Recently Louisville Freshman QB Lamar Jackson went viral for beating the pants of NBA point guard Rajon Rondo in a foot race down the street.

That got me thinking...this could be a cool topic to debate on here. What athletes would you like to see lineup and race? Who would win?

Some matchups that pop into mind...

Terrell Pryor vs Cam Newton (give me Cam)
Russ Smith vs Mike Connely (give me Russ)
Pat White vs Steve Slaton (smart money says Slaton since he's an RB but White could FLY)

Mario Alford vs. Kevin White would be pretty interesting as well.

Surprised that video went viral. You can't see anything.

Sorry you can't turn back the clock, how about vs Breshad Perriman and his (4.25 40)?

I'm still trying to figure out why is Rajon Rondo-(a All Star NBA Player) is racing a 18 year old College Freshmen...

Weren't his times 4.22 thru 4.27? Either way the dude is fast and would give Johnson a run for the money.
