O.J. Simpson – 1968
Well, did you think we could finish this list without mentioning the Juice? Of course, the murder charges made us see him in a new light, but his athletic prowess is unmatched. O.J. Simpson was the first college player to earn this much fame. It was hard to come up with a defensive plan for him. For two back-to-back years, he had the highest rushing yards record. In 1968, he dominated the field and made it look easy. He led in touchdowns with 23 that year. His margin of victory is the highest in Heisman history.
