    Clausen is the most accurate passer in college that I have seen in a long time and consider how good he might be if he had a top OL and running game to compliment him. Instead he's pretty much a 1 man show and doing it with a bad wheel.

    Golden Tate is amazing, but is he the prototypical type of reciever that the NFL drafts in the 1st round? He's fast but not a burner, he's not a smurf but he's not even 6' tall. I sort of think of Peter Warrick (with out the character issues) he looked so great in that FSU offense but when they got him to the combine he wasn't nearly as fast as everybody thought he was, and I don't think he ever made much impact as a NFL player.

    The guy who I thought would have a great year (besides Floyd) is Kyle Rudolph but he really has become some what invisible hasn't he. It could be that Charlie is going max protect so much and using him as a blocker so much that his offense stats have suffered.

    Rudolph has a total of 20 yards receiving in the last two games. he is being held back to block a lot. Our five man front had trouble containing a three man rush at times from BC.

    I was at the game Saturday in the SE end zone. Early in the game, Clausen was on the run to his left and threw a thread-the-needle pass to Tate who was surrounded. My friend's and my jaws dropped to the ground. We looked at each other and said at the same time, Did you see that?

    I agree, Terry.

    Sid,

    I know exactly the play you are referring to.

    Sitting in a house full of Tide fans watching Bama on the other TV, I was a one man show on the main TV (hey, its my house).. When Clausen made that throw I said (and I mean this) there are maybe 10 guys in football who can make that throw and 9 of them play in the NFL.

    Don't feel bad about the jaw dropping. Until Mt Cody blocked the FG in the Tide game, that pass was the topic of conversation among them for the day.

    I'd never seen that list, thanks George!

    I actually found an Aggie in the mix! Von Miller is the #6 DL.
    I guess Fran couldn't screw up EVERY player eval.
    Oh wait... he had Von as a "read and react" LB.

    Idiot...

    Honestly, I think AJ Greene should be a lot higher. Without him, Georgia loses at least 2 more games.
