#2 is a good number for SEC Heisman trophy winners.
Cam Newton
Johnny Manziel
Derick Henry
And Mark Ingram was a double 2.

So close, and yet, so far away

2. LSU Tigers (13-1)
2 OF 25
Loss vs. Alabama, 0-21 in BCS National Championship Game—Down 1
The LSU Tigers’ season is reminiscent of that of the 2007 New England Patriots.
The Tigers were dominant through a perfect regular season, but in a rematch against the team that gave them the most trouble in the regular season, which in LSU’s case was Alabama, they came up with a dud of a game and lost the game that mattered most.
It should not be forgotten that LSU still had a tremendous season. It won games against the No. 1, No. 4, No. 6, No. 14 and No. 20 teams in these final rankings, and aside from the two games against Alabama, the Tigers otherwise gave every other team no chance to stay in the game for four quarters.
The LSU Tigers had a tremendous regular season, which could have given them an argument for the top spot in a close BCS National Championship Game loss, but the shutout dropped them definitively to the second spot.
That said, they are still a big step ahead of the next team in the rankings, given their tremendous body of work from this season that no other team could match.
21-0 was just the beginning!
