Too many in that upper tier. John Hannah and Derrick Thomas are considered all timers. Probably one of them
Thomas was essentially a defensive end, and the coaches asked him to cover Chris Carter in the 4th quarter against Ohio State. Man coverage against one of the best receivers of all time. That’s the kind of athlete DT was

ugga bugga fans with the jr stuff ... lulz. You skeered.
But no ... it's George Rogers. He was dominant in every game he played for four years.

Hannah was AA at Bama, was considered one of the best all time.
He was consents AllPro in NFL.
And thought by many as all time best O lineman ever.
I watched him play at Bama and don’t remember him getting beat.
But that was a long time ago.

Johnny Manziel.
Personal favorites were Dat Nguyen, Von Miller, and Ryan Swope, though.

Gonna say George Rogers for USC (I'm old enough to remember watching him).
But a guy that runs a close second to me is Alshon Jeffery. Sidney Rice really had the same kind of stats (and Sterling Sharpe/Rober Brooks back in the day), but there was something different about Alshon.
I think he did more than any other player to start that good streak of 10 win seasons Spurrier had. More than Shaw, Clowney, or Lattimore.
Julio Jones had big stats and has had a great NFL career. But in college Jeffery somehow could not be covered. Sure it was easy enough to find a guy who could run with him, but in the end if the qb could get the ball anywhere near him in a decent position he was coming down with the ball.
I think he is the only offensive player we have had in recent memory that could not be shut down by Alabama or another elite school. Lattimore was like that too, to some extent, but I really don't think even Alabama had a corner who could have shut Jeffery down. Rice was similar in a lot of ways, but lacked the same kind of physicality.
