The more I watch Luck the more I'm beginning to think he's overrated. Whenever he's relied on to beat teams he has looked average - perhaps good - but not very good or great. There are few decent QBs who couldn't put up impressive efficiency numbers with a running game as good as Stanfords. But when the run game isn't working and Luck has to beat people by throwing down the field, I just haven't been blown away. I'm not convinced he's going to be a top 5 NFL QB.

I agree he deserves A LOT more consideration, but people are taking him for granted because Joseph Randle and Justin Blackmon are great weapons sadly.Originally posted by CardiacCoug View PostI wouldn't be as opposed to an Oregon-LSU rematch for the NC as I would to an Alabama-LSU rematch.
Another random thought: Why isn't Brandon Weeden getting more Heisman pub? He plays for an undefeated #2 ranked team from a major conference and he has great numbers. If Luck lays an egg here and with Kellen Moore losing I think Weeden deserves some serious consideration.

I'm biased, but I think the Ducks are the 2nd best team in the country. The problem is they played the best team. I have a small amount of hope that the Ducks get in the MNC game, but right now I'm expecting Rose. Ducks have to win their bowl game this year.Originally posted by CardiacCoug View PostI wouldn't be as opposed to an Oregon-LSU rematch for the NC as I would to an Alabama-LSU rematch.

Arkansas could give LSU a run for its money...should be an interesting game here as the season winds down."They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

I wanted to say this last week but it would have sounded like sour grapes. He is a great QB but I wonder if he is overrated. If they lose tonight to the Zeros, get ready for the rumors of him coming back for one more year. Adios Heisman, too.Originally posted by smokymountainrain View PostThe more I watch Luck the more I'm beginning to think he's overrated.

More Productive.

I'm glad Brandon Weeden's Heisman hype is gaining strength. Let's hope they beat OU for the Bedlam game though. That will be a shootout.

Arkansas usually does. And Georgia ain't no picnic.Originally posted by DrumNFeather View PostArkansas could give LSU a run for its money...should be an interesting game here as the season winds down.
LSU came out flat today and it showed. They can only do that against one more opponent this year.Awesomeness now has a name. Let me introduce myself.

The grass been more of a problem for the Cardinal tonight than for the Ducks. And, man, those Ducks can fly.I have nothing else to say at this time.

It was against SC that I first noticed this. If I had to have a QB just drop back and throw to beat somebody, there are probably 5-10 college QBs I might take over Luck, and Barkley may be one of them.Originally posted by TripletDaddy View PostI wanted to say this last week but it would have sounded like sour grapes.
