LSU legend Alan Faneca is featured on the College Football Hall of Fame ballot

Faneca was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2021

Earlier this week, The Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame announced the names for the ballot induction into the Hall. There are 77 players and 9 coaches from the football bowl subdivision and numerous more from lower divisions up for enshrinement.

There is only one LSU Tiger on the ballot this year. It’s a little surprising that it took this long since he was an All-American in 1997 and a two time first team SEC.
