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.

    I would just like to say thank you for not having a ridiculously short-term memory when you made this list. I cannot stand it when every greatest all time list covers like a 5-year span.

      Also, even though it’s not college, is there any way you can find some Chuck Cecil hits? Literally every single one of them has been banned. I’ve found one in my entire life

    Guarantee you got the idea for this from the “fencing response” column on bar stool.

    This was the worst idea you have ever had. That, or you were just waiting on every reader to bitch at you for not putting other hits in.
