Poll: The Heisman Trophy and the Most Outstanding Player in College Football

PrintGoing into the season, most pundits thought that Colt McCoy, Sam Bradford or Tim Tebow would run away with the Heisman Trophy this year. McCoy and Tebow will be making the trip to New York but they have a few unexpected names joining them. Many awards represent the "best" player in a particular category but the Heisman Trophy is different. College Football's most publicized award seeks to reward the "most outstanding player in collegiate football". It may not the be the best quarterback or the player who has the most potential at the next level. Given those conditions, we give you today's poll.

Suh and Gerhart were clearly the most dominant players in the country
but Ingram is going to win because the voters are idiots, and will prove that the Heisman is a total sham.

I don’t really care who wins the Heisman so long as it is not Tebow or McCoy.
Tebow doesn’t have the numbers and played in a pretty weak SEC (comparatively) this year.
McCoy was owned by Suh and looked awful in the Big 12 championship game. Even without that game, a lot of McCoy’s success can be attributed to his roomate Jordan Shipley who seemingly turned McCoy’s 10 yard slant passes into 90 yard TDs every play.
My ballot:
Suh
Ingram
Gerhart
there are no justifiable grounds to have Ingram over Gerhart
--Dave
Addicted to Quack, SBN's Oregon Ducks blog
there are plenty
1. Ingram rushed .75 yards more per carry
2. Ingram had twice as many receiving yards
to expound on this point, Ingram plays for a team that hasn’t lost any games. Although that may be unfair, people take that into consideration. Also, a lot of people outside of the west coast still view Pac-10 defenses as “soft” whereas SEC defenses are viewed as “elite”.

A Heisman winner can’t rush for 30 yards in his rivalry game.

i agree
toby was strong all year. only twice under 100 (82, 96) and he was at his best in big games. the only thing stopping him from running away with it is they lost 4 games but so did nebraska.

I will admit that I like Colt McCoy.
I have no reason to. However, I think he is a great quarterback who has been pretty much great this year. Despite his “awful” Big XII Championship game, I think he has earned at least the top two in the Heisman. Let’s be honest, Toby Gerhart is not going to win it, no matter how deserving we think he is.

Hey, WTF?
I turned on my TV and looked at the guide and there’s no college football on. What has happened? What the hell am I supposed to do on Saturdays from now on? Am I to understand this will keep happening from now until September 4th, 2010?

First, obviously tickets aren’t falling off of trees and I’m not working hard enough yet if I want to have a chance to get them, because point #2 is making it not look good.
Second, my wife just about HATES football, and yes, I understand hate is a strong word and I’m accurately describing her thoughts about football.

He’s pretty incredible.
Also, there’s this thing called the Wendy’s High School Heisman that’s there too, and a senior from my school is one of the top 10 finalists! It’s pretty cool
37-33, 47-20, 42-3, 65-38...So many scores to choose from!

After looking at all of his stats.
Just flat out ridiculous for a defensive tackle that was constantly double and triple-teamed all year.
Men's basketball
Since our Ducks are clearly not making the Big Dance this year, I’m planning to adopt a team for March Madness. I’m leaning towards Villanova or Syracuse
the cuse are a good pick.
my heisman ballot:
Suh
Gearhart
Ingram
Spiller
Mccoy
Your official City Crow Of Eugene. Serving the community since 2009!
I watched Toby This morning in a replay
On ESPNU destroy Notre Dame single handedly in the fourth quarter, and I just can’t see him not deserving it more than anyone. Ingram and Suh are both great, and I would give Suh the edge there, based on his value to the team as a whole. Ingram is NOT the star of the ’Bama team, their defense is. Toby Gerhart is the heart and soul of Stanford this season, everything hinges on him having success, to me that makes him the most outstanding player, not to mention all the stats back him up which helps.

If Suh doesn’t win, I think it makes the award even more meaningless. He’s the most talented and biggest contributor on any team in the country.
Even when other players on his team get a sack, it’s because he’s tying up 3 other blockers.
The losses Nebraska has made have nothing to do because of Suh.
its spelled "S-h-u-t-t-h-e H e-l-l-U-p-F-E-L-T"
He won't win
But it’d be nice to have another kid from Oregon besides Terry Baker who won the Heisman.

Ingram is going to win

Addicted to Quack, SBN's Oregon Ducks blog
I guess the debate between Ingram vs. Suh/Gerhart is winning teams...
Do you give the Heisman to the best player on the best team in the country? Or do you give to a guy like Gerhart or Suh who single-handedly won at least 2 games for them?
Me? I’m personally under the belief that you give it to the most outstanding college player who made the biggest impact to their team. Obviously, you can’t have a guy like Baylor’s Robert Griffin (when healthy) win the trophy when Baylor doesn’t go to a bowl. But watching Gerhart win his team games against us, USC and ND and Suh dominating the 2nd half of the Missorui-Nebraska game in a downpour makes you think one of those two is the most outstanding player in college this year. Basically, if either one of them wins I’ll be happy – if Ingram wins I won’t be surprised.
I personally know Robert, he went to my old high school
Nice to see him gather respect.

If any of these players win the Heisman, this is what the award should be called.
If McCoy wins=The Lifetime achievement Award.
If Ingram wins= The Best player on highest ranked team Award.
If Tebow wins= The I’m F’in Tim “F’in” Tebow Award.
If Suh wins= The Too Bad they Don’t Give These Things to Defensive Player More Often Award.
If Garheart=The Heisman Trophy

Doh, Garhart*
"When LaMichael James decides he's going North. The foot goes in the ground and it's 0 to 60 now!" Jesse Palmer.
I just have a hard time seeing the argument that Gerhart deserves it more than Suh.
He’s statistics are far more impressive than Gerhart’s, and his contribution to the overall team outshines it. Nebraska without Suh is borderline laughable. Nebraska with Suh is a team that can compete against the most potent offenses.
Stanford without Gerhart still has Luck that likely has a great future ahead of him.
its spelled "S-h-u-t-t-h-e H e-l-l-U-p-F-E-L-T"
It’s not that Suh doesn’t deserve it, he does. To be nominated as a true defensive player is a big step, because they’ve never won the award. (I’m not counting Woodson with his special teams and offensive play.)

Let’s not forget, if the Nebraska offense was even competent, they’re a two-loss team, looking at a BCS bid.
They had the 88th ranked offense in college football. Their defense was ranked 4th, in large part due to Suh.

Gerhart
Statistical rankings for gerhart according to CFBstats.com
scoring: 1
rushing yards: 1
Touchdowns: 1
Yards/game: 2
Traditional Heisman winner: offensive player
With that said, if there was ever a year to give it to a defensive guy this is it
Gerhart has been solid, no doubt. But he’s also a benefactor of a QB that showed great flashes.
Also, other statistical rankings he has had:
Rushing Attempts: 1st
Rushing Average: 75th (Wow! Heisman OMG!)
TDs aren’t an important statistic for RB, in my opinion. At least, not ones that are within 3 yards of the goal line. Any RB should be able to make that. Failure to do so is usually a result of bad blocking.
its spelled "S-h-u-t-t-h-e H e-l-l-U-p-F-E-L-T"
Suh...as Orson Swindle Says...
I am SO glad Nebraksa talked him out of transfering to Oregon State
Their D would have been awesome then.
He’s Ngata but probably better.

I’m watching the FCS semi final game and noticed they have the NCAA logo on the field. Has anyone ever seen that at the FBS/1A level? I know it’s the only thing you ever see during March Madness. You’d think would see in a BCS game or something. I just find it odd.

With the Heisman Trophy I am very worried...
I think that many of the voters want to vote for a “different” type of candidate (Gerhart/Suh), But I think that they will split votes allowing Ingram to win.

He played his best in many of OSU’s biggest games, scoring twice against USC and Arizona and four times against Stanford.
So a loss to four-loss USC is a bigger game than a subpar performance with the Pac-10 title on the line? Those big games he’s talking about, the Beavers were 1-2 in those games. That’s really poor evidence to Jacquizz’s value. OSU went 7-2 when Quizz wasn’t at his best. Why even play him?
My problem with the Quizz for Heisman push is that yes, he gets a lot of touches. But he really isn’t that spectacular. His YPC is pedestrian, 65th in the nation and 9th in the Pac-10. There is a lot to be said about the lack of fumbles, which is what impresses me the most about Quizz. But I’d rather have LMJ, Jahvid Best, Toby Gerhart, and maybe even Shane Vereen before Jacquizz.

How about this for a fix:
They gather 200 Sportswriters in a room. Make it incredibly hot, so they seem uncomfortable. Show the highlights, and maybe all of the candidates talking to each other. Then, the camera shows the 200 sportswriters, who then make their votes. This way, when some homer votes like an idiot, then everyone knows. If their is a tie, everyone votes between the two who tied. Not only is this a bit more exciting, but it also gets rid of voting before the season.

I wonder why OJ Simpson didn’t make it to New York.
Think he casts his ballot still?

And so, just like all the white kids who don't get picked for basketball,
Gerhart loses.

emotional
he had to know he was going to win, why is he emotional?
Yeah, production on the field does not mean anything.
But media coverage apparently is the platform in which the Heisman is awarded

The biggest bullshit of it?
The people who were allowed to vote for Spiller and Kellen Moore, who might have voted for Gerhart. Damnit.

I support inroywetrust in his support of The VD Special in his support of me supporting Roger Kieschnick in his quest to becoming the best Kieschnick ever to play professional baseball.
I've liked the 30 for 30's so far.
Hopefully Miami doesn’t ruin this for me.

This was a total embarrassment
Two outstanding candidates in Suh and Gerhart, and someone who pales in comparision to both won.

It was likely because the McCoy/Suh/Gerhart contingent split a lot of votes.
I don’t have huge issues with Ingram getting the award, he was the best player on the best team, whatever.
What is the big joke is that Suh ended up 4th, by a significant margin.
