Ranking the Top 10 Sophomores Heading into the 2020 College Football Season

It's easy to find elite talent from the 2019 crop of college football talent, but it's much tougher to rank them.

Take into the consideration the guys who didn't make this list, such as Arizona State quarterback Jayden Daniels and UCF signal-caller Dillon Gabriel. They are exciting players who'd start for most teams.

Standout defenders such as Notre Dame's Kyle Hamilton, Tennessee's Henry To'oto'o, Purdue's George Karlaftis, USC's Drake Jackson, Alabama's DJ Dale and Christian Harris, Oregon State's Omar Speights, Stanford cornerback Kyu Blu Kelly and Texas A&M's Demani Richardson fell just short.

So did Nebraska all-purpose playmaker Wan'Dale Robinson, Texas A&M tight end Jalen Wydermyer, star SEC offensive linemen Evan Neal (Alabama) and Nick Broeker (Ole Miss) and Tennessee running back Eric Gray.
