The Heisman's been a complete joke since 1956. Paul Hornung won it that year for guiding N.D. to a 2-8 record.

Hear Hear. I'd guess the actual Heisman winner is not the best player in the country 75% of the time. It's basically what QB on what high profile team ran the score up the most in their wins. If I'm looking at Heisman winners this century, I'd say Burrow, Winston, Manziel, Newton, and Tebow are the only clear winners (though half of those should probably be disqualified since it's also supposed to consider character), and Crouch and Smith are maybes.

With Fields out, they have him rated as the 2nd best odds right now behind Lawrence.

Gonna be an asterisk year, considering every (I'm assuming) award will have preseason finalists not playing, but go ahead and do it in the fall.

Except for the natty. The only teams with a realistic chance will be playing.

There are no *sterisks in football! Teams either play or they don't.

FWIW, it sucks that Ohio State is not playing. Wish they could find a way.

O-H!

That's just hype.
Let's see him (Rattler) play first.
He will be fortunate to even be the first or second team all Big Xii QB this year.

His body of work speaks for itself. I mean he hasn't lost a game he's started in college in his whole career. :D
