Good Johnny vs. Bad Johnny

Even after another highlight-reel stuffing week (426 yards, three passing TDs against Sam Houston State), Johnny Manziel remains a love-him or hate-him but impossible-to-ignore figure. As A&M's showdown with Alabama approaches (Sept. 14, 3:30 p.m.), try to match the opiner with his opinion.

A

"For him to act so arrogant, I wanted to jerk his face mask and I wanted to grab him."

B

"He's quickly becoming my favorite player in college football."

C

"If you're a turd, it's going to come back to you."

D

"He acted like a punk."

E

"He is loud and aggressive, and that's what makes him Johnny Football, so we love it."

F

"You have no idea how many fans that kid has in NFL locker rooms. We love watching that guy play."
