And if Peyton Manning hadn’t been robbed of the Heisman,


Robbed? His biggest stage that year and every year was the Florida game. Guess what, he went 0-3 versus Florida as a starting QB and had a less than stellar performance in that 97 game. Charles Woodson’s largest stage was the Ohio State game where he thrived and arguably singlehandedly won that game for Michigan.

Peyton didn't get robbed. They would've loved to hand it to him.
The issue with Woodson is that the OSU game was really his only stage. His season was great but he got lucky it was a bad year for competitors. Based purely on the season the heisman was won, Howard's year was better than Woodsons along with most others on the list. Ty Mathieu in 11 had a better season than Woodsons Heisman year. Lot of factors played into Woodson winning that Heisman. Not saying he didn't deserve it but there's a reason it hasn't happened again when better candidates have been there since.
