He lost because the rest of the country has SEC fatigue. It was apparent in CFP playoff committee selection, and continued into Heisman voting. Without it, UGA is in the playoffs, and Murray is playing a team like FL or LSU in a NY6 Bowl

That would have been a much better match up

Exactly. Instead we get an Oklahoma team that should be disqualified getting to play a game they did not earn. Oklahoma doesn't even put players on the field on the defensive side and that, in itself, should rule them out.

That is against football rules.

Honestly it makes sense. First Manti Te'o was denied and now Tua. It's almost like this social club of black and white athletes is purposefully conspiring to keep API candidates out.

It definitely warrants more investigation and in lite of the revelations of Kyler Murray's rampant homophobia and hate speech the whole 2018 award should be revisited and Tua should at least be made a co-awardee.

Wasn't Te'o denied the Heisman because everyone realized he was insane for pretending to have a girlfriend when he really didn't?

That's still the weirdest sports story of all time IMO.

No. It was racism. Catfishing or fa'ama'i is a part of Samoan culture.

He went out with injury at least a dozen times this year.

Hell, sometimes he wasn't even the QB Saban wanted in the game. The idea he was gonna win the Heisman was lunacy.

I suppose you would also laugh at soldiers who are wounded and save their brothers from death while barely alive themselves being awarded the Medal of Honor.

Well, it's not funny; it's heroic. Shame on you, shame.

Is this an elaborate troll? I feel like every comment you've made in this thread has to be a troll. Like every. fricking. one.

This is dumb. Mariota won the Heisman in 2014 and he is also Hawaiian.

This has no correlation to politics. This is about football.

If it was about politics, Bama and OU would both be like Republicans because most are narrow minded, racist, gun toting, belligerent, ignorant, uninformed Trump sycophants.

Because bigotry has been a benefit of black Americans for generations.

Tua played for a team most of the country is tired of that has a good defense while OU has given up more points in November than Bama did all year last year.

Kyler had to keep scoring to survive. Tua was out at the half.
