Colt McCoy has thrown 2 INT's in 6 minutes. Tebow got his brains beaten out on the biggest stage in college football. What does this mean? Mark Ingram....as bad as I hate it...just won the Heisman Trophy.

I think it's more like Colt McCoy is losing the heisman.

It's going to be close. McCoy still has a chance to be a hero, although it's not looking good. Ingram and Gerhart both moved into better position today. Tebow is out.

A Bama Championship and Heisman winner in one year? What a pity

yeah, unless it turns into mccoy throwing like 4-5 TDs in this leading to a blowout, ingram will at least have the better recent week.


I think the last 2 weeks for them both have put them at about even

The Heisman is a joke. It's turned into the best player on the best team who wins instead of best player in the country.

If we're going to base it on the last weekend, then Spiller should win it.

It's been that since like the mid to early 90s though (at least). Not a new thing

Assuming Ingram wins, it will have been 20 years since a Heisman winner has come from a team with less than 10 wins including their bowl game (Andre Ware, Houston, 1989, 9-2). There was also Tim Brown for Notre Dame in '87 (8-4), Bo Jackson for Auburn in '85 (8-4), Marcus Allen for USC in '81 (9-3) and George Rogers for South Carolina in '80 (8-4).

The fifty states of the U.S. are split into six regions, and six regional representatives are selected to appoint voters in their states (the regions include the Far West, the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Northeast, South, and Southwest). Each region has 145 media votes, for a total of 870 votes. In addition, all previous Heisman winners may vote, and one final vote is counted through public balloting. However, voters still attending college can not vote until said player's collegiate career is over. The Heisman ballots contain a 3-2-1 point system, in which each ballot ranks the voter's top three players and awards them three points for a first-place vote, two points for a second-place vote, and one point for a third-place vote. The points are tabulated, and the player with the highest total of points across all ballots wins the Heisman Trophy.

far west= Gerhart/McCoy country
mid-atlantic=Mix of Ingram, Spiller, McCoy and Tebow votes
McCoy will carry the midwest and southwest.
Id say that the south and northeast will split up their votes between Spiller, Ingram, and Tebow .

Colt McCoy will win the heisman.

Thanks for that. I wanted to say it's been since around Andre Ware but I couldnt remember the year he won it

There's alot of talk too that the committee changed their approach on choosing heisman too after that because Ware become such an NFL bust they were embarassed that they had awarded it to him

I think Ingram wins it, I wasn't impressed by Texas or McCoy today. Alabama and Ingram dominated the #1 team in the country. I think that gives him the edge. Nebraska was going in I think #22.

If it's done by the season as a body of work: McCoy

If it's as flippy and recent as the weekly AP/Coaches polls seem to be week in and week out (focusing on the most recent things as more relevant or significant than the earlier events): Ingram
