10 college football players that scared the crap out of us

3. Aaron Donald

Okay, this was an obvious one.

In an asylum full of college football’s most terrifying players, Aaron Donald lurks as a man among boys even now in the National Football League. In his collegiate years spent at Pittsburgh, Donald was an absolute terror to any and every offensive line that dared face him.

And now you’re locked in an abandoned asylum with the man who could tear any offensive line to shreds, making child’s play of any backfield.

In his time with Pitt, Donald racked up 29.5 sacks, 66 tackles for loss, and 181 total tackles playing on the defensive line. That, paired with six forced fumbles, led to him being the No. 13 pick in the 2014 NFL Draft by the Rams, still terrifying opposing defenses to this day at the professional level.

He is, or should be, said to be one of the most intimidating players to line up against in the NFL, as he was at Pitt. His immensely long body allowed him to defend 10 passes at the collegiate level as well, so even if he can’t get to your backfield, he’ll disrupt your play.

Donald’s strength makes him a force to be reckoned with, and at 6’, 285 pounds, he’s basically born to tear up your backfield.
