Our countdown today features one of the best running backs to ever play in the SEC:
Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas
Simply put: McFadden was a stud his entire career at Arkansas from 2005 to 2007. He finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting in both 2006 and 2007. He was, however, named the SEC Offensive Player of the Year for both the 2006 and 2007 seasons. In the 2006 and 2007 seasons, he won two consecutive Doak Walker Awards and took home the Walter Camp Award in 2007. His 4,590 rushing yards are the second-best all-time in SEC history, which is pretty amazing considering how many carries he split with Felix Jones in the Razorback offense. Check out this amazing 80-yard run McFadden made against bitter rival LSU in 2006:
