Player Profile: Emmitt Smith (college)

From the Cowboys*96 Media Guide
(July, 1996)

COLLEGE: An All-America and threetime All-SEC selection at Florida, Smith established 58 school records in three seasons, including a career rushing mark of 3,928 yards.

He surpassed the 1,000-yard rushing mark in his seventh game, earlier than any player in college football history.

He also became the second freshman to finish in the top 10 in the Heisman Trophy ballotting (Herschel Walker was the other) and earned Freshman of the Year honors from UPI and The Sporting News.

In 1989, he set a school single-game rushing mark with 316 yards against New Mexico on his way to a school-record 1,599 yards rushing for the season. In three seasons, he became the fifth leading all-time rusher in SEC history and led the Gators in receiving two of the three seasons.

PRO GAMES/STARTS: (regular season, playoff) - 1990 (16/15), 1991 (16/16/, 2/2), 1992 (16/16, 3/3), 1993 (14/13, 3/3), 1994 (15/15/, 2/2), 1995 (16/16, 3/3). Total - 93/91, 13/13.
