Who wins the Heisman Trophy....
Johnny Manziel - First Freshman
Manti Te'o - First Defensive Player
Collin Klein - A Safe Pic
This is the reason that the Heisman is a joke. Manizel is going to win the trophy, but he shouldn't. His hype is based on two games - and in large part the Alabama game. The rest of the season he was a mediocre football player. Great for a freshman, but is isn't in the same category as a lot of other players out there.based on total numbers, Johnny .... he hyped right by Newtons #'s and set the NCAA record for total offense despite two so-so games. ... LSU and Florida games would be a different story today, and ND would be playing for 2nd place. Been a while since a football field saw a kid play like Johnny Football Manziel
Against FL he didn't throw for a touchdown on only one rushing TD. Against LSU he threw 3 INT's and didn't have a TD. Its great Texas A&M beat AL and he had a great game, but one game shouldn't give you the Heisman.
Who should get it? Not sure I would give to any of the three thats listed. The Heisman has become the best "hype award". If I had to choose of that three, I would pick Te'o. He has had a better season than Manizel. Originally Posted by Stick1969

Stick you sound like a bitter fan. Originally Posted by BoltfanNo, to the contrary. An ambivalent fan of the Heisman. To me, the Heisman lost all credibility when Charles Woodson won it over Payton Manning. My father will say that the Heisman lost all credibility when Paul Horning won it while playing on a team with a loosing record.
Mediocre????Yes, he is a accumalotor and A&M is a damn good team. Like I said, he had two impact-full games. Alabama and Mizzu. Two incredible games!
Are you sure we're talking about the same kid????????
Have you checked out his season stats?
If he doesn't get picked, simply because he's a freshman.... then, the whole Heisman concept is nothing but a sham! Originally Posted by MrGiz

when the kids from KS and ND rewrite the NCAA record book like Manziel did, call me. Originally Posted by CJ7
