McCarron doesn't belong on that stage.

McCarron doesn't belong on that stage.

Absolutely. He's not even the best player on his team.

Hush with all the anti-McCarron talk... McCarron at the Heisman ceremony means Katherine Webb at the Heisman ceremony.

^ this man has his priorities straight.

Winston or Mason imo.

 

[bhsman]

Andre Williams but it should probably be Mason.

Winston wins. Why not just make rape legal ...

Shouldn't he be at least charged before you convict him?

Really?..

 

[bhsman]

McCarron got 2nd??? Some poor team will drop a first on him and regret it.

Yep and it's an absolute joke!

 

[Dutchrudder]

McCarron received 79 first-place votes, 162 second-place and 143 third-place.

Wow, that's incredibly dumb.

You probably still think the Duke lacrosse team is guilty, right?

Wow, that's incredibly dumb.

This career award crusade for McCarron by the college football awards is ridiculous. His numbers this year were average, as far as winning awards are concerned.

207/306 (67%) for 2676 yards with 26 TD's and 5 INT's.

His numbers last year were superior, but there was no media crusade to get him awards then. People just can't seem to comprehend the fact that a team won 2 MNC's without having a star QB.

Meanwhile, a guy like Bridgewater puts up better numbers but doesn't finish top 8 because his defense gave up 38 pts to UCF (a game in which he threw for 341 and 2 TD's). Also, how McCarron finished 2nd and Manziel finished 5th is beyond me.

The main thing I get from that picture is they put Texas in the southwest demographic.
