    If any Heisman voter took the time to read this or an article similar or a fact sheet I don't think McFadden would stand a chance.

    Tebow is the winner, he's a deserving winner. I'd prefer a Jr/Sr. But he's going to win and it won't even be close.

    I agree, I think Tebow deserves to win it. I think a stronger case can be made for Chase Daniel/Pat White than for McFadden. If you're giving the trophy on incredible numbers/most talented player then Tebow's numbers are more impressive than McFadden's. If you're giving it on how valuable a player is to his team, I would call it a wash between the two. If you're in the camp of thinking it has to go to a player on an ultra-successful team then I could see a case for Daniel and White as both teams have better records than Ark/UF and are potentially going to play for the NC. When you look at all three factors and the entire body of work, you have to give it to Tebow.

    His numbers are off the charts and are the likes of which we may never again see.

    His team is a respectable 9-3.

    His team would not be anywhere close to 9-3 without him, IMO as he was the RB, FB, and QB and I think he may have even been able to catch his own passes if Meyer would have gotten a little more creative with the playbook. I virtually guarantee he would have been good enough to play LB for that defense.

    The most important factor for me though is that he is a gamer. He is what college football should be about. He doesn't care to take the hits and keep on playing. Rather than worry about messing up his NFL career, he lays it all on the line every Saturday.

    Wow, I'm really starting to sound like the guy in this letter gushing over Tebow.

    Anyway, the most important factor for the rest of the world as to why he will win the Heisman


    ESPN LOVES HIM!

    That's all he really needs anyway.
