in response to RealisticVol:

Jim Brown could run around you or through you. I saw an interview with a hall of fame linebacker ( I can't remember his name at the moment) and he said one game he tackled Brown and Brown warned him not to do it again. Later he hit him again. The third time he went to hit him, he said Jim Brown turned and plowed straight into him and while he was laying there on the ground shook up, Jim Brown looked down and said "I told you not to do it again." The linebacker said he was never hit any harder by anybody.

Realistic,

You right about Jim Brown. A truly great and punishing back.

Except for one game which I saw. 1962, the Browns came to Washington to play the Skins.
Washington won 16-9, and they held Jim Brown to 52 yards. Also. Lou Groza missed an extra point in the game.

Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, Floyd Little.
Wouldn't it be great if the Vols had anything like those former Syracuse guys?
