Herschel Walker, Georgia | College Football's 10 Most Punishing Running Backs During My Lifetime

I will never forget the "Big Dawg" as long as I live. Herschel could flat play, never seen a RB as good since. Total package runner: power, world class speed, vision, and effort.

Herschel Walker, Georgia College Football's 10 Most Punishing Running Backs During My Lifetime:
"True story.
Back in my freshman year of college, one of the guys who lived on my floor was from Georgia. Well, he was a heck of a good guy and liked to have a few beers on a Friday night.
Back then the drinking age was 18, and we sure couldn't let him drink alone. In any event, after a few hours he would always talk the rest of us into a game he called 'Herschel.'
The way the game was played is one guy stands at one end of a hallway holding a football; his goal is to cross the goal line about 20 yards away. Standing between the ball carrier and the goal line are the other 10 guys, all playing defense.
For the real Herschel, this was about an even match against a real college football team, and let's not forget he was a world-class sprinter as well.
