who would it be? I’m going Vince young 2005. Put him with a freshman Dmac and Felix jones that offense would be dynamic.
Some of yall have a broad definition of rival.

Michael Crabtree, 2008

Either Vince Young or Tommy Nobis. I'd say Earl, but we had a bunch of good running backs during his time. Maybe Jordan Shipley. That guy was a player.

Robert Griffin in 2011 and Manziel in 2012. LSU wins at least 1 more natty in football.

2008 Tim Tebow. Bama wins 08 natty.

Cam Newton with that 2010 Arkansas team.

Cam Newton
Posted on 6/21/26 at 12:51 pm to Lucado
Also going with Cam Newton.

Cam is the obvious choice, but legally I cannot do that.

Not a rival team but RG3 or Andrew Luck on 2011 LSU would have been god level.

Jayden Daniels, 2023.
Daniels replaces Milroe, Bama beats Michigan in the Rose Bowl and UW in the NC and Saban retires a NC.

Nutt would find a way to mess it up

Cam Newton either 2010 or 2011 LSU
Posted on 6/21/26 at 1:54 pm to Hawgnsincebirth55
Penn Wagers or Marc Curels
best players Auburn and Florida ever had.

2025 OKlahoma kicker Tate Sandell

TJ Yeldon in 2012 against LSU. I’d take him and just bench him.

Tebow '08...we were undefeated with JPW. Take Tim off the Gators and give him to us would have pushed us over the hump.

2005 Vince Young
- Georgia went 9-2 in the regular season with losses in the WLOCP and DSOR by a combined 5 points. The offense was already geared for that style of QB because of DJ Shockley. Still have to get by Southern Cal in the Rose Bowl, but I think that happens.
2012 Johnny Manziel
- Georgia went 12-2 with the losses to Alabama in the SECCG and South Carolina. While South Carolina beat the shite out of us, Aaron Murray had the worst game of that season and Manziel at QB completely changes that with his legs. Manziel won @ Alabama that year, so I'd say he does the same in Atlanta. Georgia plus Manziel puts up at least 49 vs. that baby shite soft Notre Dame team in the BCS Championship.
2019 Joe Burrow
- Georgia went 12-2 with the only losses to LSU and South Carolina (OT). LSU almost certainly doesn't make it to Atlanta without Burrow and Georgia wins easily with Burrow vs. South Carolina. That was a deep CFP field without LSU (Clemson, Oklahoma, and Ohio State - a combined 1 loss between all three teams) but Burrow instead of Fromm makes them the favorite in this hypothetical. Georgia had wins over the Coaches Poll Final Rankings #7, #11, #12, and #14. Georgia had the best defense in the nation that year but was absolutely middle of the road on offense. Burrow fixes that.
Foot note: 2010 Cam Newton couldn't even carry that 2010 Georgia team to a national title.

Brock Bowers (Doesn't matter what year)
Locker room leader... Best college TE possibly ever and Impossible to hate (from a fan perspective)
Any year he's on the roster would've been an extra Natty
