Exactly, he was the THE workhorse for Stanford. He carried the ball less than 20 times only once all season (17 times still). He carried the rock at least 27 times in 8 separate games last year. Ingram carried it less than 20 times 7 times last year.

Ingram had the luxury of a great backup taking the load off of him. Ingram wasn't near the only reason Bama won last year, while Gerhart for Stanford clearly was their reason why they won mostly when they did. He grinded games out by himself. 4 of the 5 games Stanford lost they put up at least 27 points but allowed >31 points. Nobody scored more than 31 on Bama last year. In fact nobody scored more than 24 on Bama last year.


None of this proves that TG was better. It just means that he ran the ball more.

Bama fans are just being ignorant to the fact Ingram played for you guys


No, you are just being a hater.

It means he did more and carried the load for his team. Which is what SHOULD matter for the heisman, not who is the best player on the best team. Like it almost always is these days.

No, like I said, you guys are just being ignorant to that fact. Once again, switch Ingram and Gerhart and Gerhart wins the heisman easily. It has just as much about what team you play for these days as much as how good a player you are.
