ESPN media bias at it again

[GoBigOrangeUT]

Jabril Peppers selected as a Heisman finalist. What a joke.

 

[allvol123]

Really is a joke.

I don't care about that trophy. I find it as meaningful as bottle of Dawn dishwashing soap.

Only certain places would a kid play linebacker and ever be considered for that crap trophy.

Nice game against Iowa.

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

He had less than 70 tackles, 1 int and 1 touchdown. Whoopty ****ing doo dah

He and Kongbo had the same amount of TDs.

Allen just won the Nagurski over Peppers. So that's one they got right.

really? you must have never used Dawn detergent to help get rid of fleas...sheesh!:loco:

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Peppers doesnt even begin to belong on this list. Funny how most said McCaffery would be a finalist this year.

 

[TennTom]

Jake Browning and Jalen Hurts got royally screwed. Especially Jake Browning.

Browning should be in over Watson. But disagree on Hurts

Still got it wrong. Should have been Barnett.

 

[FleeceItOut]

Jake Browning and Jalen Hurts got royally screwed. Especially Jake Browning.

Hurts? Really? Just because he plays for Bama?

The kid can not throw a lick.

 

[TennTom]

Hurts? Really? Just because he plays for Bama?

The kid can not throw a lick.

Yeah, he's only 8% better than the favorite Lamar Jackson in completion %. He's awful

 

[omghulkhands]

In my mind it's Jackson,then Mayfield, and nobody else is close

I like Mayfield, but he doesn't have to throw against real defenses.

 

[FleeceItOut]

Yeah bubble screens and quick slants really show off an arm.

 

[FleeceItOut]

I like Mayfield, but he doesn't have to throw against real defenses.

To be fair there aren't many great defenses.

Alabama and Michigan are stout and then there are a lot of average defenses.

In the Big XII there aren't any defenses. There isn't a single team in that conference in the Top 50 in total defense.

That's not his fault.

He will get a chance to torch Auburn which has a top 20 defense.

 

[bamawriter]

That's not his fault.

True, but I find it hard to include the guy in "best player" conversations when the 10 defenses he beat finished the year ranked

#51 - Kansas St
#74 - TCU
#78 - West Virginia
#82 - Baylor
#95 - Texas
#101 - Iowa St
#107 - Kansas
#108 - Oklahoma St
#119 - ULM
#128 - Texas Tech

Not a knock on the kid. He's a great player. But half his wins came against air.

That's a fair point. I don't think he is a heisman guy. I was just commenting on the defenses.

 

[Tidal Surge]

At least half a dozen players are more worthy to be there instead of Peppers.

Allen just won the Nagurski over Peppers. So that's one they got right.
