Just remember........The winner is NOT decided by Las Vegas Odds.
There are three categories of eligible voters for the award winner:
Sports journalists: Heisman.com states that sports journalists are to be the determinants of the award since they are "informed, competent, and impartial."[14] There are 870 media voters: 145 voters from each of six regions.
Previous Heisman winners (and in cases where an underclassman wins the award and remains in school to play, a prior winner may also be a current candidate). According to Heisman.com there are currently 57 prior winners eligible to vote[14] and, thus, 57 potential votes (a prior winner is not required to vote and does not lose his voting privileges by not voting).
Fans: As the Premier Partner of the Heisman Trophy, Nissan has a vote and gives this to the fans. Fan voting done through a survey collected by ESPN on NissanHeismanHouse.com. This constitutes one Heisman vote.
Except for the one vote based on the fan voting, the balloting is based on positional voting, whereby each voter identifies three selections, ranking them in order. Each first-place selection is awarded three points, each second-place selection is awarded two points, and each third-place selection is awarded one point. Voters must make three selections and cannot duplicate a selection, else the ballot is invalid and none of the selections count.[14]
The accounting firm Deloitte is responsible for the tabulation of votes, which has moved almost exclusively to online voting since 2007.[14]
Good post MM. I think Caleb has a very good chance to win it this year. Which is actually a year earlier than I thought. Back to back Heismans has never been done at SC . Archie Griffin still the only 2x winner?
He would be USCs first soph to win it. And only the second non senior. Would be the first to win it for usc in his first year at the school.
im going to guess if he won it he would be one of the first to ever win it in his first year at a school and one of the first to win in his second year in school.
oj won it in his second year at usc but that doesn’t count since he had 4 years of college. Johnny football was a redshirt frosh. So that’s close. Caleb had a year of experience on him. Johnny had a year at the school.
not sure if any other true Sophs or redshirt frosh have won. Joe burrow was a transfer not sure how long he’d been in college or at lsu.
Yep. I don’t know for sure but I’m guessing Caruso ponied up some cash. Caruso just burned $100 mill in a stupid campaign race. You guys have Knight and got caught paying before it was legal tho.
