you know your life has hit a low point when encountering that.

Reminiscent maybe, and I really like this team, but that comparison is way too premature.

Through the first six games the '91 team played two top 10 teams that finished the season highly ranked, including one (Nebraska) on the road. And of course they continued dominating opponents on their way to an unbeaten season and a national championship trophy. That was one of the best college football teams of all time.

This 2016 team has yet to face an opponent that is still ranked. I love these guys, the past two plus weeks have been fantastic, but they're still in #Proveit mode. And what initially looked like a front loaded schedule now looks heavily back loaded. At this point I would be disappointed, but not be shocked, to see them still lose a game or two.

If you asked any of the '91 dawgs, they'd laugh hysterically at the comparison.

Those were bad motherfuckers.

Yeah but the uncle Rico effect will be real if the 2016 dawgs run the table.

This team is full of bad bad men too.

I don't want to compare to 91, but this team has a lot of NFL players.

Certain NFL players: Adams, McGary, Ross, Jones, King, Budda Baker, Victor, Qualls, Gaines, Vea...

Probable: Gaskin, Browning, Pettis, Mathis... Browning seems small, but he's listed on NFL lists as one of the top QB's for his year.

Eldrenkamp will get a shot. I have no clue about Coleman Shelton, but he's a four year starter who has played multiple positions. Bierria might be too small, but at minimum he's a very good college LB. Gardenhire started over King at times last year. I actually think Coleman will be in a camp. The team is loaded.

Pettis seems like a UDFA type that ends up on roster (Seahawks) bet he will replace Kearse.

Mathis will be a late to mid round pick depending on his combine imo.. Gardenhire will play in the league he has size and length *faggy wink*.. Bierra fits today's modern NFL and his size is similar to Bobby Wagner both shorter and athletic..

I bet a couple of our redshirts and some of our young depth will play in the NFL which is scary

Gaskin will play in the league no question
