    It wold bode well for LSU's defense, since they did contain him well.

    I think it says more about the lack of great players this year. Sure he was the best player, but not that great compared to past winners imo.

    My feelings exactly. Weak field this year IMO.

    Johnny Football is by far the most exciting player this year. He is an excellent talent but I dont think he is at all a run away winner. I feel he should win but there are a few players that deserve consideration. He is hurt by playing very poor in their two losses, despite the great game against Bama.

    Teo is having a great season for a team thats about to play for the BCS. Unfortunately he plays D.

    Klein has had an excellent season and is K State. The Baylor loss really hurts him since he doesnt put up outstanding stats.

    Why is Manziel in the game with a 30-point lead in the 4th quarter? A&M looking for style points...

    I think he should win it pretty easily. His numbers are better than Tebow and Newton's numbers the years that they won.

    He doesn't compare favorably to them. No nc. Newton was 14-0. Manziel only has 10 Ws.

    Give it to klein or mccaron

    I understand that but the Heisman is supposed to go to the best overall player. Voters get too caught up in all the irrelevant factors. He probably won't win because some voters won't vote for a freshman either.

    Klein is out. I think it's going to be Mccaron but if I was voting it would be Manziel followed by Mccarron.
