re: JFF is Everywhere

Hype and significance aren't mutually exclusive. Indeed, hype almost always necessarily follows significance.

But I'll pose the same problem to you that Vanilla Coke has avoided: Give me your definition of "significance." Then tell me why why ______ is more significant than JFF.

There is only one thing of significance in college footbal, and that is winning championships. By this definition JFF is not significant. Alabama's punter, whomever the frick that is, is more significant than JFF. And while JFF has a chance of becoming significant it seems more likely at this point that his early success will go to his head and ruin him. The Heisman trophy is little more than a beauty contest, and more often than not indicates a player is destined to fail if he makes it to a championship and fail again at the NFL level.

A&M had a great season, but at this point it's more likely that it was anomaly than it is the start of A&M's rise to dominance. I say this because most teams that jump up from the pack to a 2-loss season tend to fall back to the pack. All of this talk of A&M reigning supreme in the SEC is just talk... and that makes you guys the new Arkansas. Welcome to 3rd place in the SEC west. That's all you've accomplished.
