So sick of hearing how fornette got snubbed, who do you think shouldn't be there?
You do realize the Heisman committee could've invited more than three guys, right?

You do realize they only invite more than when it's a close vote, right? Buga may not have even finished 4th or 5th for that matter in the national voting

This is one of the most misunderstood parts of the Heisman process. You will often hear media or fans complain that a certain player was snubbed by not being invited to the Heisman ceremony. But the finalists are not determined arbitrarily. Starting from the understanding that there will always be a minimum of three finalists, whether or not more will be invited is determined by how close the fourth-place finisher's point total is to that of the third place finisher's, how close the fifth-place finisher's is to that of the fourth-place finisher's and so on

In other words, the closeness of the point totals determines the final number of finalists. Where major gaps exist, that's where you get a cutoff
