Leave it to UGA fans to not get it. Good grief.
I like Derrick Thomas a lot, and he was a complete stud. I am a much bigger fan of him than I am of Bo Jackson, but there is no contest as to who is the better player of all time. As UGA fans we understand how important defense is because Alabama wins championships with it, while it has cost us from competing the way we should over the last 10 years. I think Thomas is probably the best defensive player, but Reggie White was also great. However, when you compare the two of them to Bo and the impact he had on the game it isn't as close as it should be because offensive played can make a bigger impact. I didn't include Herschel, because I understand that comes off as bias, even if he was arguably the greatest college player ever.

Bo Jackson is one of the greatest athletes to ever grace the SEC, but he is hardly the greatest player in SEC history when you actually take into account achievements on the football field.
