Terry Allen...

...what year did he tear his knee up in college? I remember when he did it at Minnesota but I was too young at the time to remember his college days.

I want to say 1989 ...

... seems he got carted off the field in the 45-0 win over SCAR, but I'm not sure I'm remembering that correctly, so I may be wrong.

"Allen's junior year was a constant battle against injury. He geared up for one last stand against South Carolina, and he responded with 89 yards in the first half, leading Clemson to a convincing lead. But, on his final carry of the first half, he was struck square in the knee, the area that had been giving him trouble. He never carried the ball again for the Tigers."

And no, I don't believe he got a day named after him, a street, a statue built that overlooks the ocean, or any sort of round the week national coverage.

I remember thinking something was up because he fumbled the ball on the play. TA21 never fumbled. Turns out, there was a reason why. He is still one of my favorite Tigers ever.
