And if the Midwest had only 5, OSU had 40% of them, both burners.
Well, let's see- in 2007 Ohio State had 2 first rounders- both speed guys (Ginn and Gonzalez) and 9 total picks. 2006 5 first rounders including 2 speed guys, total picked 9. 2005 0 first round, only 3 total picks. 2004 - 3 first rounders- 2 speed guys, 14 total picks.
Last 4 years- 10 first round picks, 35 total picks.
For the same time period(2004-2007):
Florida 2 first rounders, 21 total picks
Miami- 11 firsts, 29 total picks
LSU- 7 firsts, 22 picks
Should I get you Bama, Auburn and Georgia's counts? FSU?
I would bet in that time period Southern Cal is a clear runaway, with Miami, Ohio State, Texas, LSU next in line.
I think the thing with the Big 10 is that most of our speed guys seem to be wideouts. A lot of the southern teams have way more defensive speed than we do.
