Heisman Trophy Preview
I woke up this morning convinced that Alabama running back Mark Ingram is a lock to be the first Alabama Crimson Tide player to win the Heisman Trophy. After doing some research this morning, I am not as sure about Ingram. I mentioned earlier this week that I know three Knoxville voters that are picking [...]
Suh Among Five Heisman Finalists
Nebraska defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh, Texas quarterback Colt McCoy, Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, Alabama running back Mark Ingram and Stanford running back Toby Gerhart are the five finalists headed to New York for the Heisman Trophy. I seriously doubt Suh has a chance, but he is the most dominating player in college football. I know of [...]
Spiller is College Football’s MVP
Â
It seems that every journalist or former Heisman Trophy winner votes for the award in a different way.

The two penalties on Florida’s last touchdown drive were the difference in the game, and quite possibly Florida’s BCS title hopes. Today’s players are so big and fast [...]
Ricky Williams Proves Why The Heisman is a Joke
Miami Dolphins Ricky Williams is having a great start to his season with the Dolphins, but the former Heisman Trophy winner said something yesterday that shows the voting in the Heisman Trophy is so biased. Williams was on The Dan Patrick Show and said quarterback Colt McCoy is his pick right now for the Heisman [...]
Heisman Beef
The Wall Street Journal had an excellent article today about the lack of Heisman trophies won by southern schools. Alabama, which has more national titles than any school other than Notre Dame, has never had a player win the Heisman. We believe that no southern school should have won the Heisman during segregation, and aren’t [...]
