Once again.....the format for Heisman voting proves to be faulty.
QB Jayden Daniels (Who?) wins the Heisman.
The Arizona State transfer who ended up at LSU had a 10-4 season last year and a 9-3 season this year.
His team wasn't even in consideration for the playoffs, yet for some reason the voters think he's a better player than Oregon's Bo Nix, or Washington's Michael Penix jr....even though both of them had better seasons and records.
His team beat up teams like Grambling, Georgia State, and Army, but he lost to Alabama, Florida State, and Ole Miss.
We'll see what happens to him when he gets into the NFL and gets beat up. A running QB doesn't have much of a chance of lasting all the way thru a 17 game season. Just ask Baltimore's Lamar Jackson. A skinny 6'4" 210 lb QB that most tacklers can throw around like a ragdoll won't last very long.
Every tough game he was involved in this year he lost. Unlike Bo Nix or Michael Penix jr. Bo Nix has only lost this year to Michael Penix's Washington Huskeys and both games were by 3 points.
I have to admit.....his highlight reel looks impressive....but that's what most of the voters used to base their voting off of, because LSU didn't have games that were broadcast nationally like the other candidates.
You be the judge.....do you think he's the best player this year?
