10 scariest players in the SEC

In the spirit of Halloween I’ve decided to list some of the SEC’s scariest players. I’m not ranking them because I am a big chicken and wouldn’t want any of these monsters coming after me at any point ever.

Shane Ray – Missouri
45 tackles, 10 sacks. 6’3″ 245lb. The guy is sa beast. Missouri has plenty of problems, but Ray is not one of them. The dude straight up balls, and if you are in the backfield, you no doubt know exactly where he is at all times.

Robert Nkemdiche – Ole Miss
His name even strikes fear in people’s hearts. Any time your name is hard to pronounce it adds a level of intrigue to your persona. This is one scary lookin’ dude. Not only are his name and stature intimidating, he was recently added to the Chuck Bednarik Award Watch List, which is awarded to the best defensive player in the SEC. So, yeah.

AJ Johnson – Tennessee
AJ Johnson always seems like he is on a mission to punish someone. Plus those dreads he has add a little scary to him as well as he is flying around the field looking for his next victim.

Amari Cooper – Alabama
Amari might be the scariest offensive player in the country right now. Not necessarily from a physical prowess standpoint, but from a “I can pretty much do whatever I want” standpoint. He is putting up stupid numbers and does not look to be slowing down at any point soon. Defenses in the SEC are most definitely scared of Cooper.

Todd Gurley – Georgia
The bad boy of the NCAA. Sure he’s missed a bunch of games for taking money for autographs, but that is all part of the package. He is undoubtedly stewing about the fact he is not on the field and will return with a vengeance once he is cleared to play again.

Dan Skipper – Arkansas
I’m sorry, this dude is almost seven feet tall. That is a huge guy. Anytime you near the seven foot mark, you officially become scary, even if you are a teddy bear on the inside (I am not sure if Skipper is a teddy bear or not, but like I said, it doesn’t matter). Six feet, ten inches. Plays on the offensive line. He will push you around and steal your candy.

Jeremy Liggins – Ole Miss

Any time you have a 6’3″ 300 pound guy lined up as QB in the shotgun, that is scary. Sure the guy is really only in every now and again, but tell me you’d like to get in front of that downhill train and I’ll call you a liar. Not to mention he can actually throw the ball too.

Dante Fowler Jr. – Florida
Fowler has the unfortunate fate of being stuck on a bad Florida team. If his offense could do anything at all to win some games, he would be getting more love. But his freakish athleticism gets him a mention on this list. I would not want to see that dude coming off the edge.

Danielle Hunter – LSU
This picture should be everything you need.

Derrick Henry – Alabama
Linebacker’s body, running back’s speed. He will run you over in a heartbeat, so unless you like collisions, get out of his way. Henry is averaging over 5 yards per carry, which is scary on it’s own.
