Who is all on the list for the heisman this year.

I know Ingram will be. But who else could take it home?

I think there are two guys in Oklahoma that have a shot. Landry Jones and Demarco Murray.

I'm really surprised I haven't heard Murray's name listed nationally. Personally I don't think Landry has a shot in hell to even sniff a nomination this year. Murray however could make some noise.

I know Landry is up for a couple of awards this year. Isnt he up for the O'Brian?

The guy was 2 completely different people last year at home and on the road. I know the bowl game was promising but I'm really looking forward to Cinci game as a big road test for him. I just don't expect him to be an elite level QB this season. I expect him to be solid, just not elite.

You never know. Bradford's second year was a breakout year too. Also so was Heupel's second year. You usually see a lot of growth between the first and second year starters.

You don't find a Bradford very often. You don't see people come out of nowhere like that. Plus Sam had a damn good 1st year. I expect to see some growth just don't expect him to be elite this season.

If he is just good away he could be elite because he was the best QB in the nation at home last year. It should be Murray's year this year though. If landry can get it going our run game should be great.

I'm still not 100% sold on Landry at this point. He still has plenty to prove. Word on the street is he has a couple youngsters nipping at his heels...hopefully that is motivation.

I heard that Freshman thats like 6'8 or something is really good.

Yeah both Blake Bell and Drew Allen are both very tall. Listed at 6'5 and 6'6. Both guys are suppose to be impressive. 1 is a true freshman and the other RS freshman.

Man those are some big QB's. Isnt Landry like 6'5 too?

I think he is listed at 6'4 but yeah he is tall. Sam was 6'5 I think.

Landry Jones doesnt have a shot in hell

Case Keenum has an outside shot at the heisman. QB at U of Houston.

That's what I'm saying. I think it is wishful thinking to think he will be an elite QB this season. Not saying he doesn't have a chance to be a very solid QB, just not top level.

He is already on the watch list. He should be top 5 to start the year.

Landry could be one by senior year just dont see it this year

Keenum esecially if there is no clear cut bad ass this year

If Pryor has improved as much as they say he has, then he has a legit chance as well. Tressel just needs to let him go and let him make plays like he did with Troy Smith.


Outside of that...Andrew Luck at Stanford has a shot...Jake Locker will have a shot (According to college fb analysts, though I dont agree).

I dont really know of any others. This year is wide open.

For some reason he is getting attention. He is up for the O'Brian award. If he goes off he could win it.

Landry has an underrated arm. It's like a laser, but I would say his receiver Broyles has a better shot at the award.

I think Terrell Pryor has a really good chance to win the award and a darkhorse is Ryan Mallett.

If the Buckeyes win the award is Pryor's for the taking. Every year college football anoints someone and this year it's Pryor. Pryor won't even have to play great. Just good.

I mentioned Kendall Hunter as a guy to watch out for this season. Watch out he might be on this Heisman list by the end of the year.

Until the OU game when he gets shut down and shut out of the heisman talks. That happens all the time to OSU guys. I think Murray is the guy. He carried OU to victory on Sat and could do it again this Sat. I HOPE.

Hunter will get his vs OU. I fully expect Hunter to do just as well as Murray...maybe better. I love Murray but Hunter deserves some respect. If he stays healthy he will get his, even vs our Sooners.

Its going to be tough for Hunter. Murray is already like number 6 on the ESPN list. Hunter has not even been mentioned. I say Murray will out rush Hunter this year. It looks like Murray is going to have to carry the biggest part of the workload this year.
