Just a completely subjective list of course, but looks pretty good to me overall.

Hard to rank them.

They were almost all in different eras with different exposure and with different reasons for their fame.

They all have good stories behind their Heisman winning seasons.

Tebow should be higher than Manziel. Timmy won 2 national titles.

You have to put Manziel above Newton and Tebow.

Only 5 quarterbacks have thrown for 3,000+ and run for 1,000+ in the same season ever.

Only 4 quarterbacks have thrown for 20 TDs and run for 20 TDs in the same season.

Only 1 quarterback has ever accomplished BOTH of those feats in the same season.

They should drop Rogers - he never played in the SEC.

Tebow would've won the Heisman in 2008 if it weren't for the Big 12 voters teaming up.

Both Colt McCoy and Sam Bradford had better statistical seasons in 2008 than Tebow did. Bradford was even hurt during the Texas game.
