Outside of supporting your favorite team, pure entertainment is one of the biggest reasons to watch college football.

And sometimes, it’s all about an individual.

Not every player highlighted is considered “elite” nationally. However, they all are flat-out entertaining.

Considering the Football Bowl Subdivision has 131 teams, there are many, many more exciting players to watch. These talents, though, top a personal list of must-watch players.

 

Deuce Vaughn, RB, Kansas State

To say Deuce Vaughn is a hidden gem would be disrespectful, given he landed first-team AP All-American recognition last year. However, he doesn’t always land the attention of other top-tier backs because Kansas State isn’t as prestigious as, say, Ohio State or Texas.

But he’s certainly earned the spotlight.

Vaughn registered 1,221 all-purpose yards and nine touchdowns in 2020. He exploded for 1,872 yards—with 49 receptions, a top-five mark at his position—and 22 scores last season.

Listed at 5’6″ and 176 pounds, Vaughn will always be connected to his stature. His production tells a more important story, though.
