Pac-10 fans probably will find the Butkus Watch List curious.
Or lazy.
Or clueless.
Two Pac-10 players are on the list.
Neither started last year or, really, saw significant playing time. Both played at USC: Chris Galippo and Malcolm Smith.
Not on the list: Oregon State's Keaton Kristick or UCLA's Reggie Carter.
Both were second-team All-Pac-10 last year.
Also not on the list: Arizona State's Mike Nixon, who tied for the Pac-10 lead with five interceptions in 2008.
California's Mike Mohamed or Oregon's Spencer Paysinger or Casey Matthews would have been better picks than two super-talented but unproven Trojans.
