Johnny Manziel for Heisman!!
Johnny Manziel for Heisman!!
The best player is that LB from ND and it isn't really even close. Second best player is Tavon Austin. I don't even know who this Maziel dude even is.
Well, don't ya think you should "find out who he is" before saying the race isn't even a close call??? Might surprise you...especially for a frosh.

If you haven't heard of him you will. If you haven't seen him play then you have missed out on some unbelievable stuff. As a college football fan, and if you are, you would appreciate what Johnnyfootball has done this year. But if you will only remain as a wvu fan then it's what it is.
JF broke 40 year old Archie Mannings SEc record then broke his new record again soon after,as a.frosh.
He also broke Cam Newtons record which took.14 games in.12 games. And Tebows also.
And he's 19.
Baylor lost some yet RGIII still won.
Dude isn't even an all-American. (Though the thought of Tajh Boyd as a first team all American makes me laugh being that he effing sucks.) This Margarine guy probably plays in some overrated conference or something. Or Notre Dame.
SPEAKING OF WHICH -- congrats to whoever gets to play Notre Dame in the fake championship. What a load of horse ****. Oregon and Kansas State could beat any of the "top" teams. Yet they have no shot at the title. Kansas State played a tougher schedule than anyone, yet somehow their single loss rates them below three hilariously overrated SEC teams with a single loss. Another year, another sham. Just like Okie Light last year. That stupid quasi-legit playoff can't get here soon enough. Some day an all inclusive conference champion tourney will get here and the real champ will be named. One can hope, anyway.
And for the second year in a row, I'm not watching the fake championship because, frankly, the best team won't even be playing.
One good game as a RB and a decent stat as a WR for a 7-5 team...and a senior.
How many 500+ yards games did he have?
Oh yeah....he deserves it.
One game ever as a RB and he got 350+ yards. (and, again, this is against a top 10 team). They just threw him out there as a RB for the hell of it. And he played 60% of the snaps at WR. They literally ran 3 running plays with him. It was all him. They couldn't stop him.
Team record doesn't matter. It's not his fault Holgorsen's dumb ass fire the great defensive coaching staff at WVU to hire his drinking buddies (who he is now firing as I type...lesson learned...)
And class definitely doesn't matter. If it weren't for Slaton, Devine, and Sanders, he'd have had the road cleared in front of him to be the focus of the offense as a Freshman. It's not his fault WVU has more offensive depth than whatever team whatshisname plays for (I've already forgotten his name). That's what happens when you go and play for a superior program, unfortunately. You have to wait your turn.
And, yes, he does deserve it...because he is the best amateur football player in the United States. Name one player that can change a game like Tavon Austin. I'll save you the time, you can't. His highlight reel from ONE GAME is more impressive than anyone else's season highlight tape. AND he had to share the ball with Hines Ward clone Stedman Bailey at WR who got like 1500 yards receiving with 21 TDs and was a Bilitnikof finalist.
That's the game though. The best player never wins the Heisman. Nice talk, though.
Austin was Heisman worthy today against Syracuse! Sheesh!I saw some videos.
His running is okay, but not nearly as good as Pat White or Shoelace...though better than Tebow or Cam Newton. About as good as that Juice dude from Illinois a few years back. He has an arm I'd consider serviceable. Really don't see what the big deal is to be honest. I know the SEC homers probably think the kid is a god, but they don't know what offense is in that conference, so I shouldn't be surprised when an above average player wins the Heisman for simply being above average.
Best players were Lee from USC and Austin from WVU.
This dude will be a pro-bowler:

Tavon Austin's season highlight reel would be too long. I'll just post what he did against the best team on his schedule. It just so happened to be the greatest offensive performance in the history of modern college football, but everyone else is too ****ing stupid to realize it.

Of course you have a team that is total ass playing the champion of the most overrated conference year in year out for the fake championship. Just like every year.
I'm pretty much considering the winner of the Oregon-Kansas St game as the real fake national champion.
That playoff (which is still fraudulent being that its only 4 teams in a league of 120+ teams) can't come soon enough.
Austin was Heisman worthy today against Syracuse! Sheesh!
C'mon man.
There's no way anyone can take you seriously....
Didn't realize 1 game performance was all that was needed to win the Heisman.
Hell....give it to him then..

That was just his best game. He played well in every other game, too. But that single game was that "signature performance" these types of athletes generally need to have to win
awards.
werent there about 10 wr with more ypg and 20 wr with more ypc than austin? not sure how you can.say.hes the best football player in the nation. before you call anyone a.homer..i think.you should study a mirror.
Oh...you wanna play this common opponent game?
Bama destroyed Ole Miss. Ole Miss destroyed Pitt. ND barely beat Pitt in OT.
Bama wins!!
You can't be serious Mikey.
Yes, I'm a homer for A&M and USC. But what Manziel did this year is phenomenal.
He led the SEC in rushing. AS a freshman QB. He broke Cam Newton's mark by 700 yards in 1 less game. He set the all time FCS bowl game rushing yard record by a QB.
And the top 2 Big 12 teams (conference champions) got embarrassed by non champions of Pac12 and SEC. Heck...A&M was #5 in the SEC.
And the so called the upgrades to the Big12 (TCU and WVU) didn't fare so well...both in the bowl games and the season. Just saying.
And no...Heisman isn't strictly an individual effort. It takes a team for that special player to perform at that level. That's why a player from a 7-6 team will probably never win the trophy.
Get over your butthurt.
Yawn...
You know what would be fun?
To see a relay style football bowl game. A la 4 x 100 swimming freestyle in the olympics.
Each team plays a quarter. And you carryover the points, time-outs, etc.
What the hell kind of stupid idea is that....you on drugs?
To even the field we will put 25 lb ankle weights on Johnny football and only allow him to rush after 5 mississippis
LOL.
Saban visits Kyle field September 14!
I will be there. We will welcome him with open arms. Then punch them in the chin again.
Sweet. When's last time you went to one of their reg season games?
2010 mizzou and then 2011 spring game. Have great pics of manziel.
Just woke up and turned on the TV. Ha ha ha. Suck my ass, Domers. I hate those *******s. Glad a West Virginia boy is now the most dominant head coach in a long, long time.
Was he a pimple faced kid going through puberty?
