4. Eric Dickerson & Craig James, SMU (1979-82)

“The Pony Express” is perhaps one of the most-famous running back duos of all-time. They represented the last great era of SMU football, a program that has been stunted by the NCAA’s “death penalty.” But in their hey-day, Dickerson and James led the pack for the powerful Mustangs, rushing for a combined 8,193 yards in their four years together. That’s an astounding number. But the contributions from James are even more shocking considering his teammate, Dickerson, proved to be one of the greatest NFL running backs of all-time. Put it this way: You know you have a great pair of backs when Dickerson hasn’t earned all the carries.
GO MUSTANGS!
