Last year, AJ McCarron was pigeon-holed as a game manager and never really got the Heisman attention he deserved. It seems that the Heisman voters prefer a game changer to a game manager.

Last week, Bo Wallace began to receive some Heisman hype. But Bo Wallace, like AJ McCarron, just consistently manages the offense well and doesn't make the type of mistakes that lose ball games, particularly in rivalry games. For the last two weeks, he's even completed almost 50% of his passes against two of the toughest teams in the SEC.

Will Bo Wallace continue to get the Heisman attention
he deserves, or will he be pigeon-holed as a game manager?

Who in the hell was giving Wallace serious Heisman attention? I've only seen State fans say that.

Nice troll.

McCarron is wayyyyyy better than Wallace.

And McCarron didn't really deserve Heisman consideration.

Bo Wallace isn't even in the same universe as AJ McCarron. He doesn't even share the same title. McCarron wasn't a game manager. He consistently had the offense running and delivered in the clutch and biggest games (minus 1-2). Bo Wallace is one of the shittiest QBs I've seen since Jevan Snead and he is just a total douche.

Ole Miss needed to go 12-0 for him to get serious consideration. He looked like a Heisman candidate right after the TAMU game.

But yeah, that ship has sailed. Even if Ole Miss wins out he has almost no shot.

If Adam Griffith's kick goes 5 more yards against Auburn, AJ probably wins the Heisman. (Not saying he would've deserved it and that assumes UA beats Mizzou)

Ok, first of all, you do realize he finished SECOND in the Heisman last year, right? How is that not getting Heisman attention? Second of all, not sure he ever really "deserved" Heisman attention (not meant as a knock on him).
