It doesn't win you a Heisman but it's an insane amount if INTs for a Lb

Search and see his many BCS LBs have hit this total the last 20 years

Ban bet says I can find a FBS LB who had at least 6 interceptions in the last 5 years.

Ban bet? I'm not that worried about it. You should look anyway.

And I said BCS schools. Not FBS. Weird shite can happen in those smaller schools

Shhh. I want him to take the bet. We all know this is an extremely rare occurrence that no linebacker ever does. Lester Earl would be a fool not to take this easy bet.

What has Teo done to even be worthy of discussion besides be on the defense of the #1 team. Honey Badger was a better candidate than he is.m

3 LBS in BCS conferences have had 6 INTS in the last 9 years. Teo is the 4th and he has 2 games left

yep, happens so often.

Tyrann had no real business in the Heisman race either, but at least he contributed on both defense AND special teams. Te'o is only playing on defense.

It's a much weaker season for Heisman candidates this year compared to last year. All five of last year's Heisman finalists (Mathieu, Richardson, Luck, Griffin, Ball) would have won the Heisman if they were candidates this year.

True. Doesn't change the fact that Te'o neither deserves nor will win the Heisman.

how am i throwing a bitch fit?

i said find how many LBS in BCS schools have had 6+ INTs.

You then claim a bunch of FCS guys have done it, whom i dont really care about.

im talking about guys on teams that can actually win a national title or a Heisman.

somehow you people are trying to dwindle what has been a great season by Teo. He's 2nd in the whole nation in INTS. I mean come on!

Beating Bama (big name teams) is what voters love...if Texas A&M doesn't beat Bama he's not the front-runner.

Similarly, if Klein goes crazy against Texas or Manti does something extraordinary against USC...they are in the thick of it.

I think Lee is out of it. Barner will get some votes.

But it's J Football, Manti and Klein.
