Crazy that Joe Montana not only never won the Heisman, he never got any serious consideration for it.

I thought Blackledge too, but he was the QB for the 1982 championship team. It's gotta be whoever was before him.


Goes to show.. not many people remember who finishes 2nd, unless the last name is Clinton or something.  :57:

He wasn't especially good in college.  Like Tom Brady.
