Marshawn Lynch found his place in hearts of Cal fans with him creating memories when he played running back from 2004-06. One such memory came in 2006, as when California beat Washington, Lynch drove the injury cart to the field and celebrated the win.

In college, Lynch had 490 carries for 3,230 yards and 29 touchdowns. He also received 68 catches for 600 yards and six touchdowns. After the 2006 season, he declared for the 2007 NFL Draft, where he was picked in the first round by the Buffalo Bills.

His 12 seasons in the NFL saw him winning Super Bowl 48 as well as earning five Pro-Bowl selections.
