Well one thing's for sure:  the best player is definitely not a lineman or defender.  Obviously.
this is a really good point. kinda bs it's never gone to an OL and that it's only ever gone to one defender.

Is there a lineman or defender you'd suggest this year?

UGA TE Bowers (or a TE you'd rank ahead of him)
OSU WR Harrison Jr
UF G Torrence
ILL CB Witherspoon
NW T Skoronski
That LB on Old Dominion that has 50 more tackles than anyone else in the country
Tuipolotu from USC
Hell, give it to Will Anderson, because he deserved it last year.
.
There are ALWAYS worthy linemen and defenders EVERY YEAR for the Heisman.

Jalen Carter at UGA is really good, but was out injured much of the year.  When healthy, he's outstanding, but won't get more than a 3P vote.  I'm sure there are others, some LBs probably who should get a sniff.

I’m saying Iowa’s punter should get a serious nod. They might not have won more than 3 games this year without him.

he's not even first team Big Ten

as Afro knows, since he lead the NCAA in attempts, his average averaged out.

the Spartan had an unfair advantage - not nearly as many attempts

None of the top 10 punters in number-of-punts volume are in the top 10 of yards-per-punt average.
There is a reason.

When you're at the end of the bell curve, there's only one direction to go.

I think it's back up in the air almost totally.  I do credit the USC QB for gutting it out.

I don't think Duggan has a chance, but he should

playing in the Big 12 and especially TCU hurt his chances
