Those stats do a pretty good job of convincing me to pick Manning.

I know I'm biased, but Manning didn't deserve the Heisman after his performance against South Carolina. We were pretty damn bad that year (I remember not making a bowl) and he was like 8/27 - 115 yards - 1 interception - 0 touchdowns.
Tennessee fans like to forget about that game and sweep it under the rug.

I also think Manning's career would've been a factor. But I also think that hurt him because there was a little bit of fatigue out there over hearing about him for 3 years.
