Re: Vote for top 9 college fb players of all time.
 

Naj, you screwed up this thread pretty bad with a crappy poll, but your initial desire to prompt discussion about who the top 9 will turn out to be is good.

I have Red Grange coming in #1, Herschel/Bo/Barry/Detmer will all certainly show up on the list as well. I'm not sure who the other four will be to round it out though.

i never understood these questions. it seems like you are asking who is the best nfl player who coincidently went to college.

agreed 100%..... that's what these best college player polls i see are. well, i guess charlie ward and a few others... and this is just vague memory, but didn't bo jackson have alot of injury trouble in and around huge games. sure grabbed huge yards in bigger games.... but again, it's like bo later became a true icon.

Bo had the 2nd best rushing season ever in the SEC (after Herschel).


Also, why include Detmer and not Colt (who just passed him in TDs in many fewer games)?

yeah, but my point was big games vs. non-big games. remembering this vaguely.. and we are talking the top 9 players ever... hershell i'd say for sure... and then i guess another question is whether to take mostly QB and RB's ala the heisman (although really they affect football more than any other position, especially QB)
