Last 20 years.

1. Barry Sanders
2. Ricky Williams
3. Reggie Bush


In 1988, in what has been called the greatest season in college football history, Barry Sanders led the nation by averaging 7.6 yards per carry and over 200 yards per game, including rushing for over 300 yards in four games. He set college football season records with 2,628 yards rushing, 3,249 total yards, 234 points, 39 touchdowns, of which 37 were rushing (also a record), 5 consecutive 200 yard games, scored at least 2 touchdowns in 11 consecutive games, and 9 times he scored at least 3 touchdowns. Sanders also ran for 222 yards and scored 5 touchdowns in his three quarters of action in the Holiday Bowl - a game that was not included with his season statistics. Sanders won the Heisman Trophy as the season's most outstanding player.

Put the pipe down Fish, Tim Dwight!!!


Dwight (aka "White Lightning") finished his college career with Big Ten records for punt return yardage and punts returned for touchdowns.

Again, if had played for Ohio State in 1996 and 1997, who knows how many punt returns he would have had(more oppurtunities and better players around him). He may have averaged over 1.5 return TD's a game........he was that awesome.

Watching his highlights I posted earlier in this thread bring back great memories.

Sad that no one has mentioned Tommie Frazier.

Frazier was the best CFB player of the 1990's

Your right, the 90's and beyond!

In fact, he may get the nod over Tebow in my book(not Dwight though, lol).


In 1999 Frazier was selected by Sports Illustrated as a back-up quarterback in their "NCAA Football All-Century Team". The starting quarterback was Sammy Baugh and the other back-ups were John Lujack, Roger Staubach and Doug Flutie.

He was one of the best for sure and Nebraska had the greatest team ever back in the mid 90's. You will NOT see a team like that for a long long time if ever in my life time:103631605
