His four-year dominance, powerful running style, and magnetic personality made him a fan favorite in Austin and a symbol of Longhorns football. Texas retired his #34 jersey in a pregame ceremony on September 30, 2000, and he was later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame — permanent honors that cemented his place among the program's all-time legends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe 1998 Heisman and the NCAA Rushing Record\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWilliams' 1998 senior season was one of the finest individual campaigns in college football history. \u003cstrong\u003eHe rushed for 2,124 yards and 27 touchdowns, swept the sport's major individual awards — the Heisman Trophy, the Maxwell Award, and the Walter Camp Player of the Year — and became the first-ever two-time winner of the Doak Walker Award as the nation's top running back.\u003c\/strong\u003e The defining moment came on November 27, 1998, against archrival Texas A\u0026amp;M: needing 62 yards to break Tony Dorsett's 22-year-old NCAA Division I-A career rushing record, Williams took a first-quarter handoff and broke through several tacklers for a 60-yard touchdown run that shattered the mark — with Dorsett himself waiting on the Texas sideline to personally congratulate him. Williams finished his career with 6,279 rushing yards, 75 total touchdowns, and a then-NCAA-record 6.21 career yards per carry, surpassing the mark held by Ohio State's two-time Heisman winner Archie Griffin. Selected fifth overall in the 1999 NFL Draft, Williams went on to lead the NFL in rushing in 2002, but his legendary Texas tenure remains the foundation of his place in football history — the era this burnt orange jersey represents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eJSA Authentication\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jersey has been certified authentic by \u003cstrong\u003eJames Spence Authentication (JSA)\u003c\/strong\u003e.
