right now at FSU. 1,781 yards, .677, 9 TDs, only one pick.

 

Greg McElroy is absolutely a better Heisman candidate than

Snead is godawful.

Ponder is better than Clausen.

 

Man, I have never agreed more with the trog
