DON'T MISS OUT ON THE GREATEST FOOTBALL PLAYERS OF ALL TIME AND HESIMAN WINNER!!!!!!!!!!! Herschel Walker took the Gerogia program on his back and pushed it to the head of the college football pack with a three season record of 33-3 as Georgia won a national title, played in another national title game and won three straight SEC titles. Walker was more than just a running back, he was Superman. It's hard to possibly describe just what a physical presence Walker was with an NFL body at only 18 years old. According to former Dallas Cowboy player personnel Gil Brandt, "Walker and Earl Campbell were the only two players who could've gone directly into the NFL from high school." After rushing for 6,317 yards and 86 touchdowns in high-school, Walker made an instant impact in his first collegiate game rushing for 84 yards and two scores in a 16-15 win over Tennessee in Knoxville. Carrying the offense, Walker led the Bulldogs to a magical season and the national championship beating Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl gaining 150 of the team's 173 yards and scoring two touchdowns in the 17-10 victory. To add even more to the legend of his freshman year, Walker played in the Sugar Bowl with a badly separated shoulder. Walker didn't slow down running for over 100 yards in 28 of his final 32 regular season games. In the four games he was held under 100 yards, one was in a blowout against TCU in 1980 when he carried the ball only nine times, one was a 44-yard day in a 28-21 win over Ole Miss in 1980. One was a 77-yard performance against Auburn in a 31-21 win in 1980 and the last was 20-yard game against Clemson in 1982 trying to play with a broken thumb. That's it. Every other game Walker topped the century mark. The rushing record: College football fans can look back and enjoy Ricky Williams and Ron Dayne chase and capture of the all-time NCAA rushing record, but had Walker stayed for his senior season the Great Dayne and Mr. Dreadlocks would've been running for second place. Dayne holds the record with 6,397 yards for his career. Walker ran for 5,259 in his three years averaging 1,753 yards per season and had Walker had an average year, for him, in his senior season, he would've set the bar at over 7,000 yards. Walker won the Heisman Trophy in 1982 with 1,752 yards and 17 touchdowns, but his best season was 1981 running for 1,891 yards and 20 scores running for over 100 yards in every game and over 200 yards two of them. If Marcus Allen hadn't run for over 2,000 yards, Walker would've won the Heisman as a sophomore. By the time Walker left Georgia, he held 11 NCAA records, 16 SEC records and 41 Georgia records. Most impressive were his 5,749 all-purpose yards and his four, 200-yard rushing games as a freshman. The team: On it's way to the three SEC titles, Georgia only lost one regular season game in Walker's career losing to eventual national champion Clemson 13-3. The two other losses were just as meaningful. Pittsburgh needed a 33-yard touchdown pass from Dan Marino to John Brown with :35 to play to win the 1982 Sugar Bowl 24-20 while Penn State upset the Bulldogs 27-23 in the 1983 Sugar Bowl to win the national title. To put into perspective just how good Georgia was, it took two national champions and a perfect throw from the NFL's greatest passer to prevent Georgia from going unbeaten three straight seasons with Walker. While Walker was certainly the star and marquee player on those Georgia teams, the Bulldogs weren't bad when he left going 10-1-1 in 1983 ruining Texas' national title hopes by winning the 1984 Cotton Bowl. The one loss was a 13-7 squeaker to Auburn while the other blemish was a 16-16 tie with Clemson. It's not going out on a limb to suggest Georgia would've won those two games with Walker and would've won their ... read more
