Title: Which way, Bo?
Post by: Kaos on January 14, 2020, 11:02:22 AM: Top Eleven players in CFB history recognized at the game last night. One of the eleven was Bo (and I think the only living rep who didn't show up for the ceremony). None were from Bama.

I correctly predicted eight. Expected Charles Woodson, Tommie Frazier and Hugh Greene.

I guessed Brown, Staubach Grange, Herschel, Bo, Griffin, Thorpe and Barry Sanders.

I didn't see Sayers, Campbell or Butkus coming.

That said, other than Bo and Herschel who'd have to be on any list I made, I could draft a completely different eleven than that and be just as valid.

Spurrier (or Tebow or Cam or even Marino)
Hugh Greene
Frazier
Billy Sims
Woodson
Tim Brown
Warren Sapp (or Cocaine Irvin)
Deion Sanders
Dorsett

definites for me:

Bo
Herschel
Campbell (I think he's right there with the other modern 4-5 at the RB position)
Thorpe
Griffin
Barry
Staubach (wrote the book on how the position was played for most of the last 50 years)
Frazier (before Burrow/LSU in 2019, possibly the greatest season by a QB/TEAM in 1995, still may be)
Brown (The Godfather)

probables:

Tebow (totality of resume)
Woodson (one of the most versatile players ever)
Manning (same as Tebow)
Sayers
Grange

Have to add Archie Griffin to that for 5.

If only by virtue of 2 heismans - he will almost certainly be on every list.
