The insane part is that RGIII would have set the national record for passer rating if it wasn't for Wilson. Obviously the games from this week aren't in yet but they could both set the record.

Trent Richardson: 23 total TDs, 1583 yds rushing.

One is pretty much the consensus Heisman favorite right now, while the other is hardly mentioned. GTFO

If there was a legitimate SEC bias then Mathieu would be getting some Heisman love.

TM7 is possibly the best player in the country. One bad decision hurt him. He wouldnt of won anyhow because of the offense bias. A player like TM7 doesnt come around hardly ever while good QB's and RB's are around every year.

the fact that he got caught with fake marijuana shouldnt have anything to do with judging who the most outstanding player in the country is.

another flaw in the system.

With him missing a game and having a bad game before the suspension and not doing much for a couple games after the suspension wouldnt help. But, possibly 9 games out of 13 he was a superstar making a ton of great plays that star players dont do in 4 years. He's the reason for LSU turning it around today. He causes turnovers and scores points on defense and special teams.

If LaMichael James didn't miss two games he would be right in there too. Probably would have topped 2000 rushing yards.

Ball is the best player in the country.

Alabama has beaten every team they've played by 16 or more (except a loss to the best team in OT). And 10 of those 11 wins have been by 24 or more. Wisconsin lost to a 6-6 team in which Ball failed to get over 85 yards, a week after losing to a three loss team...

Also, Tyrann Matheui or Luck is the best player... not Mante Ball.

No way Richardson should win it over Ball

The Heisman is a individual award not a team award.

Richardson only had 77 yds against 5-7 Tennesee. Lets look at the 1 common opponent Bama Wisky had, Penn State.

Ball vs Penn state: 25 rushes ,156 yds, 4 Td's - Wisky wins 45-7

Richardson vs Penn State: 26 rushes , 111 yds, 2 Td's - Bama wins 27-11

Neither does Andrew Luck. Not every QB is the "best NFL prospect at the position since Peyton Manning".

He's not getting love because they don't give the Heisman to a kick returner. He has 2 int's this year.

Other then lsu, Richardson was doing it against mediocre teams too. The sec just isn't the same this year as in the last few years.

TM7 is very overrated. CBS didn't go to Tebow level status last night, but you could tell they were trying to throw TM7 to the front of the Heisman race.

The SEC wasn't that great the last few years either.

He has 6 forced fumbles, 5 fumble recoveries, 2 defensive touchdowns, 16 pass breakup/deflections, and leads the team in tackles.

Yup, just a kick returner. Get out of here with your laughable ignorance.
