    I bowl on Thursdays and didn't see the show. However McCoy, Suh and Berry are all outstanding players who deserved the awards.

    That's strange about Spiller. He's the one I would vote for but he's not even invited.

    It's always assumed that the Heisman committee invites the top vote getters, whether it be 3 guys or 5 guys (or whatever they want) to New Yawk. So even though that is just a guess at the votes/order, it will be interesting to see if Suh is a top 5 vote getter or was he just invited for show.

    I'll say this ahead of time.....I have seen all the candidates interviewed and I have cursorily reviewed each candidate's performance this season. IMO, any one of the 5 is deserving of the award. I can't pick a favorite. It will make no sense to me if afterward someone says that one of the non-winners was "screwed." I'm sure there will be someone who will feel that way, but it won't make any sense to say the winner did not deserve the award. They all are deserving.
