McCaffrey should run away with this award. Because he is a white running back which is widely considered a black guys position he doesn't get the respect he deserves. His season is on par with Barry sanders. Imo this kid is by far the best college football player. I just hope he wins. With that being said, anyone one of those three players should win it, and deserve it, so it wouldn't be a sham if someone else wins because they all did amazing.
Except Sanders had 22 more touchdowns that season and he only played 11 games to get his totals
They aren't even remotely comparable.
I remember that year. Good times.
FWIW, one of the loudest cheers from the UF section when we played at Bama in '98 was watching Lamar Thomas getting stripped by George Teague in your "This is Alabama Football" video intro.
On a somewhat related note, a Bama alum and co-worker named his lab puppy Lemanski after that '93 Sugar Bowl.
