Football season is here! So what a better time than to remind us, this means we all have a reason to watch these fit athletes run up and down the field from our TV screens. Below is a countdown of the players we think collegiettes should look out for. The first one goes with out saying (we did not even bother adding him to the list, we aready know he is many collegiettes favorite player – helloooo Tom!). 

 

10- Mark Sanchez- This former Long Beach hottie took to the streets of New York and is now quarterback of the New York Jets. He comes in at number 10 for his charming smile and rugged body. Outside of his looks, he’s also won many awards such as being a 3x Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Week winner and on Sporting News’ All-Rookie Team selection.

 

9- Joe Flacco- This charming 2013 Super Bowl MVP took the Baltimore Ravens to victory last year against the crowd favorite the 49ers and has won many awards such as ECAC’s player of the year in 2007 and Pepsi NFL’s Rookie of the year in 2008. Other than his stellar performance on the field, his dreamy brown eyes and his charismatic smile help him score off the field too.

 

8- Tim Tebow- This free agent quarterback makes heads turn for more than just coining “tebowing.” He’s a muscular Floridian Hottie with a dashing image who was the first college sophomore to win the Heisman Trophy in 2007 and AP’s player of the year that same year. He’s also had some amazing performances on the Broncos and the Jets, and he’s handsome as well. What’s not to love?

 

7- Tony Romo- Thank god this hunk is now a free agent both on and off the field! This Dallas Cowboys Quarterback never fails to sport his ripped body and his beautiful bone structure with poise and dignity. And his smile just leaves a Collegiette always wanting more. And to top his dashing looks, he’s also been a 3x Pro Bowl selection. Looks like you can have it all.

 

6- Reggie Bush- This hottie mostly known for his former relationship with diva Kim Kardashian is currently a running back for the lions and helped the Saints go to a Superbowl Victory in 2010. Reggie’s classy sense of style and his oh-so-sexy ear piercing makes girls go gaga and his charity work for Haiti relief in 2010 shows that you can be both good looking and have a good heart.

 

 

5- Matt Forte- This severely underrated hottie is currently a running back on the Chicago Bears and has unique and lovable features.  This Tulane grad loves kicking back and playing video games after long days working on the field and was a 2011 pro bowl pick. And the best part about him? He’s single!

 

4- Blaine Gabbert- This Jacksonville Jaguars ruggedly handsome quarterback steals the hearts of many every time he steps on the field. His fantastic hair and outgoing, competitive attitude steal the hearts of many when he plays. He also holds the Jaguars record for most rookie starts at QB.

 

3- Joey Harrington- Not only is this former Detroit Quarterback a hottie, but he has a heart of gold.  After a successful career in the NFL, this cutie started a foundation dedicated to supporting youth education with the signing bonus he got from signing with the Lions. This wonderful spirit coupled with those beautiful brown eyes and amazing abs makes Harrington hard to beat.

 

2- Cam Newton- This Panther’s quarterback is an all around hottie. He’s tall, charming, and just happens to be a motivational speaker too. His list of accomplishments are a mile long, from being Pepsi NFL Rookie of the year in 2011 to winning a Heisman Trophy and the Manning award in 2010. He’s a relatively new player to the NFL scene, but he has the skills to prove he’s worth keeping, Peyton Manning’s record as a rookie by throwing 400 yards in his first NFL season.

 

1- Chad Ochocinco- Our ultimate NFL hottie is Patriots sensation Chad Ochocinco. This wide receiver has been named to three All-Pro teams and is a six time NFL Pro Bowler. On top of this, his sexy smolder and successful Dancing with the Stars career makes him the ultimate package.
