There are plenty of wackos that believe the best college football team could beat the worst NFL team.  These people need to be drug tested immediately.

I have routinely turned colors on “The Noe Show” while passionately disagreeing with people who believe that the best college football team could beat the worst NFL team.  It wouldn’t even be close.  How people could think that a group of rookies, filled with amateurs who won’t even make it in the NFL, could beat a pro team is beyond me.

This entire discussion got ramped up again this week when South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier waxed poetic about the Alabama Crimson Tide.  “Alabama, gosh, they look like they could beat a couple of those NFL teams that I’ve watched on Sundays,” Spurrier said.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll was quick to disagree.  “I was confronted with that at times [at USC] and the falsehood is to think that that could ever take place.  It ain’t even close.  It’s not even close.  Alabama’s got a great team and Nick [Saban] is a fantastic coach, but when you matchup the interior lines against regular NFL teams on either side of the ball, it wouldn’t even be close,” Carroll said.

Amen, Petey!  Amen!!  Thank you so much for having your head screwed on straight.  The best college team wouldn’t stand a chance against the worst NFL team.  If you’re getting crushed in the trenches, you’re getting crushed on the scoreboard.
