BamaGrad03 0 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Alright here's another one. You got 11 guys to pick from all time. And you are the defensive coordinator...who do you go with?

AUJarhead 70 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 DE - Reggie White - Pitt 243395[/snapback] I think he went to UT, didn't he? I'm not sure I'd put Pat Tillman on that list, either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nay4AU 2 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 DE - Reggie White - Pitt 243395[/snapback] I think he went to UT, didn't he? I'm not sure I'd put Pat Tillman on that list, either 243397[/snapback] Could be Hugh Green DE Pitt. He was the runner up to George Rogers for the Heisman in 1980.

BamaGrad03 0 Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 Sorry...total typo...got it right on my other list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80Tiger 899 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 This list looks only covers 20 years or so. When you look at linebackers you have to fo back further to include Dick Butkus, Tommy Nobis and Hacksaw Reynolds who were great collegians as well as pros, defensive lineman like Bubba Smith, Merlin Olson and Randy White to name a few. Many others that I can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bammanmr 0 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I'd replace Tillman with The Boz. His pro career was s***, but he played MLB in college like no other. Lott was a bad-a**, but I'd put kenny easley from UCLA at FS. In college he lit people up at a 2:1 rate compared to lott. Suggs??? No way. Auburn and bammer have had several DEs that were better than that guy. Aundray Bruce was phenominal to watch in college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUesquire 1 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Yea, I believe Mr. Peppers would have to make someone's list. As far as safety's go, I'd also consider Steve Atwater when it comes to pure de-cleating action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StatTiger 3,188 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Dwight Freeman (DE) from Syracuse was dominating at the college level and his pro career has been very good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auskull 239 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Don't forget Buddy McClinton, Larry Willingham and Tommy Wilcox. These were very good College DBs. Willingham was also all pro with the Cardinals. Dick Butkus was a monster during his days at ILL. Don't know how to limit to so few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthLink02 8 Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 I would put Pollack on the list. Not many 3-time All-Americans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeny and Peppers were mammoths in College from the DE spot. Not to take anything away from Pollack, but they had the size and speed to be in the backfield every play, they just didn't have the supporting cast that Pollack had to keep the heat off. Butkus would be my starter at MLB, with Jason Miska backing him up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB33 1 Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I hesitate to assess guys who played before I was born. That said, the All-Time College Football Defense, Post-1980, is . . . (suuuurvey SAYS): DE - Hugh Green, Pitt DT - Tracy Rocker, Auburn DT - Reggie White, Tennessee DE - Dwight Freeney, Syracuse LB - Lawrence Taylor, UNC LB - Chris Spielman, Ohio St LB - Brian Bosworth, Oklahoma CB - Charles Woodson, Michigan CB- Deion Sanders, Florida State S - Roy Williams, Oklahoma S - Kenny Easley, UCLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
