Earl and Art on the 1980 Playboy All-American Team. Of note: Collinsworth's sexy, sexy legs.Note, a few of the following links go to playboy.com. Although the pages linked-to don't necessarily contain the naughty-naughty, we wanted to give you a heads-up should you be reading this from work.
Count Playboy among those not buying the Georgia hype. After the AP followed the coaches poll placing the Bulldogs in the top spot, the venerable lad's mag didn't even see fit to include Georgia in the top five (Playboy and Phil Steele -- more in common than you thought). Instead, they like the Sooners with Ohio State, Florida, Missouri and USC filling the two through five spots.
They're definitely not high on the Big Ten outside of the Buckeyes. Wisconsin checks in at 14th, with the Illini pegged at 21st. Being kind enough to bless us with a top 50, they like Michigan at 31st, Penn State at 32nd and Purdue at 36th. Also, I can't put words to the smile I got when I saw traditional powers Florida State, Miami and Notre Dame at 43rd, 47th and 49th, respectively.
They also have photos up of their 2008 All-American team with Laurinaitis and Jenkins both repping the defensive unit. And while the initial reports of USC's linebackers dwarfing Laurinaitis may have been a little exaggerated (see photo #5 in the gallery), Taylor Mays is pretty burly for a safety.
On the offensive side of the ball, both Knowshon Moreno and James Davis are fine running backs, but if there's a reason Beanie didn't make this team, I'd love to hear it.
I did get a little side-tracked on the site and it had nothing to do with the beautiful women surely just a click away. Playboy has posted photos of past All-American teams and there are some classics: Hollywood Cris Carter in 1986, Coop, Plummer and Diggs bringing the black shirts on the '99 team, Herschel Walker's socks in 1981 and old time football in 1996.

James Davis? He'll be lucky to break 1000 yards this season, because he won't be able to keep CJ Spiller off the field.
Also, I think Phil Steele and Playboy have a lot in common. As in like, five hours alone together on Sundays.
That's right. Phil Steele "cheats" on college football with Playboy magazine. You heard it here first.
I think that dudein the top right played 3rd base for the Bad News Bears.
Is that Jarvis Redwine sitting just to the right of Art? I always thought he had one of the funniest names for a football player. With a name like that, he was destined for the tennis court, not the gridiron.
Curse content filters!
Cushing is in fact huge.
But check out the fact that he is blatantly standing on his tip-toes....
Funny, he is standing up on his toes. He's a former defensive end, so he's going to be a big backer. That means JT needs to force him into covering Saine out of the backfield.
