Heisman precedent tends to be that it is a Lifetime Achievement Award for a good player rather than the best player that season.
Billy Cannon, for example, didn’t play nearly as well the season he won as the year previous when LSU won a title but John David Crow took home the Heisman.
Herschel Walker also got fricked on the Heisman early in his college career by not getting it while putting up record numbers. He finally got it as a Junior.
Am I saying Lawrence should have won it over Devonta? No. But the Heisman voters have a history of going with longevity over single season achievements.
