Montee Ball 2012 Heisman Winner?

[MarkOU]

Breaks NCAA record. Is a senior. Chance to lead his team to a Rose Bowl.

It's not about W-Ls and in a year like this when the most exciting QB is a freshman and the most talked about playmaker is a linebacker I say there is a chance.

If he has a big game against Nebraska and Wisconsin wins, I think he is right in the mix to win it because the vote will be widespread and divided.

 

[Red_Alert]

Yeah. Against this field he could win it Saturday night with a big game.

Depends how many eyes are watching Ball and how many are watching Klein on the other channel.

Te'o won't be getting any more live exposure before the vote, but has the media behind him.

 

[MarkOU]

I was thinking Klein had the deal sealed until his Baylor loss. He needed that perfect season to run away with it but I'm thinking Texas beats them so thats just another knock against him. Perfect chance for Ball to sneak up because plenty will be watching. Manzial and Te'o won't be playing. Could be an interesting surprise hesiman winner.

 

[Brasky]

I respect Montee Ball but his time is done.

 

[ForkEmBucky]

I really doubt he'll get a vote, unfortunately.

 

[Smart]

Doak Walker? Maybe.
B1G OPY? Possibly.
Heisman? No shot in hell.

"If a guy like Manti Te’o is not going to win the Heisman, they should just make it an offensive award ... just cut to the chase." – Brian Kelly

I like Montee and I'd rather see him get it than "Johnny Football" but I'm not sure he gets it.

Ball needed two more touchdowns to have a shot. Specifically, in OT of Wisconsin's last two games. If the Badgers were 9-3 and probably ranked 23rd or 24th heading into Saturday, it would be a different story, but I don't think he gets an invite.

Gayjay McCaron or Aaron Murray could get consideration if they have the game of their life

 

[Blackshirt]

Won't happen. I'd give it to that A&M QB, he's the one who truly deserves it this year imo.

Just saying, there is a chance.

Manti Tay-o has the human interest story, the undefeated season, the massive fanbase...if he doesn't win it, I'll be shocked.

He's not even the best LB in the country.

Jarvis Jones has better stats and is a better play that Manti.

Couldn't agree more.
