I talked last week about how Florida State QB Christian Ponder came through against Miami despite not having his best stuff, battling and showing leadership in leading his team to victory. Unfortunately, his struggles were a sign of things to come and Ponder strumbled badly last week against Boston College.
What could be causing Ponder's struggles and where does he stand on the draft board at this point? What questions does another quarterback prospect face? And which Pac-10 defensive prospects face a big test in Week 8? Todd McShay has all the answers for ESPN Insiders.
