Bo Jackson Tribute

[StatTiger 3,188]

I feel fortunate to have seen him play at Auburn from 1982-1985. I was not fortunate to have witnessed Pat Sullivan live, so watching Bo Jackson provided an opportunity to witness a collegiate legend. The was no other better running back to grace the football field than Bo Jackson when he was healthy. Bo Jackson combined size, power, quickness, and speed to forge a complete running back. He was a remarkable 3-star athlete, and hope this video tribute does him justice. The mark of a superstar on the football field is a player who makes you hold your breath at the snap. There was always that feeling Bo would erupt into a big play, every time he touched the football.

I’ll never forget tearing down the goalpost after the “Bo Over the Top” game in Legion Field! There must have been 2-300 people with us bringing down the goalpost that night. Pandemonium baby!!!

Bo, Barkley, and the Big Hurt.  Great time to be at Auburn.

ESPN has an excellent show, "You don't know Bo". It's one of those 30 for 30 type things. Anybody that hasn't seen it needs to make an effort.

The part when they were taking about him destroying a batting cage was great. Can you imagine what that scout thought.

Yeah, I remember standing almost underneath it, saw it tilting over as guys were climbing up it, and decided to go celebrate in the middle of the field before the goalposts landed on my head!  A few minutes later a group of guys went past me carrying one of the uprights...
