Paul Finebaum Names Best Player To Not Win Heisman Trophy

by Larry Leo

May 10, 202236 Comments

On Monday's edition of The Paul Finebaum Show (h/t Brad Crawford of 247Sports), he was asked to name the best college football QB (besides Peyton Manning) to never win the Heisman. Great question. His response...

quote:
"Dan Marino is one we'll throw on that list," Finebaum said. "I'll come up with a couple more here — Stetson Bennett, Colt McCoy ... John Elway was good. Joe Namath wasn't bad, back in the day. Vince Young ... he should've won the Heisman."

"I've got the perfect answer for you, because I still regret not voting for this guy, but — Deshaun Watson."

Adrian Peterson not winning the heisman his freshman year was an absolute robbery. Guy averaged like 200 yards a game that season.

No, whichever QB won that game was getting the Heisman. Kosar still finished in the top 3 or 4

Actually, when BC and Miami met in 84 the votes were all in at that point. 84 was Fluties to lose from day one with Kosar being close but Miami fell to 8-5 in 84. The day after thanksgiving in 84 was still in the top 5 of games I've ever seen. That damn Flutie would not die.
