Emmitt had a breakout 1300 yard FR season and a 1600 yd season as a JR before going pro.
His SO season was marred by injury where the Gators averaged 6 pts per game in a 4-game stretch without Smith.  Included was a loss to Memphis and another to Vanderbilt.
Emmitt's 5.3 ypc average seems pedestrian, but the other RBs only averaged 3.6.  Emmitt had 988 yds in 9 games (8, really).
The QBs for Florida that season did this horrific nonsense:
sub 50% comp 
sub 100 pass rating
3 TDs, 17 INTs
.
One-man gang, indeed.

Emmitt should have attended Nebraska

QBs were better

Fortunately his pro situation was a total 180

Indeed.
Florida should have punted on 3rd downs w/o Emmitt for those 4 games.

The position name “Rover” is such an apt description for how Mike Brown played football.  He roved sideline to sideline, from goal line to the opponent’s backfield making plays.  Brown ended his career second on the all-time tackle charts, which is no surprise considering that Mike Brown is the greatest open field tackler I have ever seen.  Period.  Brown was a multi-year starter and earned All Big XII and All-America honors in his senior season as he led arguably the greatest defense in school history.
