I was wondering if I should start my own thread as well.

But seriously, congrats to Mark.

I don't think the best player won....I think Suh is the best in the nation. But congrats to him anyhow.

Side note.....this is the least hype I can ever remember for the heisman trophy.

Very deserving of the award. The performance against Florida's defense in the SEC Championship had to weigh heavily on the voters' minds.

Congrats Mark Ingram....Side Note he has a little kids voice.

Loved his reaction, seeing his emotions really hit me how much this award means to football. You can tell hes a real good kid with a real passion for this game.

So my thread gets deleted even though I posted it first, just because your a mod? Not cool. (Really, I don't care.)

Well, We don't need to play the national championship game now because Alabama doesn't stand a chance with the reigning Heisman Trophy winner on their roster.

It will be Ingram, Gerhart, McCoy, Suh and Tebow in that order. Take that to the bank.

Big Ten Country votes for the two smash mouth runners to put him over the top.

Not too surprising there.

Tebow looked sorta ticked... No way he was expecting to win it this year with his performance this season.

I wonder who Timmy actually voted for?? The CBS guys earlier today tried to get him to say if he voted for himself or not, but he wouldn't take the bait.

off subject, but is Ingram projected as a top 5 pick?

Nevermind, I forgot he is a sophomore.

He's a true sophomore, so he has at least another year left in college.

Congrats to Ingram. I can't argue that pick.

How McCoy ended up in 3rd over Suh is beyond me. The midwest, northeast, and east all had Ingram, Gerhart, McCoy. I'd like to know the percentage of voters from those regions that turned in their votes early, because they couldn't have seen Suh single handedly beat the heisman trophy right out of McCoy's hands.
