The NCAA career rushing record was broken twice in the 1990s. The "Fun 'n' Gun" took off Florida. ESPN's "College GameDay" had the brilliant idea of taking their pregame show on campus.College football’s popularity took off as a result in a decade that started with a split national championship between Colorado and Georgia Tech and ended with the third year of the Bowl Championship Series. Here is our first team, which includes All-America selections from 1990-99. This team features a ridiculous running back class. The 1990s team brings a loaded offense around tackle Orlando Pace – the dominant Ohio State tackle who brought the "pancake" stat into college football. The defense features Michigan defensive back Charles Woodson – who led the Wolverines to a split national championship with Nebraska in 1997. Yes, the Huskers are well-represented on this team.SN140 ALL AMERICA TEAMS: 2020s | 2010s | 2000s | 1980s | 1970s | 1960sSN 140 1990s All-America Team (1990-99) OffenseQB: Tommie Frazier, Nebraska RB: Ricky Williams, Texas RB: Ron Dayne, Wisconsin WR: Desmond Howard, MichiganWR: Randy Moss, MarshallTE: Marco Battaglia, Rutgers T: Orlando Pace, Ohio StateG: Aaron Taylor, Notre Dame C: Aaron Taylor, Nebraska G: Will Shields, Nebraska T: Jonathan Ogden, UCLA AP: Raghib Ismail, Notre Dame K: Sebastian Janikowski, Florida State Star powerWilliams and Dayne took turns breaking the all-time rushing record during their careers. Dayne rushed for 6,397 yards, and Williams was close behind with 6,279 yards. The next two debated running backs – San Diego State's Marshall Faulk and Ohio State's Eddie George – would be first-team selections in most decades. Randy Moss played one season in the FBS with Marshall – and he had 90 catches for 1,647 receiving yards and 25 TDs. Howard had 23 total TDs in 1991 with Michigan – including the iconic "Heisman pose" on a 93-yard punt return against Ohio State on Nov. 23, 1991. He followed Ismail, who averaged 22 yards per catch for his career and had five kickoff returns for TDs for the Irish. Best position groupOffensive line. Pace – a two-time Unanimous All-American – finished fourth in the Heisman voting in 1996. Ogden enjoyed a dominant career, and Shields also was a unanimous pick. Nebraska center and guard Aaron Taylor won three national championships, and Notre Dame guard Aaron Taylor won the Lombardi Award in 1993. Alabama tackle Chris Samuels just missed the cut. That's how awesome this offensive line is. Toughest debateTommie Frazier vs. Danny Wuerffel. Imagine that Peyton Manning was eliminated from this debate first. Wuerffel passed for 10,875 yards and 114 TDs with the Gators. Frazier passed for 3,521 yards and rushed for 1,955 yards in Nebraska's option offense. They met in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 2, 1996 – a game the Huskers won 62-24. Perhaps Frazier's 75-yard TD run is the best tiebreaker. Defense DL: Steve Emtman, Washington DL: Warren Sapp, MiamiDL: Rob Waldrop, ArizonaDL: Chris Zorich, Notre Dame LB: Ray Lewis, Miami LB: Marvin Jones, Florida State LB: LaVar Arrington, Penn State CB: Charles Woodson, Michigan CB: Champ Bailey, Georgia S: Lawyer Milloy, WashingtonS: Ken Swilling, Georgia Tech P: Todd Sauerbrun, West Virginia Star powerImagine this team with social media. Woodson made a series of highlight-reel plays at Michigan – ranging from one-handed interceptions against Michigan State to his sequel to the Desmond Howard punt return against Ohio State. Lewis and Sapp were at Miami together. Lewis was somehow not a Unanimous All-America selection, but that did not disqualify him from the list. The "LaVar Leap" was Arrington's masterpiece with Penn State. They were great players with larger-than-life personalities in the 1990s. Best position groupSecondary. Woodson and Bailey could play both ways in any era, and both went on to Pro Football Hall of Fame careers at the next level. Milloy and Swilling were prototype elite safeties, and this position group is so loaded Thorpe Award winners such as Arizona’s Darryll Lewis, Florida State’s Terrell Buckley, Alabama’s Antonio Langham and Ohio State’s Antoine Winfield did not make the list. Toughest debateMarvin Jones vs. Derrick Brooks vs. Pat Fitzgerald. That third linebacker spot was tricky. Jones and Brooks are pretty interchangeable at Florida State, but our panel gave the slight edge to Jones. He swept the Lombardi Award and Butkus Award in 1992 and finished fourth in the Heisman Trophy voting. Fitzgerald was a two-time Bednarik Award and Butkus Award winner with the Wildcats – where he would later be the head coach from 2006-22. Fun fact Janikowski was so good in college he left after his junior year and was a first-round pick by the Oakland Raiders in the 2000 NFL Draft. Janikowski led the NCAA in field goals made in 1998 (27) and 1999 (23) – a season in which he helped the Seminoles complete a perfect 12-0 national championship run under Bobby Bowden. The legendary Florida State coach would later say, "Have you ever thought about how many national championships we might have won if we had Janikowski every year of my career?"
