It's laughable that a downhill runner who hardly broke a tackle all year got it ahead of him.

He would have won if he played anywhere but on the west coast.

If McCaffrey played in the eastern time zone he wins going away. The media gave the award to LF7 after four games, only to give it to Henry after LF7 was shutout. The media fricked this award up.

If people knew his name before the season started would have had a bigger impact

I lost respect for the Heisman when Peyton did not win it. It's way too political of an award and does not represent the best player in college football.

call people names all you want but its a valid argument. But I think it had more to do with him being on the west coast.

The biggest is do you think him being white will impact his draft position. I think it will. When has a white skill position player other than a QB been drafted high.

Ran behind a worse OL than Henry and had to face Bama's D. Heisman voters are incapable of critical thinking and the award has been a farce for years.

His skin color was the only deciding factor I'm sure.

He definitely would have won it if he didn't play on the west coast.

Depends on the media. Stanford got no early love.
