They could never beat any NFL team, no matter how bad. Anyone who says otherwise was dropped on their head at birth.

I do think they would shite on the AAF though . The reason being is more depth, the AAF has smaller rosters. You also need exemplary QB play to defeat Bama which the AAF doesn’t have.

Given that none of the AAF teams have any chemistry right now, yes.

I would imagine if one of these AAF teams stuck together and practiced for a year or two straight they'd have the edge.

Most probably if Hackenberg is the QB. Has to be one of the worst QBs ever

They would probably go around .500 in the league. They could definitely win some games but they wouldn’t go undefeated like some retards on the SECr were saying earlier

Since the AAF doesn’t think it’s offenses are competent enough to cover blitzes hence blitzing is banned I am thinking that basically any college team could.

Yes lol.


Quite a few college teams could beat the current AAF teams.

None could even compete against the NFL though.

Yes, but I think other college teams could, too. Not a ton, but some.

These are grown men, similar to the NFL players, but they aren’t the best players in the world.

I always see this line of thinking, and it’s dumb.

A 21 year old elite college athlete is just as physically capable as a 25 year old pro.

Zion Williamson isn’t getting pushed around by anyone in the NBA. Ndamukong Suh as a rookie wasn’t getting pushed around by these “grown men” in the NFL.

It’s a case by case basis. Some 21 year olds need to put on some size, but so many are physically capable already, and it’s just their skills they need to improve to reach their personal peak.

Austin Allen is Salt Lake's backup QB. Yes Alabama could beat these rosters.

I agree. Freakin Arkansas had the biggest offensive line in all of football a few years ago.

The gap between the NFL and CFB is a skill gap - not a size one or even athleticism one.

The five minutes of the Arizona Salt lake game looked like a mediocre college game with a mediocre NFL like lethargic crowd.

Somewhat similarly, one could ask which top notch college baseball teams could beat A 'AAA' team? A 'AA' team?
I'd imagine they could routinely beat 'A' teams.

It’s not dumb.

How many of these elite college athletes do you see on the typical college team at one time? Not enough? Right.

You really brought up these two? Really? Basketball is different, for starters. And bringing up one of the best college defensive linemen of all-time, as if they grow on trees, is ludicrous.

Also, how many 21 year olds do you see on the typical college football team? Maybe ~25% of the team? Maybe 30%?

Bringing up the “grown man” scenario doesn’t just pertain to size and strength.

It's the dumbest logic ever.

Right, it also pertains the poster being a full-blown tard.
