... it's not even close.

NFL statistics produced this season by alumni of college football's major conferences.
("Non-FBS" includes all schools outside the Football Bowl Subdivision):

Since we have 14 teams, that might be a bit biased.

Those figures are from the 2011 season, the last full season the NFL had to offer up stats.

Therefore, it is for only 12 SEC teams as it was pre-expansion numbers.

I find it very interesting at all of the talent coming out of the NON FBS teams. Those NFL scouts work their asses off in finding talent on the non traditional teams.

That also means that the FBS is whiffing on some serious talent too when they are coming out of high school.

- Surprised SEC dominates in passing yards.

-ACC shows good individual talent once again, but their teams are terrible in comparison

- PAC12 and BIG10 are close, with PAC12 getting the offensive numbers and BiG the defensive.

- ACC is fourth on the offensive side, but jump to a strong second on the defensive side.

I don't know that they're necessarily whiffing on those guys. How many of those kids end up being transfers from major schools (for various reasons, not always positive) or non-qualifiers/kids who couldn't get into a FBS school academically I wonder?

Well, the SEC QB's that are playing, are all pretty good (and pass heavy)
The Mannings
Stafford
Newton
Cutler

Though, if it's 2011 numbers, no Peyton.

I would venture to guess that at least half of that non-FBS production is coming from stud players who were kicked off their teams and went the Isiah Crowell, Janoris Jenkins, Bryce Brown, etc route.

2012 will have a huge class of SEC talent added, remember there were nine from the SEC that went in the first round.

Plus the numbers will reflect some players, like Manning for instance, that returned.

A&M and Mizzou players will not reflect until the 2014 stats come-out ... but they'll probably cause a drop in stats rather than an increase.

To that point, there are also some guys who have late growth spurts or who have other factors that just make them different players in college.
