7 picks > 7 forced fumbles IMO, unless they were all recovered by the D.

To even be in the discussion as a defensive player you have to either score or generate a lot of turnovers. I've got no problem with T'eo being there, especially in such a weak year.

JFF just had the best season any QB in SEC history has ever had, and a top-5 QB season of all time

Comparing LB stats is a fruitless mindnumbing exercise in futility.

For starters, teams with great defenses (ND Top 2 in the country) are not going to be on the field long; teams with great defenses also have other solid defenders making tackles around them.

Additionally, if your team is on offense a lot (ND #11 in Time of Possession) you have even less opportunities on defense to make plays.

Manti Teo is not a Heisman candidate or a Top 10 projected draft pick for his on-field numbers...and for those that get that, props to them.

So sacks and TFL mean nothing as a LB? K cool.
