I don't think so sir. Can you think of a better name for a Texan or Heisman trophy winner than Colt McCoy?

hm. I think it will come down to Bradford and Tebow. But, what I also think is the BIG 12 votes are going to be half for Bradford and half for McCoy. I think having 2 from the BIG 12 is going to hurt them. Tebow is gonna slide up the middle and take it from them!

Tebow is leading at StiffArmTrophy.com in 1st place votes, but is projected 3rd.

In a sort of related note, I thought Grossman received a little love when ESPN called Eric Crouch the worst-ever Heisman winner. link

hm. I say that would be a tie. Don't forget about Chris Weinke or Jason White...I don't think they were that good either. JMO.

The only reason OU has put up 60 or so points over the stretch is that they leave their first team offense and defense in the whole game. How many games were the Gators up by 35 by half or early in the third quarter at which point they pulled Tebow and most of the 1st team O & D? Just to finish the math implied by James, if Tebow had Bradford's number of attempts he would have had 4141 yds, 45 TDs and only 3 INTs. Not to mention Tebow's 540 yds and 12 TDs rushing compared to Bradfords 64 yds and 5 TDs. Just goes to show that no matter what people say about "class," running up the score really gets you into the Big 12 and BCS title games and gets your QB the Heisman.

I agree. This point hadn't been made ANYWHERE on any TV analysis. I was kinda disappointed by that. But, oh well, just another reason for Timmy to dominate on Jan 8th!

A Tebow endorsement.

link.

Also, you can honestly say "more people thought Tim Tebow should win the Heisman than anyone else", which is true, because he got the most first place votes. It's also worth noting that his point total in the southwest (read: Texas) was the lowest of any finalist in any region. Sportswriters in this region completely left Tebow off, usually for Harrell or Crabtree, but, according the stiffarmtrophy.com, the one guy voted Brandon Spikes 3rd, which sounds like a statement of 'I'm leaving Tebow off on purpose'. I just think it's funny that the south is largely regarded as the most delusional and crazy part of the country by national media, then they seem to have the most fair assesment of other people's Heisman candidates (i.e. they may have voted Tebow a lot- no shame there, the man had the most 1st place votes- but they still voted for Bradford. they didn't fill it out 1)Tebow 2)Knowshon Moreno 3) Eric Berry)
