2009 Heisman Trophy Watch (Week 12): Ingram closing in on history

1. Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama (1): Not only did Ingram log his sixth 100-yard game of the season, but after not scoring in Alabama’s last two games, Ingram got reacquainted with the end zone, not once, but twice, including a 70-yard scamper in the fourth that put the finishing touches on the Tide’s romp in [...]

2009 Heisman Trophy Watch: Oct. 6-10

1. Tim Tebow, QB, Florida: I wasn’t exactly for Tebow taking the field against LSU, but even though he didn’t exactly have a monster game, he did more than enough and even showed a little of the Tebow that we’re used to seeing. Last Week (13-3 W at LSU): 11-16, 134 yards, TD, INT, 17 [...]

2009 Heisman Trophy Watch: Sept. 30-Oct. 3

1. Tony Pike, QB, Cincinnati: Pike didn’t have his most accurate performance at Miami (of the Ohio kind), but 270 yards and two touchdowns is solid enough to take him over a still-uncleared Tebow for top spot.

2009 Heisman Trophy Watch: Sept 24-26

1. Case Keenum, QB, Houston: Will he win it? Likely not. But as of right now, he’s #1 in my book. He followed up the win at Oklahoma State by leading the Cougars 95 yards for a last-minute score to beat another national name in Texas Tech. Last Game (29-28 W vs. Texas Tech): 38-58, [...]
