None of the other Heisman winners got passes because the rest of their team sucked. Is this the new LSU rule for awards like Bama's losses don't count when it comes to making the playoffs?

Yes, it was a new rule. The rule for Auburn is they will make the playoff when they can lose less than 4 games in a season.
