Kyler Murray played as Freshman, but not sure if he play against us


I think he played in '15 against us for a few plays.

Another maybe so would be Johnny Rodgers from Nebraska. Won the Heisman in '72. We played them in the '70 Orange Bowl.

John Cappalletti, Penn State running back. Played them in a bowl game after he won the trophy and made him look like a crippled man in a track meet. Totally emasculated him.


That was the 1974 Orange Bowl and Penn State won 16-9. However, I have a license plate that says LSU won that game.

Not Heisman winners but Mahomes and Roethlisberger ain't bad.


If we want to talk about Heisman near misses, the Tigers kept Joe Theismann in check in 1970.
