Yeah, its kind of unfair to look down on Robert this year. Hes still very good, its just that Lee is better...flat out. Thats not his fault haha.

If Manziel has a big game against LSU he deserves to be in the conversation RS Freshman or not

No traditional WR will win the Heisman anytime soon. For a "WR" to win it, it would have to be someone like Percy Harvin.

I think the fact that Lee is quite a bit better should show that Robert Woods is not a top 10 WR. He's a first rounder (top 25, maybe top 40), but not the kind of guy GMs want in the top 10.

We (A&M) are seriously flawed as a team.
LSU is going to show us what a top tier team looks like.

That was such a farce. I'm still salty Fitzy didn't win it. He had a touchdown catch 18 straight games.

All props go to Brent - pretty sure he was the first person to really talk about Manziel - i just love watching the guy - in terms of excitement he is a much more dynamic player than Geno Smith

Completely agreed. If Manziel can keep winning games in the SEC, especially against the likes of LSU he absolutely has to be considered a candidate.

Not even the best defensive player on his team or the best linebacker in the country, but sure, I guess.

Troy Smith shouldn't have won? Why not? And why not for Leinart?

Eric Crouch had no business winning it in 2001, he and Jason White are probably the least deserving winners since Gino Toretta, who is easily the most undeserving winner of all-time.

Throw Mark Ingram on that list.

I cannot believe he is the only player from Alabama to ever win the Heisman. Who was more deserving in 2009?

Gerhart was a better running back.

Let's not pretend the TT loss takes Geno's hands off of it, but another L will.

Suh was the most deserving that year. Most dominating year by a defensive player you can ask for.

Suh was a beast...Gerhart was better than Ingram considering they played the same position, SEC bias had a role in the 2009 Heisman vote for sure.

Suh was never going to win after Nebraska blew it vs Texas, even though he was downright dominant in that game.

I want Geno to lose for financial reasons, but he could lose three games and his stats will still give him the award.
If he has 40ish TDs and less than 3 interceptions... I mean come on.
And that's exactly what he's going to have.
If has ZERO picks? It's over.
This is a case in which the stats are just too historic.
