I saw them doing something similar on PFT and thought this would be a good idea to pass time in the dead zone. If you could compile a team of all time college greats in their prime at each position for Florida and FSU who would they be and who would win in a head to head game?
All time greats on the college level or the NFL level?
Quote:College.
I'm anticipating Tim Tebow getting more than his share of votes.
I'll give FSU a try.

No debate. I was contrasting Tim Tebow the college player compared to Tim Tebow the NFL player.
A few players I'm very familiar from their NFL days jump out as probably warranting consideration for the respective College all time squads based on their contributions in College Football:
Florida:
T Jim Yarbrough
FB James Jones
Florida St.
TE Pat Carter
I'd be interested to see y'all put a list together mixing uf and FSU.

Would be interesting if you sprinkled in Miami too... It is actually kind of hard:
QB - Tim Tebow/Jameis Winston/Jim Kelly or Vinny Testaverde or Bernie Kosar
RB - Emmitt Smith/Warrick Dunn/Willis McGahee or Clinton Portis or Edgerrin James or Frank Gore
WR - Michael Irvin/Percy Harvin/Peter Warrick

Without looking into it yet I would be willing to bet Miami's team would be the best.

You could argue Terrell Buckley over Haden.
Leaving Peter Warrick off is absolutely insane.
Yea Warrick probably over Alvarez. Had Alvarez been in a pass happy Spurrier type offense he'd a lit the world on fire though. Haden > Buckley
