I've never thought good college teams would do well in the NFL, but I'd have to imagine they'd still outplay the winless Detroit Lions. Although, maybe I'm crazy.Quote:

The best college football team would get beat by the very worst pro team by 4 TDs easy. It wouldnt' be competitive. Even the best college team has people that will be working at car washes making up a significant part of their starting lineup.Quote:

Apparently Carrol is going to Sea. I wonder how much power he will have? I find it odd that they would hire a coach before a GM.
I actually broke it down once while watching the 08 Lions and honestly, I think that year's Florida team could've beat them in one game. I mean, everyone says that a college team can't beat an NFL team, but the 08 Lions couldn't beat an NFL team either.
If you looked at the Lions starting roster that year, just about everyone was a guy who couldn't play for any other NFL team. Yeah, there are players in the 08 UF starting lineup that wouldn't play in the NFL, but there were even more players on the 08 Lions who SHOULDNT start in the NFL.
And finally, the coaching advantage would be enormous. I don't know if you guys really appreciate how pathetic the 08 Lions were in every aspect of football.
It would definitely depend on how the game was played...is it some exhibition game? is there money involved?
Because even the pathetic Lions of 08, would hopefully play with some pride (also guys Calvin Johnson could play on other teams)
I think my brother and I concluded that the only members of the 08 Lions that would've started on the 08 Gators were Calvin Johnson, Leigh Bodden, and Jason Hanson.Quote:
