Robert Griffin has won the 2011 Heisman Trophy.

Thoughts? Anyone surprised it wasn't Luck or Richardson?

Luck was robbed.

watching the irish here, seeing how floyd does, hope we could make a move for him maybe if he drops to mid 20s, any one else watching?

[arnie_uk]

ive seen enough, get me michael floyd, i have never in all my years seen a WR/TE in baltimore history jump up and fight for a ball and come down with it like floyd just had... that reminds me of stafford to johnson.. thats the kind of target joe flacco needs

I wouldn't be surprised if he goes top 10 as long as he interviews/performs as well as expected at the combine.

Are you watching it too? I'm watching baylor now don't know wether to stay up or not.

Has Floyd not got off field issues or something causing him to fall to mid 20s

As far as I know he's had 1 DUI, but people do stupid things in college. When you watch him play there's no denying that he's got a top 10 skill set.

Alshon Jeffery seemed to get a pass for crappy play this season because of his Quarterback situation, yet nobody mentions the fact that Tommy Reese sucks when they're talking about Floyd. If he had even a semi-competent QB he'd be a top 10 lock.

[/quote]his qb play is awful and he sees double coverage all game long. Great talent, kinda wish he would get arrested again lol

Floyd was temporarily kicked out of Notre Dame because he was a repeat offender.

Once the combine and draft process start, he will be under the microscope, and heavily criticized for every little thing. Much like Dez Bryant was. And I could see him having just as big a fall as well.

[arnie_uk]

I hope your right, I would love him then a LT then a C

[ghost1986]

Wow if that Wisconsin coach isn't fired, they're making a mistake. Other than the Browns game of Week 16 at the end of the half, I've never seen worse clock management. First, he wasted a timeout because he thought the Oregon player crossed the goal line with the ball on the opening kickoff and then he says "Oh I think I'll try to spike the ball with two seconds to go in the game instead of trying to call a play." What an idiot.

[ghost1986]

Am I the only one watching Bowl games today? I gotta say I can see why Luck would be the #1 draft pick. he did have an interception tonight, but the guy who'd had it, already had 8. It's not much of an excuse. just saying. But Weeden is way overrated. The only reason he's had any success is Justin Blackmon. That guy's phenomenal and also a great guy off the field (I love the story of him and that little girl who's had cancer being friends. Great guy) But Luck makes the throws to multiple receivers and is constantly checking out of plays.

[ghost1986]

Man, I hate college kickers. First Boise and now Stanford lost because of their kickers.

That Stanford Kicker is going to be run out of town lol by everyone here on the board, well at least he would be if he was the Ravens Kicker lol.

Warren Sapp tweeted this:

[color=#444444][font=Arial,]"Luck Has Lost The Heisman And Now This Bowl Game, What's Next, Not 1st Pick"[/font][/color]

[color="#444444"]Yeah I doubt that Warren.[/color]

[ghost1986]

Yeah I'd never actually seen the guy play before, but I was impressed. And you gotta remember, Sapp hates on all the offensive guys. I remember when I watched the combine for the first time this year, Warren was saying how bored he was with the O-Linemen and wanted them to get to the D-Linemen. It's the same with Deion and his love for DB's.

I seriously doubt Bielema's job is in any danger whatsoever, after getting the Badgers to the Rose Bowl twice in two years (yes I know Wisconsin lost both...but they both were close games) plus sharing the inaugural Big Ten championship with Michigan State.

I didn't know anyone had weeded rated high at all... Dude has looked terrible at times this year

[ghost1986]

Well when I was watching the Stanford game, they were talking the guy up so much. I was like "Give me a break. Blackmon has carried Weeden on his shoulders the entire year." And the Wisconsin coach may not be fired, but he certainly is a bone head for both taking that timeout at the beginning of the half and for telling his QB to spike the ball with two seconds left and no timeouts. I thought, "Mah that's something Cam Cameron would try to pull."

[ghost1986]

Good lord. I'm 0-3 for bowl games. I wanted Wisconsin, Stanford and Va Tech to win and all have lost due to inexperienced kickers. Although, I think Va tech just lost due to a blown call on a TD catch. It was real close, but wow. I don't wanna watch the National Championship game because I want Alabama to win and they probably won't.

So my Wolverines won the Sugar bowl... Whatta you guys say, LSU gonna take it all?

I'd still say Alabama... Idk something tells me they will win...
Bama shoulda win the first one.. Well if they had a kicker at all

[IMissMattStover]

I live in Gainesville. and both of my parents are UF alum. I will be soon enough. That being said, I hate both teams that were in the NC game, but I had to pull for Bama cause I couldnt stand another year of arrogant and obnoxious LSU fans.
