Predict his numbers here.
If he's held under 90 yards and Bama loses, I think he's finished.
If he runs for 100+ and Bama wins, I think he remains a frontrunner.
If he runs for 150+ he becomes the odds on favorite.

i believe Ingram has over 100, but LSU still wins! No Heisman for Ingram this year!

everyone is playing for 2nd, if tebow is still in the mix by doing nothing all year except against uga charleston and troy... doesnt matter what everyone else does

He never had it to begin with. He is a RB.
The award will go to another QB this year, sad to say.
In order to get it as a RB, you need to put up some insane stats like Barry Sanders. Ingram just isn't good enough to do that.
He isn't the type of RB that can break for 80 yards every time he touchs the ball and he doesn't return kicks.
He isn't going to run for over 2,000+ or 35+ TDs. Nope, not going to happen.

I'll say 23 rushes for 123 yards.

I don't think he can win it today..nor do I think he can lose it. He can do more to lose it than win it unless he just off crazy, which I don't hink he will.
He will get 125-145yds and 2tds...

I don't think he will get his numbers today. TR and Upchurch will take too many carries away from him. Also they will have to pass coming from behind.

I really don't understand why he is in the Heisman discussion this year anyway...
* I think he will be in the discussion next year though

I'm not so sure it's Tebow's this year. His stats aren't what they've been in the past. He might get a Lifetime achievement type Heisman, but it won't be based on his stats THIS year. Same thing for Colt McCoy.
Ingram on the other hand, has torn up SEC competition. And if he gets the chance to play Florida in the SEC CG and wins, I think the award is his to lose.

Geez, I don't know. Maybe because the guy has averaged 165 yards against SEC defenses the past 4 games. Even an Auburn fan has to admit, that's pretty impressive.

Your putting stats in from Florida International, Arkansas, and North Texas- games which Alabama won by a total of 128-28.
He didn't get the yardage, because he didn't get the carries.
But his last 4 games, he's averaged 165 a game and that doesn't count the Virginia Tech game of 150 yards.

Dignan...I am not saying the guy isn't good...or even great..
I am just saying IMO that I don't think he has done enough to be in the "Heisman" talk for this season..
with him only being a Soph...I think he will have legit shot at it next year if he has a banner year

Player B has nearly the same amount of yardage as Player C and A, with 30-40 less attempts.
I'd say Player B's stats far exceed the other two.

Even though we got our arse kicked...we pretty much shut Ingram down...Richardson on the other hand ate our lunch on the one big run

It's Tebow's if he wants another one 

Posted on 11/7/09 at 8:39 am to Dignan
and to compare..against the same teams..Ben Tate rushed for:
Kentucky L 21-14 31 132 4.3 18 1
@Tennessee W 26-22 25 128 5.1 20 1
Mississippi W 33-20 25 144 5.8 53 1
Ben Tate for Heisman

Lose - Only if we can stop the run. If we do, unless he starts spelling his name TEBOW, probably not. If we cannot stop the run, the Heisman may well be determined in Atlanta.

Have you seen Keanum or Clausen? They are in the running too.
I think it will be either one of them or McCoy or Tebow.
