The SEC has produced seven Heisman-winning running backs. The Heisman trophy was won by Frank Sinkwich, Billy Cannon, Herschel Walker, George Rogers, Bo Jackson, Mark Ingram, and Derrick Henry.
The position sees waves of skill in a run-heavy conference. Numerous former running backs from the SEC have recently succeeded at the next level.
