I remember when it was debated for weeks. The show was a ratings smash. Everyone was excited.
Amazing how it has fallen and become pretty irrelevant.

Wow, Heisman Trophy awarded and no threads on it
- Thread starter The Spin Meister
- Start date
Say, can I have some of those purple berries?
This year was kind of blah. Not sure there's a trend yet. There wasn't really a Heisman moment. The favorites got blown out in their last game and backed into it. Williams won both for his body of work and leadership, but who saw a USC game this year? I thought Duggan should have been given more consideration, but he came out of nowhere and plays for a non-Blue-Blood.
Just read that four of the last six winners were transfer players. That could be a big part of the equation. Hard to have a large fan base of kids that are moving around all the time.
They lost me at Ki-Jana......
What especially sucked was that the 2K+ yards threshold somehow automatically triggered giving the award to Salaam over Ki-Jana, but it was conveniently overlooked when Larry achieved it.
And if Johnson had played the second half against Sparty he would have had at least 150 more yards.
Was at that game and I totally agree. There was just no stopping him that day.
That would have been a historic day in college football. May have had five hundred yards.
What was on Caleb's fingernails for the acceptance? F*ck _ _ _ _ ?
Take a look at USC’s schedule and tell me he was the best player in college football. ESPN just doesn’t pass the eye test, anymore.
Some years have multiple well known and deserving players. Some years have a bunch of really good players, but none of them had what feels like a “Heisman” season. This is one of those years. Williams is a great player and projected top pick in the 24 draft but just a blah list of finalists.
Sitting i
Being in the stands for LJ's 279 yd 4 touchdown FIRST HALF pasting of Michigan State is certainly a Great Beaver Stadium memory.
Haven’t paid attention to it in years. It’s like the vote for prom king, popularity contest.
