there are a bunch of defensive players better than Te'o. The fact that he has all this Heisman hype is a complete joke occurring because he plays for Notre Dame.

agreed
Look he IS a good player who had a very good season
but let's be realistic here....If TM7 had the season he had last year vs this crop of Heisman hopefuls TM7 blows those three away
granted that is MHO and Im a tiger fan butI do believe that

For 2012. Te'o Not in top 100 in solo tackles, Tackles for loss, sacks or forced fumbles. T-73rd in fumble recovery. T-59th in total tackles. T-3rd in interceptions. Yet he's the POY and defensive POY.
And Minter doesn't? Minter prob played with the best defensive line in the nation. People trying to discredit Teo, who do you think should have won those awards that Teo won? He is the main reason (outside of Pitt's kicker) that ND is still undefeated. So, the best player on the best defense doesn't deserve the awards? If this is true then Dorsey and Suh didn't deserve their hype either.
