How The Vote Will Go — HP’s Prediction

I see the vote breakdown among the first four candidates being similiar to the vote breakdown when Ricky Williams won the Heisman in 1998.

1. Cameron Newton — I think Newton’s total will be in the 2,300 – 2,500 point range.

2. Andrew Luck — I think Luck barely edges out LaMichael James and gets in the high 600-to-low-700s in points.

3. LaMichael James —  James should be somewhere in the mid-600-point range.

4. Kellen Moore — Moore should be very close to Luck and James and could conceivably jump one of them, but I think he’ll score in the mid-to-high 500-point range.

5. Justin Blackmon — I see Blackmon scoring between 100 and 200 points.

6. Denard Robinson — I believe Robinson will score between 50 and 100.

7. Andy Dalton — Dalton should score around 50 points.

8. Terrelle Pryor — I think he’ll score between 25 and 50 points.

9. Tyrod Taylor — He should be score between 20 and 30 points.

10.  Colin Kaepernick — I think he’ll pick up less than 20 points.
