I was born in 92 so I cannot recall some of the greats from back in the day. Reggie Bush was amazing DW4 is up there will him Vince Young was spectacular Rickie Williams was a monster CJ Spiller was so explosive Sammy was great Calvin Johnson got the better of us Chris Wienke was very good Willis McGehee and Ken Dorsey Carson Palmer
Who are your guys greats? Who am I missing from my time

Jeff Davis Michael Dean Perry Anthony Simmons Jeff Bryant Terry Kinard CJ Spiller Sammy Watkins Bo Jackson Hugh Green Ross Browner Herschel Walker Ronnie Lott Leroy Selmon Deion Sanders Barry Sanders Eddie George Charles Woodson Tim Brown Tim Tebow Carl Banks LT Derrick Henry Andre Rison Charles White Reggie Bush Junior Seau And I hate admitting it, George Rogers and Sterling Sharpe. No Tiger fan detests the Chickens more than me but those two make my list from pure football ability.

Tebow was a great!! I really wish I could have watched the older ones. I barely remember Ron Dayne at Wisc but that's about as far back as I can go.

Dayne was a power back. Jackson, Walker, George, and Rogers had power and if they got to the corner, DB's could not catch them.

Kenny Easly was as good as Ronnie Lott in college, and drafted higher. The 2 best Safetys ever played at the same time in the same town.
Dupree was the best college RB I ever saw. Bo was a great athlete but not the dominant player that Dupree was.
Best QB was probably Marino.
Best OT was Orlando Pace.
Best C was Dwight Stevenson.
Best WR Was Calvin Johnson.
Best DE was Lawrence Taylor

Both were amazing in college! Reggie Bush is one of the greatest CFB players to ever play IMO. Spiller was great too

He was my man at Tampa back in the day. He was great in the NFL I wish I could have watched and remembered him in college.

Adrian Peterson was a monster as well. He definitely had the power and speed combo.
