Hines Ward just for his work ethic.
Shaun Alexander, still burns to think of that game he ran all over us at the Swamp. Also, he seemed like a great kid.
Mark Ingram, I sure wish he had come to UF.

Fav. rival fan - Jay Cutler's Dad....invoked the pre-chompulation curse.

Saw a documnetary the other day on Condredge Holloway. Played back in the 1970's for UT. Some may remember him. He put up with a lot of crap from the necks up there, but it made an impact on me. He's asst. athletic director now. He ended up going to play in the CFL, but he's a quite a guy.

Here's some names for you ....

FSU Lee Corso
Georgia Fran Tarkenton
Tennessee Richmond Flowers

Only slightly tongue-in-cheek ...

Flowers was an incredibly fast receiver and classy guy.
Tarkenton was an early day RGIII
Corso not a huge name in football but a great all around athlete ... lettered in FB, basketball and baseball at FSU.

I will name him George

DrewGator15 · 01-29-2013, 09:07 PM

Georgia- David Pollack
Tenn- Peyton Manning
Fay- Warrick Dunn

Tennessee- Peyton Manning: an all-time great. Never beat us, but still gets nothing but respect from me.
Georgia- Terrence Edwards: Thanks buddy!
FSU- Dunn
scUM- Kosar: Took a beating from us in '83 and still won a title. Came back the next year and broke our hearts in Tampa. He's also taken a beating in life sadly.

How hard would it be to name your favorite Gator player --

No one has mentioned Jay Barker at Bama. He was a very classy kid and if memory serves me correctly, at the time he was the winningest QB at Alabama--something like 35-2-1 during his career before they had to forfeit some games. While not a Gump fan, I had to admire and respect the kid....he was Bama's version of our Danny.

Not to mention he married Sara Evans---kinda outkicked his coverage on that one.

Yes indeed!

swampsupreme · 01-30-2013, 03:22 AM

FSU - anquan boldin
UGA - david pollack
TENN - arian foster

no peyton for me hes a choke artist in the playoffs always has been, hate how people hype him up.

**regurgigator** · 01-30-2013, 03:39 AM

FSU - Warrick Dunn

Bama - Namath, Stabler, and Lee Roy Jordan, but pretty much for what they did in the NFL. I did like Tony Nathan while he was at Bama.

Tenn - Dale Ellis (what a shooter) and Bernard King (what a scorer) Can't think of any football players.

UGA - Herschel (after he left) and Dominique Wilkins

killercroc_UF · 01-30-2013, 06:29 AM

Primetime and Dunn

UFreak · 01-30-2013, 07:11 AM

The main ones for me have. Even covered for the three rivals on the OP.
Back when Auburn was our third biggest rival, a mere 20 years ago, I'd have to say Bo Jackson.

Tebowism0823 · 01-30-2013, 07:45 AM

UGA- David Pollack( Love Muschamp but if he wasn't our coach he wouldn't be my pick)

UT- Eric Berry

FSU- Derrick Brooks

raidsgt · 01-30-2013, 08:21 AM

F$U-Sebastian Janikowski...
Fat drunk kickers rule lol

UGAly-DJ Shockley, I was worried that year till he got hurt, good kid bad luck

UFreak · 01-30-2013, 08:22 AM

UT - Bernard King
UGa - Dominique Wilkins

Distant Gator · 01-30-2013, 08:40 AM

My favorite rival player is also Jay Barker, with Charlie Ward and Warrick Dunn right behind.

IN this century- Marcus Lattimore and Dylan Thompson are my 2 favorite non Gators in the SEC. They are what college football should be about.

Spurffelbow833 · 01-30-2013, 08:54 AM

UGA--Terrell Davis. His career was short, and he's no choir boy, but he was the missing piece of the puzzle that finally put the Broncos over the top. Credit Elway all you want. There would be no Lombardi's in Pat Bowlen's trophy case without TD.

FSU--Warrick Dunn. A class act who made his debut at FSU with the weight of the world on his shoulders and triumphed in every meaningful way a man ever could.

UT--Bill Bates. Herschel Walker was the only player who ever came out on top in a collision with him.

**supagator** · 01-30-2013, 09:09 AM

Florida- percy, tebow, quezzie, terry jackson, teako brown, dwayne thomas.
Georgia- herschel walker, terrell davis
Tenn- peyton manning
South carolina- clowney and lattimore
Vandy- all of em.. always play us tough.
Kentucky- none of em..
