This I have to point out is homerism. You mock LSU's top athletes, but you look silly doing so. Its not these recruiting services that prove LSU has the best athletes, its the pro football scouts and coaches who draft the majority of LSU players.

I mock no one. LSU has had great athletes, teams and has won NC's. But please, you have only had one more first rounder then us since 2000. 12 v. 11 So don't think you are the only ones that produce talent. Btw... the 2014 SB MVP (Wilson) and the 2013 NFL Defensive POY (Watt) are former Badgers. You can also throw in the best O-lineman in the NFL(Joe Thomas), he was also a Badger.

Melvin Gordon was just named #10 best player in CFB by NFL.com. Is it really a stretch to say he is going to be the best athlete on the field? I think not.

As far as homerism goes...I predicted LSU would win a close game. But I am not the one saying a kid fresh out of HS, that has never played a down of college ball, is the #1 player in the country...you did.

Let me tell you that living in Big Ten Country, Wisconsin fans are the most delusional fans in the country. Their coach left for a better job at Arkansas and they still can't get over it. Wisconsin fans have no sense of reality and have an over-bloated opinion of their program. They have never finished as high in the season ending rankings in the last 20 years as Ohio State and Michigan State most recently and yet they think they have an elite program.

The only two teams in the big ten that can compete with LSU are Ohio State and Michigan State.
