Manziel wins Heisman
Surely this is a Q right? I was surprised I didn't see a thread. Te'o second, Klein 3rd. I'm sure it's a Q. Oh well, it's football news... and I don't even follow college football.

I'm cool with Manziel winning the award. He had a great season and just looking at his stats he was certainly deserving. I just wish they would call the Heisman what it really is, "the offensive MVP award".
There has never been a player that played strictly defense win the award. And anyone who posts a picture of Woodson to dispute this fact is a ****ing moron. Woodson's coaches played him on offense for several plays for the explicit reason of improving his Heisman resume. I wonder what a defensive player has to do to win the Heisman? Suh was worthy and despite all the ND hate, Teo was worthy. 7 ints while still playing strong run defense and displaying unbelievable leadership skills is phenomenal. He deserved to be on that stage and if he would have won there shouldn't have been much argument. |

I watched every game Manziel played this year because he is truly exciting to watch. He is a better version of Steve Young. Whoever drafts him will be a lucky team. He is the EXACT OPPOSITE of Cassel . Johnny Football rocks !

Comparing him to Tebow and Cam Newton and then saying thats the reason you gave him the Heisman is ridiculous. So it's about 4600 passing yards? I thought the Heisman was for the best player in all of college football. A quarterback on a 10-2 team is not the best player in college football. A quarterback who had one win against a top 10 team and that is only because his defense contributed an end game stand to secure the win. Basically the pundits are saying because he won against Alabama, and because he had more passing yards than Cam Newton and Tim Tebow... because we know Tim Tebow was a passing quarterback, that he deserves the Heisman.
I thought it should've gone to Teo. That is the guy who encompasses a leader and a student athlete in the truest sense of the word. I think it's funny how Colin Klein has a bad game or two and is suddenly out of it. Last night people kept saying "Don't forget about Colin Klein." Everyone it seems forgot about Colin Klein. So what we've learned about the Heisman is: If you have a concussion, and you have an off game or two, you're DQ'd. If you have more passing yards than the guy who won it before you, your chances are really good. If you have a win over an overrated team, comparative to years past, your in. If you are a stand up guy, who led a defense, team, and college, back from obscurity... sorry, you're a defensive player, we only give the Heisman to QB's, RB's and WR's. |

Oh yeah and if the media runs off with a catchy nickname for you, you're golden.
