P.S. I'm serious here.
How can someone be overrated when they are a 4 year starter yet they have never made an all-conference team? Nixon is a solid player, I dont think he is on the level of the Poppingas, Kehls, etc. But he is a good player and he is a playmaker.

He has 214 tackles, 35 tfls, 11 sacks, 2 ints, and 6 forced fumbles.

Considering he still has 8 games left of his senior year, I think those are pretty solid numbers.
