Henry's 2/5 odds of winning the stiffarm trophy give him an implied probability of 71 percent to become the second Alabama player to bring this particular piece of hardware back to Tuscaloosa. If you're trying to construct a scenario in which someone other than Henry wins, it likely involves the Crimson Tide losing Auburn and missing out on the SEC Championship game thanks to an Ole Miss win over Mississippi State, plus a pair of strong performances from Watson against Carolinas South and North. The latter seems far more likely to happen than the former, and that probably won't be enough on its own.

I think he still needs to close out the regular season with two very strong performances, which he can, of course, easily do.
I was leaning towards Ezekiel Knight until last week when he blew it in more ways than one.

He continues to play well while everyone else struggles. The QB from Oklahoma has too much ground to make up this late in the season.

Good for him - hope he wins it.

If he is the winner and we win the NC, I think we'll have to erect a gold statue to Saban for all that has been accomplished here under his watch.

So last the running back to win was Ingram. Why not make that 2 Alabama running backs to win. They sure have loved QBs since 2009.
