Just when I think ESPN dosn't have it in for our lads

I look at their Heisman polls. FOX Sports? DW4 #1. Sports Illustrated? DW4 #1. ESPN? I see Henry. I Have seen Fournette. I have even seen Boykin and McCaffery. DW4 nowhere on there. FO realz? You don't have to crown him but he darn sure is in the conversation.

yeah that blows my mind. considering how the team is playing that is ridiculous. if we had several losses maybe I'd understand but when we dont and he is a major reason it is nonsense of course it is on the Heisman voters not this poll

While I like your sentiment, it'll be too late by then.***

I can live with Henry if it comes down to it, BUT.. He hasnt been great every game. He didnt have a big game against Ole Miss, not his fault so much, they got behind quick and had to pass. BUT... Even if he gets it I can live with him, Fournette, even Cook. But they dont even MENTION DW4?
The other thing is, when did the Heisman become the award for the best player on the best team in the nation? Losing a game should not harm a player if hes say a QB say Boykin, and has a Horrible Defense. If he throws for 450 per game, 3-4 TDs and averages less than pick a game, thats a great season. Paul Horning won with a losing record. Where did the mentality change? You CAN still be the best player in the Country on a so so team. Think Drew Brees @ Purdue for example.

Hornung won because he played for ND. Look at his stats.***

He is a good back, but I dont see him doing a lot next level. Too slow IMO. Reminds me of Ron Dayne, big, hits the hole hard, like an old school Steeler back, but not in Fournette or Cook's level.

I think it will be pretty much the same, but...

expect he'll jump into top 5 tomorrow...the Heisman watch on ESPN is from 11/10, so the very small defense is that they are a week behind (granted, SI had DW #1 after FSU).
It's still hard to defend having Fournette and Boykin there after last week, but there is no way McCaffery and Fournette on 2 loss teams should be in top 5 now.
