LSU: Flynn and Mauck have won BCS crystal balls, right? Flynn isn't done yet but nothing great except a game or two that's made him some money. Mauck is better at molars than the NFL. Russell got PAID but should have been sat behind someone for a few years and going #1, we'll leave that alone. Hodson played a few years but can't give you much on him.

Not much question on this: Y.A. Tittle and Bert Jones are the two LSU QBs who did the most in the NFL.

Most here are way too young to know who Y A Tittle was....he was nicknamed "the Bald Eagle" and didn't have many teeth after just a few years in the NFL. Back in those days it was like ice hockey...guys had arms and legs broken and eyes gouged.
Tittle was one of my favs...with the NY Giants he had some talent around him...Del Schofner, Frank Gifford etc etc. He could throw the prettiest spiral in the business 60 yds and hit em in stride. Giants had a nasty defense back then too, Andy Robistelli (sp) would rip your arm out of socket if you got near him. Back in the early 1960s the SEC was well represented at qb: Tarkenton (UGA), Starr (Bama) were very good. The NFL was not anything like today...sundays I watched black & white tv and when it was late December or in January...the snow on the field would blur all vision on grainey black & white tvs, even with aluminum foil on rabbit ears...lol.
