I would have to say that Crouch was the WORST pure QUARTERBACK of them all.

I would agree. However, the award was not for the best pure QB. It was for the best player in college football. The case can easily be made that Crouch is more valuable to his team than any of the other for. He did rush for 1,115 yards and 18 TD's. Nebraska would be no where near #3 in the BCS without him.

They finally recognized the existence of option quarterbacks? I mean, I could never understand anybody other than Jack Mildren having won the Heisman in 71....

Carr had 4,299 yards, 42 touchdowns, 7 interceptions this year and led the Dogs to a big win over Colorado, not to mention victories over Wisconsin, Oregon State, Colorado State, and Louisiana Tech. Last weekend's game against Utah State should have clinched it - 21-27, 442 yards, 6 touchdowns and no interceptions in less than 3 quarters!!! All the other candidates have been flawed, but Carr has been consistent all year.
