Worst MNC team: 2006 Florida or 2007 LSU
I actually think 2006 Florida was the worst team but 2007 LSU had two losses in a really weak year for college football.
Worst Heisman Trophy Winner: Mark Ingram or Troy Smith
To this day, I don't understand how Troy Smith won the Heisman Trophy by such an overwhelming margin. His numbers in 2006 were very similar to the stats A.J. McCarron put up last year.
Troy Smith: 203-311, 65.3 Comp%, 2542 yards, 30 TDs, 6 INTs, 62 rushes, 228 yards, 1 TD
A.J. McCarron: 211-314, 67.2 Comp%, 2933 yards, 30 TDs, 3 INTs, 49 rushes, 174 yards, 1 TDs
McCarron actually put up better passing numbers across the board. But everybody downplays his Heisman chances while Troy Smith managed to win the Heisman in 2006 by a record margin. McFadden should have won the Heisman that year.

JaMarcus was the best QB in college football that year.

It's weird b/c I think Troy Smith was actually a superior college player to Mark Ingram, but was less deserving based on the other candidates that year, vs. Ingram's year.
Ingram basically benefitted from a shitty year of candidates (except for Suh, i can't quite remember if that was Suh's big year, but frick Suh anyway).
Troy was a bit better, but it was a more egregious error that he won.

How are you determining what weak year is in college football?

I appreciate your post, but as an interesting note. Many LSU fans would say 2006 team better than 2007 team and UF beat
that team. Teams catch breaks, don't catch breaks, etc

Mark Ingram at least showed out against the #1 rushing defense in the land in the national title game. Troy Smith did not. He sucked it up on the biggest stage and his numbers were inferior to 2012 AJ McCarron - a player who wasn't even invited to New York.

2002 Ohio State was pretty bad.

When Kansas wins a BCS bowl game and Hawaii plays in the Sugar Bowl, it's a weak year for college football.

They were unanimous number 1 Smith lit up Michigan who was #2 last week of season it wasn't a bad choice at time.

Don't forget Smith's line against UF in the MNC:
4-14, 35 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT
4-14, 35 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT

2009 Bama and 2009 Mark Ingram

To be fair, 2007 was a really weak year for college football, but a really strong year for the SEC, IMO.
So I wouldn't say it takes anything away from LSU that year.

2010 Auburn - Troy Smith

I completely and utterly did not mean to have a no message OP
My thoughts were a tie on 2007 LSU and 2002 OSU
Ingram and Troy Smith. I hate to say that on Smith because he had a great year and then just crapped the bed in the MNC gamem

Had a dog fight against a backup QB from the Big12.

His numbers in 2006 were inferior to AJ McCarron's in 2012. McCarron wasn't even invited to New York.
