re: Can we just declare Alabama the 33rd NFL team and be done with it?

Alabama's starting roster may be 50% NFL talent (and that's being generous). NFL starting rosters are filled with 100% NFL talent.

Actually, this is not true. A lot of NFL rosters are full off players that aren't NFL caliber. That's why awful teams go 1-15 or 2-14. There's other players that get cut after one season that weren't NFL caliber.

I'm not saying Bama would beat an NFL team. Just pointing out that assuming every single player cashing a check in the NFL is magnitudes better than talent at an Alabama or Ohio State is just wrong. The depth of talent is a lot higher in the NFL.

To make it more interesting: what about Alabama's or Ohio State's 85 man roster vs a bad NFL teams 53 man roster?

alabama/osu/any other college team ever would be destroyed by any nfl team ... they have fewer limitations on practice time and the offensive play calling is x100 of bama's/any college team ever ... they could score at will against alabama's defense ...
