Best Heisman Winner during the BCS Era Tournament - #8 Robert Griffin III vs #9 Tim Tebow

[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.

Man you know the Tebow mythos will never die

You got fools here that think Tebow was a better QB than Cam Newton or VY......despite the fact he lost more than twice as much as both

RG3 played in a no defense conference.

The stat that matters:

National Championships - Tebow: 1, Griffin 0.

Better season.

Edit: nevermind, forgot he didn't win the national championship that year.

Which one is the closest to Rutgers producing a Heisman winner.
There's your answer.

You couldn't get Tebow off the field.

3rd and 5 was a gimmee.

tebowwwwwww

 

[outofyourmind]

You put Tebow at Baylor and they might go .500

teeblow sucked kawk

 

[Blackshirts BLVD]

Crazy. Personally, I think RG3 is one of the most dynamic college football players I have seen in recent memory. He is the reason (in my opinion) that Baylor got to be as good as it was. I can't say the same about Tebow, even though I love the guy as a person.

 

[broncosmitty]

Wow.

2/3's of voters are nuts.

Is this some kind of joke? TT holds all the records. Passing in a bowl game, rushing, etc....and overall badassery.

Love RGIII, but chucking hail marys in a shitty conf. is a whole different world than the war of uber-talent in the SEC in Tebow's day.
