Reason #99 why the Heisman is a joke
Posted on 12/3/11 at 10:56 am

A few of the Heisman prediction rankings have Matt Barkely at #4. That guy was completely off of the radar, and then his team won one game against a good team, Oregon, and now he might get a Heisman invite to NYC. I realize that Barkely has had a good year, but how can you go from being off of the radar, to a top finalist with one good game? Don't get me started on the whole "must be a qb or rb" topic.

Barkley has better numbers than Luck. Fact

Griffin was off the radar until he beat the Sooners.
Montee Ball is still off the radar for some strange reason.

It shouldn't be about being on the radar in the beginning but a compilation of your work. Good for the Heisman - Barkley deserves it.

So preseason hype and buzz is more important to you to make the award legit?

Don't know who said it, but basically said that Luck raises the level of his team, as does RGIII, so both are ahead of Barkely.
So, Luck, RGIII, Richardson, Wilson, Blackmon, and Ball should be in NY before Barkely.

Your #99 reason completely contradicts your #1. you know this, right? I say good for the voters for allowing someone with the preseason hype back in the conversation. I really don't understand your beef here.

probably a bigger joke that he was "off the radar" to begin with...dude is definitely one of the best players in CFB
Suh winning the Heisman a few years ago would have done wonders for the award

ZOMG the heisman is terrible because a good player might finish 4th in the voting! SHAME!

one great game?
He had two games with 6 TD's. one with 5, two with four.
Let's look at his body of work.
308 of 446
3528 yards
294 ypg
69.1%
39 TD's
7 INTS
That is not what I would call a "good" season with "one" great game.

Tyran Mathieu says hello. I don't care that he was suspended for one game. He's the best playmaker in college football this year, and that's saying a lot since he plays defense.
