We have three that should've won but were robbed.
1. George Cafego -- He was a halfback which back then was pretty much a QB and RB rolled into one. He was also a star punter AND a star punt returner. Furthermore, he was a very good receiver making him a threat in as a QB, RB, Punter, Punt returner, AND Receiver! He was taken as the number one overall draft pick.
2. Johnny Majors -- A triple threat player. Majors was runner up to a Notre Dame player name Paul Hornung. ND went 2-8 that year and Hornung was the only time the Heisman had been awarded to a losing team. Hornung being award the trophy caused a lot of controversy in the CFB world (not just at UT) as people were convinced Hornung only won because he played for Notre Dame.
3. Peyton Manning -- Yet another Tennessee player taken as the number one overall draft pick who got shafted by the Heisman. The rest everyone knows.
All of this has led most of us to conclude that we could play Jesus Christ and not win the Heisman. Tennessee is simply not allowed to win it.
