Genius to Moron: collegian football edition

These cats got down in a major way in 2006, leading many prognosticators to predict how they would play in 2007, with disastrous results. Here are the notables:
1.Texas QB Colt McCoy's passing - With a 29 TD to 7 int ratio in 2006, the sky seemed to be the limit for McCoy. This year he regressed to a 1 to 1 ratio (16 TDS and 16 ints) and his performance against KSU cost the Horns a chance at the National Championship. His running, however, has improved dramatically, and the kid has a big set of nuts on him. UT still has an outside shot at a BCS berth.
2. Okla. State QB Bobby Reid - At 6-3, 225 with a 4.5 40 yd dash, Reid averaged 250 yards a game and accounted for 30 TDS in 2006. How does he follow that up? By being benched after 2 games.
3. Michigan QB Chad Henne - On what was supposed to be a Big 10 title team, Henne has missed some time, and Big Blue has lost 3 games already. He won't match last year's 2.5 TDS to 1 int ratio this year, and his 2 to 1 ratio in 2007 is misleading, as he has been very average.
4. USC's late game defense - With a great front 4 and the nation's best linebackers, this was thought to be the Trojans' best D in years. The loss to Stanford was inexcusable.
5. Louisville WR Mario Urrutia - Coming off of a 60 catch season in 2006, the 6-7 Urruita was primed for a breakout year in 2007, and a likely early jump to the NFL. He too has missed some time, and his 26 grabs this year aren't going to impress NFL scouts.

We have to remember, folks, these are 19-20 year old kids in some cases, and sometimes they follow up success with pant crapping. In Urrutia's and McCoy's case, they can still right the ship, whereas Reid, Henne and SoCal's D are basically done.
