If this is the case, I might argue Ed Reed should be the guy from Louisiana

Cam Newton was also a better professional football player than Herschel Walker.
He also had more rushing TD

You know, that's actually a good point.
If the criteria is college only, where you went (and the competition you played against) would certainly be a contributing factor.
Not to say that those weren't spectacular players, but I guess we're not considering the NFL at all here.

How you figure? They all made it to the NFL and had pretty good careers. Isn't that the point of college?
Jerry Rice - GOAT, HOF
Walter Payton - HOF
Steve McNair - Pro-Bowler

Georgia: Herschel Walker and that isn't even up for debate
Florida: DT or Tim Tebow
Texas: Earl Campbell
Oklahoma: Lee Roy Selmon

Derrick Henry not in the running at all?

Jim Brown is from St. Simons Island, GA. He is up there with Herschel.

TEXAS: Vince Young (Houston)
Who else was in the running: Earl Campbell, Eric Dickerson, Adrian Peterson

Deion Sanders is understandable, but it’s hard to believe he wasn’t at least among the others considered.

Then Cam is not the correct choice for Georgia.

Cam > Herschel
It’s not really controversial. Herschel is a great back but he is the 2nd best in history behind Bo Jackson.
Cam redefined the QB position and you cannot compare anyone to him.
I like the list.

Clearly it should be Senator Walker from Georgia.
As for Texas...I think Vince Young is one of the most overrated players in college football history.
