December 6, 20169 yr I thought it was vote totals for every place except first. I'm thinking the votes were pretty even amongst the bottom 4 guys. I haven't seen anyone as the consensus 2nd place guy. I personally think it's Mayfield but I'm not entirely sure it will be him. With two Oklahoma guys in the top 5 seems hard either would be 2nd.
December 6, 20169 yr The only thing that would have me nervous if I'm a Louisville fan is the fact Cook and Hurts aren't in the top 5 , did most the south vote for Watson.
December 6, 20169 yr Do people understand how Heisman voting works? The list shows me that there is not much competition. Pretty much 900 + ballots with 3 votes by each voter with the previous Heisman winners included in that number with a ballot. Points are awarded 1st 3 points, etc. They invite candidates until there is a huge gap in votes accumulated. Some years there have been 6, some 3, etc. So my previous list was my take on chances to win not actual votes. It did include the order I think they will get votes.

And since they have been inviting players to NY, the average has been 4 a season.
December 6, 20169 yr I heard one guy on the radio say something. His comment was that a lot of media people do not like Petrino and he wondered if that could affect some people's vote. It shouldn't, but people are people and do things for the wrong reason.
December 6, 20169 yr Author Desmond Howard's Heisman ballot: 1) Jabrill Peppers 2) Jake Butt 3) Wilton Speight 4) Jourdan Lewis 5) Taco Charlton
December 6, 20169 yr Jackson wins it with Baker Mayfield second. Next year Baker Mayfield wins it with Jackson second.
December 6, 20169 yr Author Jabrill Peppers highlight tape is going to be great. They're just going to show the return against Colorado and go back to showing Lamar Jackson highlights.
December 6, 20169 yr Author glad to see a Heisman ceremony invitation has become a participation trophy....
December 6, 20169 yr This group does not overwhelm me. I would put Jackson slightly ahead of Watson but it would not surprise if those two switched places.
December 6, 20169 yr Author Yeesh. I know I'm preaching without an audience here, but some things just really irk me and this is one of them. Haha
