Mavric Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 Todd Gurley’s 293-yard, four touchdown all-purpose performance in Georgia’s 45-21 victory over Clemson this past Saturday has vaulted the Bulldogs running back to the top of HeismanPundit’s Heisman Straw Poll released on Tuesday (Sept. 2). The junior from Tarboro, N.C., collected five first-place nods from the 10-member panel of Heisman voters from around the country. He appeared on every ballot and totaled 23 points, placing him well ahead of Texas A&M quarterback Kenny Hill, who placed second with 14 points (and two first-place votes). Hill’s 511 yards passing in A&M’s rout of South Carolina led to the sophomore being named on seven ballots. Link The HeismanPundit.com Heisman Straw Poll, 9/2/2014 Total Points (with first place votes in parentheses) 1. Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia — 23 (5) 2. Kenny Hill, QB, Texas A&M — 14 (2) 3. Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon — 13 (3) 4. Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State — 5 5. (tie) Ameer Abdullah, RB, Nebraska — 1 Tyreek Hill, RB, Oklahoma State — 1 Eric Kendricks, LB, UCLA — 1 Jordan Westerkamp, WR, Nebraska — 1 Taysom Hill, QB, BYU — 1 Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 lets slow down and let him get a few games under his belt........gotta love the kid, but its a long season. Quote Link to comment
Warrior Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 I'm glad to see the recognition for him and the team, but it's a log jam of RB's this year. Just an invite to NYC would be an honor at RB this year IMO. Having said that AA belongs in that group of RB's and in the conversation.. Quote Link to comment
Comish Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Actually surprised that ESPN even noticed. Most of the coverage I saw on the wrap-up shows over the weekend basically gushed over Gurley and said it was his to lose........ Quote Link to comment

Most of the coverage I saw on the wrap-up shows over the weekend basically gushed over Gurley and said it was his to lose........ True, plus on their bottom-of-the-screen scroll on Saturday they were listing Newby's stat line instead of Ameer's haha Quote Link to comment

admo Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 lets slow down and let him get a few games under his belt........gotta love the kid, but its a long season. It's full throttle - FAU - McNeese State - Heisman - Rankings - ESPN GAMEDAY - ....... sigh Quote Link to comment

Hunter94 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 lets slow down and let him get a few games under his belt........gotta love the kid, but its a long season. you are talking about Kenny hill, right? there is the normal handful of guys on the watch list, they all have to play well against top competition as the season goes on, to be serious Heisman contenders, Ameer is hopefully one of those guys.......one game is no measure of any of these guys....just sayin, but good to be excited.

Most of the coverage I saw on the wrap-up shows over the weekend basically gushed over Gurley and said it was his Georgia's to lose....... Fixed that for you. Lets be honest. This will be given to a QB on a top 4 team, unless Gurley or Ameer can carry their teams into a playoff spot & even then it will be close voting with whatever QB ESPN is pushing for.

I see what you're saying, but it's hard to argue with Newton, RGIII, Manziel and Winston the last 4 years. I think they proved with RGIII that it's not necessary to be on a playoff team in the SEC. If either of the two guy above reach 2k on a 10 win team they'll be in the discussion. Not saying Winston or some newcomer won't light it up and be more deserving still, but the award has been pretty good the last 4 years. (2009 however....) Quote Link to comment

Literally one game. Ameer and the others have at least been good in past seasons too. Quote Link to comment
