Pat White, the all-time rushing quarterback in NCAA history out of West Virginia University connected with Mississippi's Mike Wallace for a 39 yard TD pass to lead the South to a 35-18 win over the North in the 2009 Senior Bowl and winning the MVP award, a showcase game for many of college football's top prospects.
 
White, who many NFL draft experts believe will not play quarterback in the NFL, showed a lot of good qualities as a passer in the Senior Bowl game.  No one argues that White is the best overall athlete out of all the quarterback's in this upcoming draft, if not the whole class of 2009.
 
With many NFL teams implementing versions of the spread offense that is run in college and high school, using a dual-threat quarterback who can not only throw, but also run with the ball, White is getting a close look by many NFL teams.
