| Tough times for the Ville. West Virginia just picked up a big edge on their quest for the Big East title.

I guess that might be a surprise. |

| Brohm's Heisman chances seemed to just go up a bit, I guess. Depending on the support he can get from the backup RBs, he should have some big(ger) numbers now.

I guess that might be a surprise. | At a lot of sportsbooks, Bush was a 25:1 chance to win the Heisman, which put him like 12th or 13th at best. Still, I thought he had a serious chance to win it.

You just can't say he would be a surprise finalist. |

He could put up the same numbers as Mike Hart and Darius Walker. The difference would be that both those guys would get invited to the Heisman presentation over him. |

A player at a less prestigious school should have to put up better numbers to win the Heisman than a player at a prestigious school.
