      I want to say that is from 1776...
      As for me, I don't now which way I will be going with my vote. Maybe I should just vote for the player that will look best on the Dev Team t-shirt that's made at the end of the project.

      FSU vs. Alabama is 1-2
      FSU vs. Auburn is 4-13-1
      FSU vs. Oklahoma is 1-5
      FSU has never played Washington.

      I think Locker gets your vote by default.

      I voted but never shared my two cents...

      DeMarco Murray - Great player and an all-time great for one of the top programs in college football.

      Nick Fairley - Great player who stepped up on the biggest stage, the BCS National Championship Game

      Jake Locker - Embodies college football, stayed all four years and led his team from a winless season to a bowl victory his senior season. I think he loses some luster given some poor showings his senior season as well as backlash from ESPN 'experts' still proclaiming him a top notch QB despite those horrible outings.

      Mark Ingram - Had an average senior season, but helped lead the Tide to the 2010 title and was very humble in winning the Heisman that season. I think his attitude and spirit place him as a great ambassador for college football. Given his accomplishments on and off the field, he gets my vote but I like all four of these guys.

      I voted Jake Locker, but I'm not a fan of any of the choices - he's just the lesser of the 4 evils, in my opinion. Fairley played for Auburn and is possibly one of the dirtiest players I've ever witnessed. Mark Ingram played for Bama - enough said. Demarco Murray played for OU - enough said.

      Although I think they are a bit off on that statement.

      A Husky will never be on the cover of my Xbox football game as long as my vote counts! I couldn't stand to look at any of their mugs for a whole season, every time I pick up a game that I love. Booooooooo

      There is a vast difference between paranoia and just flat thinking Social Media is dumb.
