4 games cost cooper the heisman and they were ole miss,lsu, wcu, and mizzou, but on the flip side if he had big games in those then Blake sims would've beaten him out for the heisman. I said this after the Florida game when this came up, Blake sims would've won the heisman over cooper had it came down to cooper being a serious possibility of winning. It is a qb and rb award with few exceptions. Cooper was always at a disadvantage, and his only opening was when mariota struggled against Arizona, but that was the same weekend that we lost to ole miss. Had we won that game with coop having a 100 yard game, Blake would be in ny with coop and Blake would probably take more votes than coop votes between them and it would probably be because everyone likes a story like Blake's. Then it comes to comparing Blake and mariotta and Marcus would probably take the award anyway. I don't see anyway how cooper would've won unless he broke every sec single season record as a receiver and had some serious luck. Mariota and coop are the best players in college football but mariotta will win the award, and I have no problem with it. Now if you want to say there is injustice in awards this year then tell me why Blake or coop are not maxwell finalists. That is something to gripe about
