How is Burrow not a unanimous Heisman winner?

You can’t even jokingly make a case that you could choose anyone else first at this point.

You will have voters that are Ohio state fans and Oklahoma fans that vote with their heart. They have great players but Burrows numbers were just at another level.

The only person that might be somewhat reasonable is Hurts because of what he did on the ground
Burrow while perhaps not as capable of a runner has proven that when needed to he can pick up key first downs
He had good runs against AU, Bama, UF, UGA in key moments to extend drives
But you're right. It shouldn't even be close because of the level of competition and the complete dominance of everyone we played.

Jalen Hurts has essentially been Oklahoma's offense.
Fields has a better supporting cast than Hurts', however, I'd argue their competition (especially Fields) has been significantly weaker compared to LSU
Tua? Hurt. Sucks for him, and I wish him well, but Burrow has been upright the entire year.
Taylor (Wisconsin) If you've ever watched Wisconsin play, they use Taylor the way the old Houston Oilers used Earl Campbell.
Also, voters are provincial, and human.
Having said all of that, he * should * win, and I'd agree it'd be a travesty if he didn't.

It’s pretty unanimous.
Burrow in a landslide.

Other players have had great seasons too.

Has there ever been a unanimous Heisman winner ever in history?

Nope. Troy Smith had 91.63% when he won and that's the highest.

If you don't credit the competition once in a while, it diminishes the win. If I were to win it, I'd want to know that I'd good competition. So, it's OK if a few think there are other worthy players.

Dude threw a pass to himself and made a first down.
Posted on 12/8/19 at 5:40 am to Y.A. Tittle
just like peyton manning was hands down the best player?
Posted on 12/8/19 at 5:53 am to Y.A. Tittle
It’s crazy but the biggest margin went to Reggie Bush for 91% voters rating. He now isn’t even considered a winner

Manning didn't deserve shite. Couldn't win the sec east with championship caliber talent around him. Tee Martin wins it all the year after he leaves with essentially the same team.
Manning was a better pro than he was a college player.

He will be!
Posted on 12/8/19 at 6:11 am to Y.A. Tittle
He honestly may be the most lopsided winner in history

Apparently there are now fewer votes (928) than in 1968, so Burrow won't set the total points record. But this vote will be an epic landslide.

Jalen hurts was a turnover machine. You guys have to be kidding. OU was in close games down the stretch BECAUSE of turnovers by hurts. He is a rb, playing the qb position and has no chance at ever being an NFL qb. For the record, fields is much the same way.

Should win? Lmao. That's like saying the saints should beat Tulane. Ya think?

Let's see...pumping hurts, pumping tee Martin...bashing Peyton. Getting the picture.
