Classic Tailback - Walter Payton - Jackson State Highlights

Walter Payton, known by many as "Sweetness," ran like few tailbacks have during his four years at Jackson State. There have been bigger and faster players at the position, but I don't know if I've seen a player run with as much reckless abandon as Payton.

The best running back to ever play the game, sweetness Walter Payton.

This has to make it's way into every football fan's life immediately. Great work!

We will miss you Walter

[@nothx962]

We have BEEN missing him. He has sadly been gone for more than 2 decades now...

[@emilkoch4098]

As a loyal bears fan, and fan of Walter thank you for this upload!!! It's insane to me just how fast he ran in college, and knowing where to be, knowing when to cut back. Walter had the speed of a world class sprinter. Awesome college highlights!!!

[@johnpoulton9446]

Pocket Candy!!! Thee Legend!!! Sweetness footage had to be hard to get!! Thank you as always my man!!! Again you seem to be one of the few that knows there can be beauty in a 5 yd run when done right!!!!

[@jamesstewart4494]

Grew up a Cardinals fan, I remember his rookie year at Chicago, I was 9, that’s what I wanted to be when I grew up after that. Had the privilege of meeting him my Jr. year of high school, just an awesome human being is all I can say.

[@blakebrown84]

I ain’t never seen Walter Payton highlights from Jackson State. He is one of the greatest running backs to ever play football.🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

[@quann06]

Walter Payton is a complete beast.

[@meezie81]

Amazing as always! This footage is almost like someone finding video of Sugar Ray Robinson as a welterweight. Props to you, sir.

[@realroofers]

What a great yet sad story. Why must the people that lead us with such class always leave us sad alone to try to emulate the impossible.

[@andrewhiedelburg4576]

The first tackler just wasn't bringing him down.

[@PockyCandy]

Longtime subscriber BreuckelensFinest has been requesting a Walter Payton video for years, so here it is! While Payton had the talent to play for any college in the SEC, the South was still only a few years removed from segregation. Because of this, neither Mississippi State nor Ole Miss offered Payton a scholarship. That Jackson State team was still loaded with talent though, as his teammates included HoF tackle Jackie Slater and All-Pro Robert Brazille while he played Tigers. As always, I hope you enjoy this video, and let me know what player you would like to see next!

[@PockyCandy]

And yes, I'm still waiting for COVID-19 to go away. Everyone needs to wash their hands, listen to health experts, watch your local news and read your local newspapers, and be smart.

Who's the blues guitarist? Please credit them

[@PockyCandy]

I found the music on KZbin's copyright free audio library. You're right though, I should credit them.

[@toms.2551]

@@PockyCandy interesting enough, from what I could figure out this was taken from music that is not copyrighted by a Chinese artist ( I use that term loosely, thief is more fitting) that takes Creative Commons music and Market's it as his own for profit.

Inferior? Those HBCU's could have beaten any of those so call top tier time in the early 70's.. You don't know history do you?
