Maybe John Hannah if you want your troll to have an actual argument

Or if you really wanted to rustled some Auburn fans then say Jameis Winston

This list is completely tainted by their professional careers.

For example, Florida is very incorrect. You could find a lot of players from Florida who were better in college than Neon Deion was. Yes, he was flashy and flamboyant. But, really? You wouldn't know his name otherwise. Did you know he merely averaged 11 yards per punt return? Did you know he only scored 3 returns for TD's in 127 chances in 4 full years of college? Did you know he only had 14 interceptions in 4 full years of playing every game? He produce 1429 yards in he entire college career.

The GOAT.

Had 1200+ receiving yards at the age of 40.
It's crazy to think that he was so old he was occasionally playing with or against players who weren't even born when he first entered the league in 1985.

Louisiana: Peyton Manning


He earned this all those times he beat Florida and with that National Championships he won.

There are no less than 25 names more deserving names than him.

Those are team accomplishments and many on the list never won a National Title. Your argument is retarded and you should feel bad

Rhode Island: Al Del Greco


He's an Auburn guy, but damn. Your best player is a kicker?


Hah....I was born in Rhode Island and grew up in Miami like Del Greco. I knew he grew up in Miami but didn't realize he was born in RI.

Deion's not a bad choice. I don't think he's even the best FSU player from the state though.

I agree, if you had to choose between Sanders and Tebow based solely on college body of work it would be Timmy by a land slide.

maybe in some states, but some have clear-cut, indisputable #1s. GA for example.


Surprised a UGA fan would say Cam is the clear cut one. I would say Herschel has at least somewhat of an argument just not much of one.

Agree. Walter Payton and Brett Favre are the only other two that come remotely close.

Dude, Herschel Walker is by far the choice in GA and it's not even a discussion. Period.

I really like the manning family. All role models. I do not consider them as louisianaians. They are full of mississippi blood thru and thru. Therefore my pick is tommy cassanova for louisiana.

Kentucky: Jim Marshall


Kentucky gave us the Hefty Lefty (Jared Lorenzen) and the Golden Boy (Paul Hornug)

They picked "Wrong Way" Marshall instead? Insult to injury, Marshall played high school and college ball north of the Ohio Ocean.
