LOL uh alright

Desmond Ridder is undefeated herp derp!


Cool. But comparing Stroud and Fields is dumb. Fields was far superior that year than Stroud is this year.

Is 2019 the new 1980?

And besides, Will Anderson Jr. is better than all of the aforementioned players - save perhaps Joe Borrow - and he wasn't even a finalist.


I was with you until this. This is a bit much.

They 83% vote total for BY proved he was far and away the only deserving candidate.


He was the weakest of the four candidates, and not even the most deserving player on his own, also underwhelming team. It kind of feels like the Heisman voters put very little thought into who they were voting for.

It has been decades since people cared about the Heisman. Tell me the last 10 winners without looking it up.



Not necessarily in this order...BY, Devonta, Henry, Burrow, Mayfield, Murray, Mariota, Winston, RG3...how am doing so far?

You're correct---would have beefed it up
immensely with the other most Heisman worthy
over Hutchinson, Will Anderson.
Two from the same team and & Bama fatigue would
not allow.

Stroud is actually a Redshirt Freshman. But he still had a great year.

I actually disagree with this and it’s getting away from the point I was trying to make in the op. BY was deserving in THIS class…but the class as a whole was a really weak class and no one gave a shite about the heisman this year.

Young 100% deserves it, but the group did suck

Compare to Joe Burrow’s class: Chase Young, Justin Fields, Jalen Hurts. All freaking studs.



what a joke. I won't even opine on the others but I'm an Alabama fan so I have an informed opinion about Jalen Hurts and Bryce Young is way better than Jalen.

We are going to try to go on with our lives just the same, really.

If you feel that way just slap another "*" on it, and get the hell on down the road.

It's a bit much to say that Will Anderson is a better Heisman candidate than Jalen Hurts, Justin Fields, Chase Young, C.J. Stroud, Aidan Hutchinson, Kenny Pickett, and Bryce Young?
