Pouncey a tough act to follow for identical twin

Going from college to the NFL isn't the only adjustment center Maurkice Pouncey has made since the Steelers took him 18th overall in the 2010 NFL draft.

Since Pouncey, who started Sunday night in Denver, joined the Steelers, he has been away from his identical twin brother, Mike, for the first time in their lives.

The were teammates at Lakeland (Fla.) High School and the University of Florida before Maurkice left a year early for the NFL while Mike opted to stay in Gainesville for his senior season.

Can't help but wonder if Mike stayed in school hoping he might be drafted by the same team his brother was on.

Pouncey could be scary good. I can't wait to see him all season...and the kid is only 20 years old! Hopefully he is around for a very long time.

That would totally rock!

We will prolly never have a shot at him. With us going to the SuperBowl , we will choose so far down the line that there will not even be a chance to snag em. Prolly end up on the Browneyes,or the ravens. They would have the first shots. Specially after the league sees how stalwart his brother is .
