    35-7 or so, and it could be a lot more if the NFL team decided to keep piling on points. The NFL teams would be dominant on both lines, and the college team would throw pick after pick against the confusing NFL defenses.

    The worst pro team would win by at least 45 points. The average NFL backup is definitely better then the average starting college player.

    A full strength college sports team would never beat a full strength pro sports team...period. Gotta think of how many pro players there are and how many college players there are.

    If pro team has some incentive to win they will win 100% of time.

    I doubt that 09 alabama team would be the Rams

    But a college team i think that could have beat a bad NFL team was the 01 Miami Hurricanes

    That team had Andre Johnson, Clinton Portis, Willis McGahee, Frank Gore, Jeremy Shockey, Jonathan Vilma, Sean Taylor, Ed Reed, Antrell Rolle, DJ Williams, Vince Wilfork

    That's just the guys i can remember. there are probably a few more guys that i can't think of at the moment

    I'm sure the 2001 Hurricanes would've destroyed the Lions or Panthers of that year.

    Ed Reed
    Frank Gore
    Clinton Portis
    Andre Johnson
    Jeremy Shockey
    Jonathan Vilma
    Bryant McKinnie

    to name a few NFL stars from that team...

    Yeah, if I had to pick a team to beat a pro team it would probably be them...considering all the 1st round talent on that team.

    You can list players like crazy from that 01 Hurricanes team, but think of how many of those guys were significant contributors that year. A good portion of the guys that pop out when you look at the roster were marginal guys that season. K2 was still a receiver, Sean Taylor was a freshman backup safety, Willis was officially the backup fullback, and Antrel Rolle, Vince Wilfork, and Frank Gore were all rotation players. Plus, they had Dorsey at QB, who never did anything against pro defenses. They'd stomp just about any other college team put together, but not the professionals.

    It could be done if you took the college aged version of the best Miami Hurricane players since the 1980's.

    Kosar
    McKinnie OT
    Vernon Carey OT
    Chris Meyers C
    Orlando Franklin G
    Brett Romberg G

    James
    Gore
    McGahee
    Portis
    Najeh Davenport

    Irvin
    Andre Johnson
    Reggie Wayne
    Santana Moss

    Shockey
    Winslow
    Olsen

    Jerome Brown
    Russel Maryland
    Vince Wilfork
    Warren Sapp
    (yes, a DL of these DTs hahaha)

    Ray Lewis
    Jessie Armstead pre-injury
    Vilma

    Sean Taylor
    Ed Reed
    Phil Buchanon
    Antrel Rolle (he played CB in college, dominated Larry Fitz 1 on 1)

    All of those guys, say as juniors in college, could beat the 2008 Rams I'm sure.

    What about the worst D1 football team VS the best HS team in the nation?

    0 fer EVERY COLLEGE TEAM

    No college team could beat a pro team. Even the best college teams have only a handful of draft pics every year. Pro teams are made up of the BEST college players. They're ALL bigger, stronger, and faster. Think about how many rookies do even decently in the NFL. Not that many. Even though a bad pro team seems bad, it's all relative.

    Piling on, but yeah. The worst pro players were still among the very best college players. And they have the benefit of having matured physically and having trained at the very highest level.

    Same way I feel, but I'd also add that it would have be an especially bad NFL team. Most years, there just isn't a team that's quite bad enough.
