The 2006 Heisman robbery is perhaps greater than 2007...at least had decent competition that year with Tebow... Al be it, on a loaded roster Florida Tema that greatly under achieved that year.
But losing to fricking Troy Smith was abhorrent.
Smith checked all the old antiquated Heisman boxes, upper class QB on the first place team, but the actual star power was just not there.
I remember all the "experts" saying, "well, McFadden is probably the best player in the country, but Troy Smith deserves the hesiman because the award doesn't go to lower classman."
Very next year, Tebow, a true sophomore, wins the award.
Ask any LSU fan who put more fear into them.
The athletes Nutt fell into are somewhat staggering. Not only did he have maybe the best backfield ever with Dmac, Hillis, and Jones, right before that he had one of the biggest athletic freaks of all time in Matt Jones.
I'll go to my grave saying McFadden was robbed of a Heisman and was, at worst, the third best RB in SEC history, only behind Bo and Herschel.
Btw, Dmac also played about half the season in 2006 with half a big toe. He basically kicked it off of his foot right before the season in a night club brawl.

Fact. McFadden had a better passer rating than Troy Smith that year.

The 06 Hogs team was so stacked. Unbelievable that Nutt managed to lose 4 games with that roster. It’s the only legit national championship contending caliber Arkansas team I can remember. The LSU and Florida games to finish the season were both epic. LSU just got the best of us. Holliday’s kick return won that game. Huge play. The Hogs absolutely should have beaten Florida in Atlanta but just choked.
