You don’t have to be a college football genius to realize who the fast players are in College football, but it doesn’t hurt when your team has what will likely be two of the most explosive players for the upcoming season in Junior De’Anthony Thomas and Freshman Thomas Tyner (who just missed the cut, albeit I’m including him even though he hasn’t set foot on the Autzen turf yet) according to Athlon Sports.
Athlon takes a look at the Top 20 Most Explosive Players and in there are some from the Pac 12 including Cal Running Back Brendan Bigelow at 17, Oregon State Wide Receiver Brandon Cooks at 11, Arizona Running Back Ka’Deem Carey in the Top 10 at 9, USC Wideout Marquise Lee at 4 and Oregon’s own De’Anthony Thomas in the top spot.
"He is the most explosive, most dangerous big-play star in college football today and is the most difficult player in the nation to stop in the open field. – Athlon Sports on DAT"
Thomas and Tyner and the rest of the Ducks take the field in one month on August 31st to take on Nicholls State inside Autzen Stadium.
