Using Galloway and Ohio State on Sega's Bill Walsh College Football 95 was cheating. Why? Because EA recognized that Joey G. was Crazy Fast.

Joey Galloway is one of my favorite Ohio State receivers. Every time he was on the field I anticipated a long touchdown catch and run. He led the team in receiving in 1993 and 1994.

When Galloway played I had never witnessed a player as fast as he was in a Buckeye uniform. He won the state track title in the 100 and 200 meter dash and his speed translated to the football field. I remember somebody saying that Galloway wasn't fast, he was crazy fast. That description has always stayed with me. Joey "Crazy Fast" Galloway is what I call him.

Geek Note:  Galloway was also a beast on Bill Walsh College Football '95 for SEGA.  Ohio State was unstoppable with Galloway, George, and Hoying. My friend Joe stopped playing the game because of Galloway and George.

The game was made easy. Throw the deep ball to No.7. Galloway was always lined up on the left and would always make the catch.
