Well no shite. Baw would have won it last year if that fricking wide out had lined up right.

How does Notre Dame have two QBs?

No Bama boys in the mix? Oh no...they'll be screaming Bama is hated by the odds makers. LOL.

Look down.

I hope the rest of NASA has better reading comprehension skills than you do.

McCaffrey is probably the best player in the country. I see him as the favorite this year.

LSU Patrick•105 months

Nope

"LF was the best player last year. Just wasn't on the best team.". Sorry, Derrick Henry was the best player last year. He proved it time and time again against the best teams in the biggest games. LF did not.

LSU Patrick•105 months

Nope

RightWingTiger•105 months

I really think that McCaffery deserved the Heisman last year, Henry was great and stepped up down the stretch but the all around excellence that McCaffery displayed was amazing. That being said if LF had ended the season the way he started (multiple 200+ yd games and the highlight runs against AU, UF, Syracuse etc) then I think he would have won it hands down.

CaliTigerHB•105 months

Derek Henry got the ball 25-35 times a game, running behind a good O-line, playing in a favorable system on and playing for Alabama. That's why he won the headman. Do you really think he would put up the same numbers on a mediocre team? No. LF probably could

I'm confused, doesn't LF play for LSU, not Bama?

LSU Patrick•105 months

The best player in college football SHOULD be the Heisman frontrunner. That is LF7.

JuiceTerry•105 months

You spelled DeShaun Watson wrong.

pellietigersaint•105 months

screw the Heisman, its completely lost its luster over the years that said, I hope LF7 wins that B

"The Heisman Memorial Trophy Award, is awarded annually to the most outstanding player in college football in the United States whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity." If that's not LF in a nutshell, I don't know what is.

UsingUpAllTheLetters•105 months

It has to be him this year. I don't see Watson or Mccaffrey being able to duplicate this time around.

IDGAF•105 months

LF was the best player last year. Just wasn't on the best team.

Hugo Stiglitz•105 months

Brandon Harris is my dark horse.

drizztiger•105 months

Heisman is a joke, whichever team goes the furthest will have the front-runner. Instead of the best player in college football, it's either the star player on a late contender or a pinball stats player. They don't even follow their own motto "The Heisman Memorial Trophy Award, is awarded annually to the most outstanding player in college football in the United States whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity."

Covingtontiger77•105 months

LF7 needs some big games on prime time....Wisconsin to start the season off at Lambeau and he definitely needs a better showing against Bama. He does what he did last year and puts up 125+ against Bama the trophy is his. Otherwise not so much.

beauchristopher•105 months

I'd love to have a heisman but I wonder if that would mean we didn't progress elsewhere. Well the last heisman winning rb won the championship so there's that.

Jon Ham•105 months

Betting wise I like McCaffrey at 5/1

Jon Ham•105 months

*11/2... Even better.

Solo Cam•105 months

LF is a monster. Man I wish we could keep him for a longer time.

Mouche337•105 months

He was robbed last year. Hope Les Miles unleashes him this year and leaves no room for debate.

LSU-MNCBABY•105 months

How was he robbed last year?

UGATiger26•105 months

He wasn't robbed the Heisman itself, but he was definitely robbed a spot in NYC.
