Michigan 3 All Americans, USC with 0. And yet Michigan isn't #2?

And how is USC ranked ahead of Baylor, UCLA, San Jose St. etc?

Bah. You fail to understand my point.

No he gets the point. It's just a silly point at best.

Agreed. But it is certainly evidence that Michigan has 3 all american players

HEY! I thought people said Troy Smith was undersized. I didn't know his dimensions until now, 6'1" 215 is a good size.

Have you actually looked at size of recent draft picks. He's actually short in comparison to guys like Ben, Eli, Alex Smith, etc. He's on par with Brees and Vick who are on the short side of NFL QBs.

I didn't find the average of all the starting QB's in the league, but it looked like it was around 6'3". I don't think 6'1" is that much shorter.

2" can be a ton when we're talking about 6'7" linemen on both sides of the ball.

Certainly you can be short and still be awesome, but Brees has had some problems this year with balls batted at the line. It also forces bigger drop backs which can lead to more sacks, especially with a mobile QB like Smith.

It's nowhere near a damning trait, but every little bit counts in the NFL, and the league is getting bigger.
