BoondockSaint Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Tebow has done everything else, why not win back-to-back Heismans? That's the Florida quarterback's next accomplishment according to the results of a comprehensive polling of 32 Heisman voters by CBSSports.com this week. The voters -- all media members -- selected Tebow over Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford by a scant seven points. Texas quarterback Colt McCoy was third. The poll represents approximately 3.5 percent of the 925 Heisman voters. In selecting voters, CBSSports.com tried to achieve a balance by getting participants from all regions of the country. Official Heisman ballots are due Wednesday but there still doesn't seem to be a national consensus. In fact, the narrow margin in this sampling suggests that the Heisman vote might be among the closest votes in history. http://www.sportsline.com/collegefootball/story/11161976 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 If this award has any meaning at all, they give it to Tebow without question IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Professor Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 If this award has any meaning at all, they give it to Tebow without question IMO. Agree. Not to do so has no merit whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrambler Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I think that Colt McCoy should be the only other one than Tebow that it could go to and in my mind be legit. Both Tebow and McCoy lead their teams to sucsesful seasons, McCoy does not have the caliber of athletes around him that Tebow (or Bradford) does. McCoy basically was the Texas offense and lead his team in passing and rushing along with leading his Longhorns in beating Forida's opponet in the NC game head to head. I would have no arguments with either (Tebow or McCoy) getting the Heisman this year. I do think that this years vote my go down as the most narrow margin in the history of the award.

warrior_69 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I love the Longhorns but I've got to stick with the SEC foes. I think Tebow wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockPride Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Tebow may win, but bet he doesn't get many of the existing winners' votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corndog23 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Tebow is a great college player, but he does NOT deserve the Heisman this year. Colt McCoy was the most outstanding College Football player this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Bradford was better than McCoy this season. If Tebow doesn't win it, it has to go to Bradford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corndog23 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Bradford was better than McCoy this season. If Tebow doesn't win it, it has to go to Bradford. I respect your opinion, and i'm going to ask what makes you believe that statement? McCoy was the leading rusher on his 11-1 team, completed over 70% of his passes, and he beat Sam Bradford.

I personally am leaning a little towards McCoy for the very reasons that you have stated. That is jmo and is not fed by my dislike of Florida. Tebow I like. I cannot stand UF but cannot bring myself to dislike Tebow at all, he is the real deal and as good of aperson as he is a football player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarHeel Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 They should have invited Harrell. I guess they can only invite 3 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are deserving... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Anthony Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Tebow has been an excellent leader but his numbers were so good last year he obviously couldn't match them again. They tend to go with the hot guy and Bradford and his numbers are hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
