I was only about 10 when Rich Glover played. I remember him as an awesome player but Suh is arguably the greatest college D-Lineman of all time. Not just at Nebraska, but all college, All time.
Reply ReplySUH had less help on the Dline and yet he dominated. Ask that Missouri QB what he thinks as well as McCoy. If we had had the 2008 or 2010 offense wt Suh's 2009 D = National champs. Timing was off.
Reply ReplyA beast often double & triple teamed, Suh still dominated games and caused OCs to change entire game plans mid-stream.
Reply ReplyGlover was very good, but Suh's success in the NFL is a pretty good indicator of his overall talent level.
Reply ReplyGlover was the best until Suh. More diverse offenses today. Nationally, Suh had a tad more recognition. I love them both and grateful they played for the Big Ref.

Tough choice. Suh was physically stronger but when you compare effectiveness of the player vs state of the game when they played it's harder to say. Also, RG had 2 outstanding seasons vs NS's 1.
ReplyRich was a one many wrecking ball on a National Championship team competing with his own players like Larry Jacobson, etc.
ReplyIt's very close. Each was the dominant defensive lineman of his era. Each wrecked offenses. Glover by far outplayed everyone in the Game of the Century, and it's hard to top that. Glover, barely.
