That's the thing. You argue just to phuking argue. Scarbinsky has a vote and has voted that Alabama has the best 2 players in the nation on their team. That is bullpoop. Sure, you can make the arguement that McClain and Ingram are this or that, but Scarbinsky has a vote, and he voted McClain is the best player in the nation, and Ingram is the second best player in the nation. THAT is bullpoop. THAT is all I have said. You are argueing just to argue...
And to help you out with your point War Eagle....there are over 10,000 division I players (85 x 120 programs = 10,200 players).
It's just a sign of Skarbinski's ignorance or at least local bias. Most writers stuck in a particular bubble (and aren't all Alabama media memebers?) are guilty of it. He's in Alabama, he watches them every game, so of course he thinks they're the best.
There is probably some moron that covers Texas for the local paper in Nacogdoches, TX and will vote McCoy and Shipley #1 and #2 because out of the 13 college football games he's watched this year (all Texas games), those were the two best players he saw.
RWS and other Alabama fans who have never been to a game will tend to see no flaw in Skarbinski's theory.
