Troy Polamalu is an undeniable legend of USC football lore, and now his name will be etched in the halls of college football’s elite.
The two-time All-American safety was voted into the 2019 College Football Hall of Fame Class on Monday.
Polamalu’s accolades at the college level were many. A consensus All-American and Jim Thorpe Award finalist in 2002, he was integral to the establishment of USC as one of the powers in college football during the Pete Carroll era. He led USC in tackles and interceptions in 2001, setting a Las Vegas Bowl record for tackles with 20 to end that season.
