The University of Southern California has been known for producing great running
backs in college football. Players like O.J. Simpson and Charles White were spectacular
and won Heisman Trophies during their careers. One running back who came along behind
them was special too, and his name was Marcus Allen.
The talented athlete eventually made his way onto the field. And once he made his way out there, he never returned to the bench.
An example of Allen’s excellence took place on Oct. 10, 1981, when he achieved his fifth consecutive 200-yard rushing game. Allen went on to win a Heisman Trophy himself.
