Roger Staubach – 1963
First of all, we want you to know that his records do not exactly translate well. Even so, he pretty much redefined the position of QB. He only earned seven touchdowns and 12 passes out of 192 in his Heisman year. Fair enough, all the other players on the list would be able to outdo that. Also known as Roger the Dodger, Staubach was great at scrambling and paved the way for future pocket scrambles. He took the team to the National Championship game, but they lost in the end. That does not make him less iconic.

Marcus Allen – 1981
Up next, we have Marcus Allen. The team gave him the ball a total of 477 times in 1981. That was also his Heisman year. With so many touches, we can see why he brought home the award. He still has the record for rushing over 200-yard games with eight of them. On the other hand, his 212.9 rushing yards are now known as the second-highest in history. USC might have lost to Washington and Arizona before the Fiesta Bowl, but there is no way that you can deny that he is an amazing player.
