Tua had a horrible game before the Heisman voting

That and Murray was the difference in wins and losses for his team while the only difference Tua made is running the score up.

They will be saying the same thing about X QB next year when he's putting up video game stats in Norman next season as well. When Timmy Chang and Case Keenum were lighting up defenses earlier in the century, most Heisman voters realized that it was the system and not the player. It's a shame they have forgotten that.

I agree. It's a system in Oklahoma. They rack up yards against non defensive teams. I remember when Jason white won the Heisman and he didn't even get drafted

Fournette didn't have a bad game against Bama, the LSU OL had a bad game against the Bama front seven.

When you get down to it, the Heisman is a ridiculous trophy. It is comparing players from different parts of the country, in different conferences, etc., etc.. Football is probably the most "team" game in existence, and singling out one player out of thousands of participants will always be questioned.

That being said, I'm interested in seeing how Murray does against a top tier defense. i guarantee he would not have lit up the Georgia team that was playing last week. I don't think he'll light up Bama either, but we will get to see, one way or another.

Fournette’s terrible game was about 10x worse than Tua’s bad game due to injury.

Nope. I was wrong. It was about a 100x worse.

Incorrect. He had a bad first half and was killing UGA in the second half before he got hurt.
