Best Heisman Winner during the BCS Era Tournament - #5 Carson Palmer vs #12 Chris Wienke

[iowajerms]

Seeds are from Ranking the Heisman Trophy Winners of the BCS Era on NFL and CFB Success

*Bush is not included on the list, so I put him at #16. Completes the bracket. Ranking is also by their CFB and NFL careers, but it is the best list I found.

Vote solely based on their Heisman winning season.

I'll be honest, I don't really know much about Chris Wienke. I remember Carson Palmer. He won Heisman over Iowa's Brad Banks.

Is this the loser bracket? There should be an option for neither should have won.

But the question isn't "Who deserved the Heisman more?"

I'm still waiting for the neither option.

Lol I was thinking the same thing... like this match up shouldn't happen because Palmer is seeded too high lol.
