Suh is putting up crazy numbers. And the numbers don't count how many plays he has made where it forced other team mates to make the takle. Seriously look at this guy and then look at passed DT's or current ones. What he is doing right now boggels the mind. DT are not supposed to be able to do these kind of things.

His numbers are eye-popping compared to Tebow's or any of the 4 other qb's ahead of him. Poll is pretty biased if you ask me!!

Wow, that never occurred to me. I think Tebow is a great college player. He's the leader of arguably the best team in the country. That doesn't mean he's the best player in the country, or the player who's having the best statistical year, or even the most indispensable player in the country. He's Derek Jeter (and I'm a Yankee fan). He's a great player who brings more intangibles to a game than statistical dominance. The year he won the Heisman he had the statistics to back it up. So far this year he doesn't. If other players have statistically more dominant years for top teams then I don't think Tebow should win with lesser numbers because of his "intangibles".

He currently has 580 yards on 47 catches (12.4 ypc) and 2 punt returns for touchdowns with two more that were called back. I am a huge Colt McCoy and Texas fan, so it hurts a little when I say that J-Ship has been the best player on the Texas Longhorns and therefore should be in the Heisman race. Jordan Shipley.

I thought this was supposed to be based on performance, not celebrity or reputation. This season Tebow has been steady but not spectacular. 13 points against LSU? 23 points against UT? Please base your votes on this season to date, not what happened last year or the year before or what you think might happen the rest of the way. Tebow, really?
