On September 23, 2006, Michigan State made the wise decision to retire the NCAA football jersey (Number 95) of Charles “Bubba” Smith. The retirement ceremony was held during the 40th anniversary celebration of “The Game of the Century” where Bubba and the rest of the Spartans played against Notre Dame. That’s right, before his great acting career, Bubba Smith was one of the greatest defensive ends to play the game of football. Since his college years, Smith has been inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame, was drafted into the National Football League, and has won one Superbowl ring.
