Nice story bro. But this 2014. If Mariota stays healthy Oregon will be in a great position to make a serious run for the title.
who is your Heisman frontrunner?

- Start date
lolLooks good so far. But it needs to be tested against serious competition.
Gurley and Mariotta are the favorites at this point.
I love Cooper, but it is unlikely that he will win the Heisman. It's been 22 years since a WR won the award (Desmond Howard) and Coop isn't returning kicks in addition to his WR duties. It's all QB's with the occasional RB.

I think Mariota is the media darling at this time in the season. If Coop continues to get the exposure he has been getting and doing well against better D's, then he should be in the conversation.
Mariota barely over Gurley at this point simply because Oregon is ranked second and undefeated, while Georgia lost.
I'd have Amari up there but it's rare for a receiver to be a serious contender for some reason.

IMO, Alabama's best player since the 70s was a man named Freddie Milons.
Damn shame he was never considered for a Heisman.
ESPN is my Heisman favorite of course. Oh, you mean the player, not the company that gets the most out of the award.
Ask again after 12 games, and I'll give you a real answer. And, the Heisman winner will be the most popular player on the most popular team, as it is every year.

He made some incredible plays but I never considered Freddie to be our best player since the seventies. He was definitely very good though.
He was considered in the preseason before the 2000 season but he no showed and quit with the rest of the team. He was a great individual talent but I don't hold him in any high regard personally.
Alabama's best player since the 70's is between Shaun Alexander and Mark Ingram IMHO....both guys offensively carried their teams to Championships with Season Long MVP performances one after the other.
i'd say Kenny Hill is putting himself into a great position to win the award. Of course that could change once they hit the meat of conference play.
The Heisman Trophy is the most worthless prize to me. It is suppose to go to the most outstanding football player in the country but usually a QB or RB gets it. I put a lot more stock in all the other awards.
