2-5 In bowl games after they win the heisman. I read this today in an article and am just amazed at their lack of success winning the last game. Why do you think that is?

The trophy gives off electromagnetic waves that alter equilibrium.

Yeah... I'm glad Peyton didnt win... Nebraska surely would've beaten us if he had :)

Yesterday was not Tebow's fault. The guy threw four touchdown passes with no picks and completed just over 50% of his passes and ran for about 60 yards, all with a defense that was tee'd off on him and allowed to blitz like crazy.

I have no problem with pointing out poor individual performances by HT winners in their bowl games. But anyone who tries to cast this as Tebow's failure either did not watch the game or is just plain stupid.

Oh.

Well in that case never mind.

Just getting tired of people trying to argue that the loss yesterday was his fault. I'm hearing that a lot from the usual TT detractors and its just so wrong.

See that's why its good not to assume. :p I was paying attention to my game at Tampa, not being able to watch the FLA game, so I don't know what Tebow did or didn't do.

I had to do something for the 10 hours from Tampa and well I read the paper about that. They didn't say much about Tebow, just the fact that he has lost as well as the others listing their games and whatnot. I just thought it was interesting because I would think that these guys win because they are playing great year round and then they lose a game after they win the trophy, whether it was because of them or the defense, or just not prepared to play.

Tebow didnt have a great game. His numbers are almost identical to his Auburn or LSU numbers... but as you said, I think it was directly related to the fact that he was under pressure all day long. It was a tough game and he cant do it by himself. It would've helped had someone not named Harvin & Tebow showed up on offense... you could tell they were drained towards the end of the game. You cant fault Tebow for the rest of the team leaning on him so much.

Sounds like our team when we had Peyton.
