Heisman (quote, talent, hands)

Who get's your Heisman vote? I'd go Colt McCoy. 80% completion percentage and he did it with minimal NFL talent around him, as opposed to Bradford and Tebow. Plus he beat Bradford head to head and his 1 loss to Texas Tech is more respectable than Tebow's to Ole Miss.

Without a doubt McCoy. Texas has no running game unlike Bradford and doesnt have a top 2 WR like Florida. If anyone acturally watched Oklahoma like I did their line was amazing. During his game vs Texas Tech I counted on 10 different plays where he had 5 seconds to throw the ball. You could have put any half-decent QB into okahoma and had them put up the simuliar numbers. People talk about Texas Tech and Harrel being a System QB, Well this year Bradford was more of a system QB then Harrell. Tebow this year had no comeback victories before Alabama. If someone wanted to make a straight up stat comparison which was the reason he won it last year then Mccoy is better. More total touchdowns and almost 80% completion rating.

The worst part is Bradford has it in the bag. Most voters logic will be as follows... "Give it to the top quarterback on the top team. What? He won it last year? Okay lets give it to the quarterback on the number two team."

The only thing that might work in McCoy's favor is if everyone thinks the way you do, and gives it to McCoy because they think its unfair.

That's disappointing. I really feel like Bradford wasn't so much the 'most outstanding' as he was 'in the best situation.' Especially with Stoops running up the scores the way he does. Also, how about Tebow coming in third even though he had the most first place votes?

Not anymore...I'd give it to McCoy, he did the most with the least.

No it still is. Tebow lost at home, and with the game in his hands, was stopped on 4th and 1. McCoy led what should have been a game winning drive except the Texas D let Tech do whatever they wanted to on that last drive.
