In a groundbreaking moment that has ignited passionate debate across the college football world, Alabama legend Derrick Henry has been named the Greatest of All Time (GOAT) in college football history, according to a historic fan and expert poll conducted by ESPN.

Henry, who won the Heisman Trophy in 2015, captivated fans with his bruising running style, punishing defenders en route to a record-setting junior season. He rushed for an SEC-record 2,219 yards and 28 touchdowns, leading Alabama to a national championship and rewriting the narrative on what dominance truly looks like in the modern era of college football.
“This is more than just numbers,” said one ESPN analyst. “Derrick Henry embodied relentless power, unmatched endurance, and the ability to take over games in a way few ever have. He was a force of nature.”
While legends like Archie Griffin—still the only two-time Heisman winner—Herschel Walker, and Earl Campbell left indelible marks on the game, Henry’s legacy now stands above them all, according to this poll. His rare blend of size, speed, and durability has redefined the running back position and inspired a new generation of athletes.
Social media erupted with praise and debate following the announcement, as fans across the country relived Henry’s historic runs and game-clinching performances. For Alabama faithful, the honor simply confirms what they’ve long believed: Derrick Henry isn’t just a Crimson Tide legend—he’s the greatest to ever grace the college
