I see the quest for the Heisman as a two-man race between Graham Harrell of Texas Tech and Colt McCoy of Texas.
Why not Sam Bradford of Oklahoma? Because, all things being equal, he’s a sophomore and a sophomore can’t win the Heisman. I know, Tebow won it last year as a soph, but Tebow also [...]

There was a Heisman earthquake this past weekend, as Mark Sanchez, Tim Tebow and Matt Stafford were dealt potentially fatal blows to their candidacies (though I never thought Tebow could win anyway). However, there’s still a chance for a Heisman ‘re-set’, which I will get into later.
In the meantime, the following is a [...]

It’s time for this week’s HP Heisman Watch. The following list is of the players who have the best shot at actually winning the Heisman. It is NOT a predicted order of the final voting. Therefore, some players not on this list will assuredly get their share of votes.
