Hooker is not a Heisman finalist and you don't want to know who is 🤬

At least your name's accurate.

It's always kind of irritating how we always seem to collect the poop-stained underside of the bottom of the barrel from other fanbases. I guess your own board "goesn't" work.

Probably not but all I keep reading about here are numbers. If we're gonna be purely stats driven about it the four are Stroud, Hooker, McCall (Coastal), and Centeio (James Madison). No one here is melting down about Duggan being among the finalists but Kurts Rourke (Ohio), Frank Harris (UTSA), and Bo Nix (Oregon) all have better stats.

What highlights the lunacy best for me is that Bennett wasn't even voted onto the All SEC team.....not even the 2nd team.
The people casting these votes are far more knowledgeable about SEC football than are the Heisman voters....pretty much says it all.

Lol . . . No, I'm truly confused about what you mean.

I don't ever knock y'all for OOC schedule. It's not easy putting P5 teams on the schedule when you've got GT at the end every year and every other year you give up a home date to play Florida in Jacksonville.

You ever wonder why that is? That it's the poop-stained that seem drawn here?

Honorable mention all SEC does not equal heisman candidate, no matter how you spin it. He's just a feel good story and the dumb*** media bought into it.

His team is likely to win the NC again. He's a former walk on with pretty good numbers and the leader of a great team.

I don't like Bennett particularly. But I have less problem with him being invited than Hooker not being invited. If I were going to pick a guy for him to replace then the TCU QB would be first and Stroud would actually be second. Point to numbers if you like but he led a super talented team against a relatively weak schedule and lost to the only "great" opponent he played without producing a "Heisman moment".

I'm pushing back on poster's knock on UGA for scheduing Kent State and Samford, while the Vols played UT Martin and Akron.

Tell us again..... Where's your Heisman finalist QB?

Well, if you go by the definition of the award: "...recognizes the outstanding the college football player whose performances best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity. The winners of the trophy epitomize great ability combined with diligence, perseverance, and hard work." Bennett certainly meets that definition, If you go by stats, as seems to typically be the case, I think you replace Bennett with Hooker.

Wow! Talk about the Nazi press. I tried to comment on yahoo about UT's QB getting snubbed. They would not accept my comment because his last name (Hooker) was inappropriate. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:o_O

Hooker meets that definition better than anyone, PLUS he has the stats.

You look like a real dumbass troll defending your boy on a Tennessee message board..

In regards to a UGA troll, I'll quote Cyrus the Virus, "You're somewhere between a cockroach and that white stuff that accumulates at the corner of your mouth when you're really thirsty."

Last time I checked, excellence in performance is typically backed up by statistical data

Bowers led that team. most of Bennett's stats are because of Bowers. The only reason he is on the list is because they like his story. He is merely a plug and play QB capable of not fudging up too much and delivering the ball to real playmakers. a serviceable highschool QB could do the same for UGA. I bet Bowers has some real animosity about this, if not he must have good character.

Bennett can't even make "Honorable Mention" (meaning that there are at least 3 QBs, just in the conference, that are better than him) but he's one of the top four offensive players in the country?

You're seriously not seeing the disconnect here?

If it's purely stats driven, then yes, there is a disconnect. Going by the definition of the award, he certainly seems to fit the bill. If you're a fan of a QB who has bigger numbers, I guess it bothers you. I don't expect Bennett will win. I think it will be Williams. I want a win over OSU then a win in the finals.

Bowers has 51 more receiving yards than McConkey, 1 more reception and 1 more TD. You think McConkey is also mad?

I have no idea if this is true, but it was mentioned on ESPN that Hendon couldn't be invited to NY if he was hurt. That doesn't make any sense but that was what was said. I honestly hope that's why he wasn't instead of just being snubbed.
