Why Cam Newton’s College Dominance Still Leaves Experts Stunned—Years After Auburn Glory
“Auburn probably wins six or seven games without Cam.”
Bruce Feldman’s rankings, published in The Athletic, spotlight Newton’s “Superman” season as the most valuable individual performance of the modern college football era. Newton wasn’t just a playmaker — he was the system, the leader, and the only reason Auburn hoisted the crystal football that year.
Compared to players like Bush — who shared the spotlight with future NFL stars — Newton was a one-man dynasty. That’s why Feldman and his panel elevated him to No. 1 on their list of top NCAA players since 2000. Newton isn’t just the best Tigers quarterback ever — he may be the most dominant player since the turn of the millennium.
