Only 1 of the finalists are in a BCS bowl and that team hasnt even played a top 25 team. The Prestige of the Heisman Trophy is going downhill |

Silly boy, don't you see that the initial post was a not-so-veiled downplay of Tebow if he wins it? |

Paul Hornung won it on a Notre Dame team that won 3 or 4 games.
McFadden is the best player in college football IMO regardless of Arkansas's record. | |

| Paul Hornung, while i don't really know much of what he did, should be a recognizable. His name is brought up every year when the analysts need to kill two minutes and dig up the does this guy on a crappy team deserve the heisman routine. | |

| Wasn't Paul Hornung's play on both offense and defense one of the primary justifications for giving Charles Woodson the Heisman? I seem to remember his name being invoked a lot that year.
