This was the year to have a dual Heisman, DeVonta and Mac.

Not difficult to see why Bama is so good. 3 in the top 5. Surely, that’s a first. They might be better than LSU was on offense last year. Might.

NON PC comment.

So of the 4 finalists there were 3 white guys and a black.

But more so there was one college player that gave up a #1 NFL draft pick to come back to Bama for his senior year, and excelled. He deserved the trophy.

The Heisman should go to the best college senior, IMHO that was Smith.

The state of Alabama has a deep bench to draw from...if you get my drift.

I miss the excitement of crowded stadiums. Blessings to those athletes making it through this madness.

More politically incorrect crap.

In 9 years, Heisman winners:
2010- Cam Newton
2011- Robert Griffin (the 3rd 🙃)
2013- Jameis Winston (look at his off field exploits)
2016- Lamar the Jackson
2018- Kyler Murray

Remember, last season was the year of the (b)lack quarterback. How many of the above are even any decent this year? Maybe one.

Well if there was an nfl to go to, the Heisman curse would flatten his career anyway.

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!

Congratulations to DeVonta. Amazing athlete and a great individual.

Congrats to DeVonta, Mac and Najee. The fact that Bama had three nominees in the top five is proof of Bama’s insane offensive talent.

The real vote will be the draft - the MVP will be a QB not Davonta. Davonta prob won’t go in the top 10.

If not for Najee Harris, Mac Jones would have placed second. Next year, no one will even care that he was 2nd, or 3rd. If the vote had been taken after DeVonta Smith’s performance against Notre Dame, he likely would have gotten another 75-100 1st place votes. He has NFL+ speed and quickness.

As for Mac Jones, he had a fantastic season. He also had maybe the best offensive line in the country, and the best group of receivers. Could have accomplished the same numbers at another school? Probably not. Alabama QB’s have not done so well in the NFL, but I think Jones is different. He should do very well. Sark is a genius QB and OC coach who will undoubtedly be able to recruit some of the best QBs and receivers in the country.
