This is the worst Heisman race I can remember. Johnny Manziel will be ESPN's candidate, we know that much. You all want Miller, that's also obvious.

ESPN's experts (lol...) had these rankings going into yesterday:

1- Colin Klein
2- Johnny Manziel
3- Kenjon Barner
4- Manti Te'o
5- Braxton Miller
6- Marqise Lee
7- Marcus Mariota
8- Giovani Bernard
9- Tajh Boyd

Bolded all lost. Thoughts?

Of course ND fans want Te'o to win it...he plays for our team. Makes sense, does it not? Now does he deserve it? I think it's a down year for stars in college football and there may be more deserving players but sure...as an ND fan....I'd like to see Te'o win it.

never said there was a problem with ND fans wanting him to win it. We all know why this thread was made though.

OP is right though...this is a year where there are no obvious standouts.

I disagree. IMO, there are many standouts, and that's what's making it difficult to identify a frontrunner.

Te'o isn't even the best LB on a undefeated team in the country.

I'm a Notre Dame fan and I'm willing to admit I'd probably vote for Braxton Miller over Manti Te'o but that statement is just ridiculous.

Then why isn't this better LB on an undefeated team being mentioned for the award? Honest question.

First of all, because he doesn't deserve to be, and secondly, because there is already someone "being mentioned for the award" from said undefeated team.

So instead of explaining why you think Shazier is better than Te'o you correct my grammar?

Do you think Te'o deserves to be mentioned and who do you think is the better football player....Te'o or Shazier? Again, just an honest question. You're a reasonable poster on here so I like to hear your take on things.

Neither Shazier nor Te'o should be in the discussion. Shazier is the better player.
