ESPN Insider Heisman Predictor has Martinez at #2

[Jack_John_Mark]

I'm an Insider at Disney so I got the pleasure of reading this.......so much for them not getting carried away about Martinez after week 3.

#1 Ryan Mallett Arkansas 99.5
#2 Taylor Martinez Nebraska 99.0
#3 Denard Robinson Michigan 98.5
#4 Terrelle Pryor Ohio State 98.5
#5 Andrew Luck Stanford 91.0
#6 Mark Ingram Alabama 94.0
#7 Kendall Hunter Oklahoma State 89.0
#8 Daniel Thomas Kansas State 87.0
#9 Kellen Moore Boise State 73.0
#10 Andy Dalton TCU 73.0

There is a whole article that comes with this, if you want me to post it I can.......it's not really much worth reading though. The points to the right of the player's names are how many points they "graded" out of a possible 100

LOL

You know if NU goes undefeated and he were to have days like he had @ Washington against Texas and potentially Oklahoma in the Big XII Championship, he could actually win the damn thing.

 

[HuskerFan8807]

red alert, you are correct, a couple of big performances against our harder opponents and we stay undefeated he is going to be in new york at the end of the year

now im not saying he deserves teh heisman, or that omg he is only a freshman going to new york!

All im saying is that he very easily could get the invite if the above stuff happneds

He should just go straight to the NFL after this season too.

 

[HskrTransPlant]

He's gotta have a play like this first against Texas or in the BIG XII title game.

i found the article you were talking about

Debuting at No. 2 this week is Nebraska Cornhuskers quarterback Taylor Martinez. Although Denard Robinson has received most of the attention as the nation's most electrifying player, Martinez deserves to have his name thrown into that discussion. The Huskers' passer finally had a chance to showcase his talents against a legitimate opponent on Saturday and responded by accounting for four touchdowns (three rushing, one passing) against Washington.



Martinez and Robinson entered the season as relative unknowns, but both have climbed to the top of the rankings thanks to the schools at which they play. Nebraska and Michigan are traditional powers, and Heisman voters gravitate toward their players. The Predictor accounts for this by awarding them five points just based on their school, which currently is the difference between second and fifth place for Martinez.
