Former Michigan Wolverine Charles Woodson voted the best defensive player in college football history

Last week, College Football on Fox’s Twitter asked who’s the all-time best defensive player.

Fans jumped on voting for several different players including Oklahoma defensive end LeRoy Selmon, Nebraska Cornhuskers’ own Ndamukong Suh, and Florida State defensive back Deion Sanders.

However, none could compete with the greatest of all-time, Michigan’s Charles Woodson.

Woodson was the Heisman Trophy winner back in 1997 when Michigan won their last National Championship.

He had 16 interceptions in three seasons with the Wolverines, seven of which came in that historic 1997 season.

Along with his defensive duties, Woodson was also a force as a kick and punt returner and as a wide receiver.
