Pretty good for a seemingly random number.  Good luck!

NO. 68 — MIKE REID, DT, PENN STATE (1966, '68-69)
Reid's persistence and determination made him the anchor of the Nittany Lion defense. In 1969 he was a unanimous All-America selection, Outland Trophy winner and Maxwell Award recipient.

Seeing Dave Casper’s name raises a question for me. First off, I never knew he was an OL in college, but I digress.

When did eligible numbers become a rule?   We’ve got some pretty solid historians on here.  Anyone know?
