Well you guys have a more proven QB.

Defense is a toss up though.

I'd disagree. OSU's defense is better, but USC's offense has more firepower. Edge to USC as it is at home.

Not according to polls and the "experts".

Some blog I read tonight had UGA going 8-4 this year.

Georgia's schedule is brutal Prime. That's probably why.

I was just listening to PTI from yesterday and I heard them guessing the margin of victory for the USC game. Kinda funny to hear them talking about how badly Oregon will be beaten when you've already heard about the huge upset. I did laugh at USC's misfortune.

Well, Gators are the National Champs. That was a good game last night - the only college game I watched all year.

So, does anyone think Tebow stands a chance in the NFL? We saw what became of Leinart and Young...

I think if he has half a brain he'll finish out at Florida where he's a hero.
Lap up the life another year 'cause he will never have a glorious pro career.

The Ball State Fighting Cardinals Fighting Football Team [© Letterman] won their first 12 games and then sucked their last 2. However, them being ranked 12th in the BCS at one time? AWESOME.

'Bout Tebow, he has tremendous upside for the NFL, he just hasn't been prepared to be an NFL QB. Some team could draft him and put in the work for couple years at QB and groom him into being a QB, or he could come in and play TE or H-Back right away.

Tebow wouldn't last 3 games in the NFL unless he seriously changes his style of play. Scrambling is fine, but get your ass on the ground before you get killed, he'd be hurt in his first start if he tried that shit.

So last night I was walking downtown for some pizza at like 1am with some friends of mine,
and someone said, "I'm so hungry I could eat a whole pizza."

I said, "I bet I could eat 100 pizzas," and no one understood me. I was sad.

He obviously won't be lining up as a running back at quarterback and throwing occassionally in the NFL. They'll have to help transition him from "throwing the ball" to "precision passing". But, he has the arm-strength to make the leap.

However, I think H-Back is where he'll end up.

Tbow is not big enough to be a good tight-end, and he could never NEVER make it as a halfback in the nfl.
He will fade away into mediocrity in pro's

H-back is not a halfback. It is a sort of mix between tightend, fullback, and wide receiver. And Tebow most certainly has the size to play tight end in the NFL at 6'3 240. Dallas Clark, who you should be very familiar with is 6'3 250, and he is an excellent tight end.
