Heisman Watch (Week 7)

Does anyone really want this trophy?

  • Tim Tebow has failed to impress week in and week out. 
  • Colt McCoy has just been winning ball games, but has yet to have a "wow" moment, let alone a "wow" game.
  • Sam Bradford's shoulder has eliminated him from the Heisman conversation. 
  • Tony Pike's forearm injury may have did him in as well.
  • Case Keenum continues to put up big numbers, but Houston's loss to UTEP makes it so hard to take him seriously. 
  • Recently anointed darkhorses Golden Tate of Notre Dame and Texas' Jordan Shipley have not stood out since being mentioned as candidates.

Have no fear, my latest attempt at adding someone to the Heisman list may go smoother. That's because I am fully committing myself to the Alabama bandwagon by adding Tide running back Mark Ingram to the Heisman Watch. The sophomore has been running wild this year, and went for over 200 against the Gamecocks on Saturday night. He may be the man who steps up and claims this award....an award that is currently going to be given to Tim Tebow by default.
