Can't include John David Crow or George Rogers in this list because their Heisman years predate their respective schools' membership into the SEC.

As awesome as Cam was that one year, I don't see how anyone could rank him above Tebow.

Kinda hard to compare QBs and RBs so I will separate them. Based on season stats.
QBs
Manziel
Cam
Tebow
Wuerful
Old Guys
RBs
Henry
Bo
Walker
Ingram
*Rogers not SEC at the time

I would probably go with...
First Tier
Herschel Walker 1982
Bo Jackson 1985
Cam Newton 2010
Tim Tebow 2007
Second Tier
Johnny Manziel 2012
Derrick Henry 2015
Mark Ingram 2009
Danny Wuerffel 1996
George Rogers 1980
Third Tier, or Lack of visibility to me personally
Pat Sullivan 1971,
Steve Spurrier 1966
Frank Sinkwich, 1942
Billy Cannon 1959
John David Crow 1957
Honestly, I think you could just about flip a coin among any in the first tier but I really think Herschel was the greatest back the SEC has ever had. Bo had tremendous athletic ability but if they were both available in the same draft I would take Herschel. But hey, that's just me. There are no duds on this list.

I'll take Bo as 1. I was just a little Bama fan when he was playing, but he amazed me. He may be my favorite player of all time, college or pro

Derrick Henry does not get enough love. He may not be the best player in conference history to win the Heisman, but he did rush for more yards and more TDs in a single season than any other player in SEC history. And he played his best when the spotlight was at its brightest.
