<Auburn CB David Irons vs. Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johnson>
A highly touted transfer from Butler County ( Kans.) Community College, the 6'1", 189-pound Irons was slated to start opposite All-America Carlos Rogers last season before tearing a knee ligament in practice. Now, having taken over Rogers's old job, the trash-talking Irons faces a gargantuan first assignment: shutting down the 6'4", 230-pound Johnson, a freshman All-America last season (48 catches, 837 yards, seven touchdowns) whose ability to jump high for the ball reminds many of Larry Fitzgerald.
