My apologies if Germans. Searched, didn't find it - might not have used the best keywords but oh well.

Linktastic

Alabama - Derrick Thomas
Arkansas - Darren McFadden
Auburn - Bo Jackson
Florida - Tim Tebow
Georgia - Herschel Walker
Kentucky - Babe Parilli
LSU - Billy Cannon
MSU - Dak Prescott
Mizzou - Kellen Winslow
Ole Miss - Eli Manning
USC - George Rogers
Tennessee - Peyton Manning
Texas A&M - Johnny Manziel
Vandy - Billy Spears

Interesting tidbits:
Only two players played defense (Thomas and Cannon), but Cannon played all 3 facets (Off, Def, ST). Thomas is the only dedicated defensive player.
Kellen Winslow is the only other player to not play RB or QB.
Iron man - 1
LB - 1
TE - 1
QB - 7
RB - 4

Players from before 2000 - 9 (Eli, Tebow, Manziel, Dak, DMac all in 2000 or later)

I would lean Bambi for Arkansas over McFadden. As an entire career combined.

I hate how everyone has to apologize for the sin of posting something that's been posted before.

I'm not saying this has been posted before but you shouldn't have to start out a post apologizing for something that may or may not have been posted.

also GERMANS.

A year from now I don't think anyone can argue that you can insert LF for Cannon.

Tebow was everything you wanted from a QB. I enjoyed watching him play although I couldn't stand him.

I'm assuming this list purely based on their college career? If so it's overall very spot on.

Emmitt Smith was better than Tebow as a player overall, but Tebow's college career was much more remarkable than Smith's was.

Never even heard of the UK or Vandy guys I would have guessed;

Vandy: Jay Cutler or Jordan Matthews
Kentucky: Randall Cobb, Tim Couch, or Andre Woodson

McFadden was a beast but no way was he better than Steve "Knock your arse out" Atwater

It's either him or John Hannah. Hannah is probably the best guard of all time.

Yea I don't understand hammering some for a repost unless it's already on the first page.

Not at all

Tyrann Mathieu is the most electric player in the history of SEC football

unfortunately LSU's guidelines on fake weed are more stringent than the rest of the SEC
