He had 7.5 sacks in the first 12 games of the season, how is that even close to "dominant"? It's too bad the Heisman voters appear to be just about as ignorant as most of you people. Ingram will probably win it because ESPN is in love with him (ignore that he didn't do anything in two separate games [Auburn, Arkansas]). Why is Suh getting so much credit?

No one can see that Suh is doing unprecedented things at the defensive tackle spot and is so clearly the best player in the country just because he doesn't play a sexy position. Ingram is a good player, but if Trent Richardson is starting does he do any worse? Stack Ingram's numbers up against past winners and non-winners at RB, then stack Suh's numbers up against every defensive tackle to play the game the the past 25 years. Suh is a once-in-a-generation player. Is Ingram? I'm inclined to say no. Not yet, at least. And Rolando McClain is clearly the best player on the Bama roster, and should be getting more Heisman pub himself if the award is truly for the most outstanding players in college football.

Ingram has 50 something less carries than Toby Gerhart at 6.0 YPC he would have almost 1900 Rushing yards and 300 REC YPG . Suh got a DUI when he hit a parked car in Lincoln this year... Bad Suh!

"Behind that line"? "That line" was supposed to be our weakest link coming in to this season so don't give me that bullshart.

Ingram plays against the toughest defenses in football. Suh and Gerhart are great but not as good as Ingram. The trophy is formed after a running back, not a D-Linesman. Ingram can't be considered for awards that Suh can be. "Mark" my word.. Ingram wins it! Ingram should win it. Ingram plays against the toughest defenses in football.

Moreover, without Ingram, Alabama beat Auburn; without Jones, Auburn beats Alabama. Without doubt, the most valuable player to his team is McCoy. Texas does not go undefeated without him.

Ingram was probably the least valuable to his team – take him off the team, and they are probably still undefeated. Many running backs would have had great numbers behind that line.
