i have never heard of the guys i didn't get. my cousin & i used to watch the show every yr when we were kids & take turns going back as many yrs as possible. now i barely care about it. 

good for indiana though. funny that they were able to buy a football team in this era & their hoops are still a mess.

pavia is really showing his ass at this point. he's gone from being an underdog it was fun to root for to an insufferable douche.

My Heisman knowledge is pretty shaky. Gonna be more "it's gotta be" guesses than confident picks.

Iowa - Nile Kinnick
BYU - Ty Detmer
BC - Doug Flutie
Baylor - RG3
Louisville - Lamar Jackson
Okie St - Barry Sanders
SMU - Eric Dickerson
Stanford - Christian McCaffery
Houston - Andre Ware
Pitt - Tony Dorsett
TCU - Ladanian Tomlinson
Oregon - Marcus Mariota

sure seemed like he earned it at the Rose Bowl, but Hypesman awarded before the bowls

At the 2016 Rose Bowl, Stanford's Christian McCaffrey delivered a legendary performance, setting a new Rose Bowl record for all-purpose yards , scoring touchdowns on a 75-yard catch and a 66-yard punt return, and capping his historic season as Heisman runner-up.

Yeah, there's a reason I didn't even attempt to play this game... I didn't follow any CFB before about 1996, so I had a feeling there were a whole lot of past winners I'd barely even heard of, if I'd heard of them at all. 

I'm pretty sure I've heard of Jim Plunkett. Wouldn't for the life of me had been able to tell you he'd won a Heisman, or what school he played for, or what decade he played in, or what he went on to do in the NFL, if anything... If I have heard of him, it probably means he played in the NFL at some point though.

^^^that's the capstone quote but he's got a catalog of obnoxious bloviating about his greatness at this point.

idk how tx or ala beat them listening to him. frankly we would have as well were our offense not offensive.
