I'am watching this right now on ESPNU and just saw Xavier Boyce 6-3 215 from Norfolk St catch a deep ball.

I'd rather bring back the old College All-Star Game....

A team of college all-stars played the reigning NFL champs from the mid-'30s to the mid-'70s. And, yes, occasionally the college kids won. Not very often, mind you, but it DID happen. Those things tend to happen when you have acknowledged all-stars at every position...IF their chemistry gels, that is.

Yeah now I remember this Buck Buchanon led a group of college all-stars to a win over nfl players back in the 60s.
