3 of the 4 voters from Austin's largest paper, the Statesmen voted Suh number 1. And they are getting crucified in the comments section for it..lol

How Statesman's Heisman voters cast their ballots

Wednesday, December 09, 2009

AND THE WINNER GOES TO ...

The American-Statesman has four voters for the Heisman Trophy. Here's how each filled out their ballots:

Kirk Bohls

1. Ndamukong Suh

2. Mark Ingram

3. Colt McCoy

Why I voted the way I did: McCoy's had a fantastic career and would take home the lifetime achievement Heisman award, but Ingram and Suh outperformed him in the biggest games. Suh has been a dominant player from season's beginning to end, maybe the most deserving defensive player ever to win the trophy.

Suzanne Halliburton

1. Colt McCoy

2. Toby Gerhart

3. Ndamukong Suh

Why I voted the way I did:For the past three years, I've given every candidate the 12 regular-season games. That seemed fair. This year, there is no obvious choice who jumps out at me as the consistently best player in college football. So I allowed career achievement to be the tiebreaker. McCoy became the winningest quarterback in major college history. He's earned the trophy.

Randy Riggs

1. Ndamukong Suh

2. Mark Ingram

3. Colt McCoy

Why I voted the way I did:Who was better than Suh? Nobody. The Big 12 title game was his pinnacle, but he was Godzilla all year. I felt McCoy should have won in 2008 — and I voted him No. 1 — but this year he has played only two true big-boy defenses and was average both times. Sorry, it's not a "body of work" award. Ingram played big in big games for the top-ranked team.

Mark Rosner

1. Ndamukong Suh

2. Mark Ingram

3. Colt McCoy

Why I voted the way I did:You could look at the stats: the 82 tackles, the 12 sacks — from an interior lineman — and the three blocked kicks. But all you really have to do is watch Suh cause havoc on an opponent, as he did against Texas. McCoy deserved the award last year, and I voted for him. He struggled against Oklahoma and Nebraska this season. Ingram got stuffed against Auburn, but he played well in the SEC title game

mc coy will look worse when he plays bama, than he did against us, if that is possible...the kicker won the game for Texas, mc coy contributed very little as a team leader.

 
Suzanne Halliburton is dumb. For the 100th time the Heisman isn't a career award <_<
