The latest Scripps Howard Heisman poll is out and Ohio State’s Troy Smith maintained his lead over Adrian Peterson.
The SHNS poll is a good gauge of the working college football media’s thinking on the Heisman. There are 10 voters, two from each region and they vote for five players each week.
Here is this week’s poll, with first-place votes in parentheses:
1. Troy Smith, QB, Ohio State, 46 (7).
2. Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma, 37 (2).
3. Chris Leak, QB, Florida, 23.
4. Steve Slaton, RB, West Virginia, 17 (1).
5. Garrett Wolfe, RB, Northern Illinois, 11.
Others: Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame 7; Kenny Irons, RB, Auburn, 5; Ted Ginn Jr., WR, Ohio State 2; Kevin Kolb, QB, Houston, 1; Mario Manningham, WR, Michigan 1.
The voters: Kirk Bohls (Austin (Texas) American-Statesman); Scott Cain (Arkansas Democrat Gazette); Dennis Dodd (CBSSportsLine); Vahe Gregorian (St. Louis Post-Dispatch); Mike Griffith (Knoxville (Tenn.) News Sentinel); Randy Holtz (Rocky Mountain News); John Lindsay (Scripps Howard News Service); Michael Lewis (The Salt Lake Tribune); John Rohde (The Oklahoman); Michael Vega (The Boston Globe).
