Okie State lost to a team that finished the regular season 6-6 and finished 8th in the conference. They were out-gained on the ground and through the air. They turned the ball over 5 times. That's a pretty big factor in the minds of the voters.

Round 1: Barkevious Mingo, OLB LSU
All signs are pointing to Mingo being the selection IF there isn't a top LOT available to replace Jermon Bushrod. The OT might be hard to land in Round 1, and if Mingo is still here the Saints will not allow him to pass through their hands....
