Top 10 College Football Hits Of All Time
The era of enormous hits in college and professional football has come to an abrupt end with all the new rules implemented to protect players. It’s a necessary safety measure with how big and fast these guys are getting. It just sucks we don’t get to see many plays like these anymore:
10. Stanford Samuels – Florida State, 2003
Why it made the list: A huge hit like this in a rivalry game is a momentum changer. Perfect stick.
9. Dwayne Slay – Texas Tech, 2005
Why it made the list: Slay’s reaction while watching his hit on the jumbotron is priceless. And the guy’s name is Slay.
8. Kevin Ellison – USC, 2006
Why it made the list: It’s a huge hit, and DeSean Jackson was on the business end of it. Humble pie.
7. Quinton Moore – Oklahoma State, 2005
Why it made the list: Lights out + it looked like he literally took his head off.
6. Nehemiah Warrick – Michigan State, 2007
Why it made the list: Lays the hit, keeps his feet, runs out of frame. Great follow through.

11 years ago at 12:22 pmhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRbYsngg5FU – you may redo the list now…
11 years ago at 12:23 pmnah
11 years ago at 12:25 pmYes. You don’t know hits, Dorn. Weak.
11 years ago at 12:32 pmWas just copying the URL for this video. Expecting the new release of another top 10 with this included. Fuck you and the BIG 12 Dorn.
11 years ago at 12:55 pmI saw that hit in person. Shit was nuts
11 years ago at 12:55 pmI was at that game. The entire stadium went quiet because people thought he was dead.
11 years ago at 1:05 pmIt isn’t a great video, but he literally knocked Junior Rosegreen unconscious. Junior didn’t move for like 2 minutes. I was at that game, in the UGA student section, and I’ve never seen a crowd react like it did, just going silent. That play also changed the feel of the game, which Auburn would win.
11 years ago at 3:41 pmgetting my years confused. This game was in Auburn. Taking laps.
11 years ago at 3:43 pmreasons this should be here.
11 years ago at 12:47 am1. Everyone thought he was dead
2. guy saw the hit coming and braced for it and still got the shit knocked out of him
3. Deep Souths Oldest Rivalry
4. after the season ended they used this hit to help make a helmet-to-helmet penalty
I wouldn’t put any helmet-to-helmet hits in the top 10. Just not right for the game.
11 years ago at 12:25 pmYour sister trolling your account? Grow some balls, it’s a top 10 list of big hits not a list of top 10 clean tackles. If you’re looking for that, I’m sure you can find some arena football highlights out there.
11 years ago at 1:02 pm…You can deliver a good hit without giving someone brain damage. Why should someone have their career ended just because you want to see people get knocked out?
11 years ago at 2:21 pmSo much brain damage. Gotta love it though
11 years ago at 12:25 pmIf not Top 10, this hit is definitely a Top 15:

Too bad football is a pussy’s sport nowadays and all these hits are illegal.
11 years ago at 12:27 pmThey flagged him for that hit too. Stole that clean hit away from him
11 years ago at 3:26 pmToo bad it was in the middle of an annihilation
11 years ago at 12:34 amI almost like his casual walk off more than the hit itself.
11 years ago at 12:49 amDorn shouldn’t have shown sympathy to SFPL by letting him use his name as the writer.
11 years ago at 12:29 pmI watched that Clowney hit about 7 times because 1. Fuck michigan and 2. It was just stupid
11 years ago at 12:29 pmfirst real pass in a national championship game……. and you dont include this in the list?

11 years ago at 12:32 pmyou gotta put Major Wright’s hit in there.
11 years ago at 2:18 pm1. his name
2. national damn championship game
3. he gets hit and then the entire stands over him and taunts what’s left of his corpse
4. SEC
There’s only one SEC hit, and only because it was just ridiculous. I’m disappointed, Dorn. You worthless piece of Big-12 shit!
