Yep, but honestly, how many times does the Heisman actually go to the best player. Anymore, it goes to whoever ESPN or other media outlets shove down our throats.

It's not like they're shoving bad players down out throats though. While it may not always go to the best, it does go to someone who is deserving. They shove them down out throats because they're one of the best. It usually goes to the best person on the best team.

Yeah, I agree with that...especially the last part.

Heard about him all year; watched him for the first time vs. Mizzou and was like "Wow".

Then I watched him against Texas and couldn't believe what I was seeing. If only the Browns had kept losing so they could pick him #1 in April.

To be more specific, it goes to a RB/QB on one of the best teams. Because Ingram isn't even the best player on Alabama, that would be Rolando McClain.

Very deserving of this honor IMO. He looks to have outstanding pro potential. I'd like to see Tampa get him so they can start rebuilding that once powerful defense.

No doubt deserved this award. He was possessed and is going to be a BEAST at the next level.

The Browns should do everything possible to nab this guy - including trading up.

He's that good.

Suh done things from the DT position that I'm not sure I've ever seen in CFB. I'm glad to see he won this award!
