2019 Heisman Finalists: Burrow/Fields/Hurts/Young

[texifornia 56,560]

Would have gone Hubbard over Hurts personally, but otherwise a good field.

This is neat, too:

 

[Constant 6,722]

It should go to Burrow. That is 5 different Heisman finalists in Riley’s 5 years at OU. 

[lonestarsooner 121]

Absolutely should go to Burrow. Shouldn’t be close quite frankly. Hurts just couldn’t take care of the ball well enough challenge Burrow the second half of the season. 

[Longboard Horn 40,164]

Burrow has it in the bag

[Neonmoon 38,127]

Hahaha, what the fuck is Hurts doing in that field? 

[WBT 20,431]

What does a RB have to do to get invited these days?  Taylor and Hubbard both should be there.  I would have taken Dobbins ahead of Hurts and Young also.

Well Hubbards best game, 296 yards against K State, was on fucking Espn+ so none of the voters fucking saw it. Thanks big 12!

[Brandywine 1,313]

GWill be shocked if Burrow doesn’t get it.

[Getafix 28,416]

Of the 4 finalists, 

- 1 ex Ohio State QB

- 1 current Ohio State QB 

- 1 current Ohio State DL

 

[Patrick Bateman 3,903]

Burrows will(should ) win.  I don't think it's that close.

[Jkwellborn 6,656]

Burrows is gonna win it and it won’t be close.

[Mileslong 4,716]

This award should go to the most valuable player not just based on inflated stats. You could put Case McCoy in Riley’s offense and he could put up great numbers.

 

Burrows will be a star at the next level, we have already seen how Riley’s system QBs do in the pros. I know it’s just about college but it should go to the best player and Hurts isn’t anywhere near the QB Burrows is.

Hurts is there.

Why is it so difficult for dispshits to understand it's Burrow and not Burrows?

Same idiots who thought Tony Jefferies played for us or Romance Taylor.

Have you seen what happens to the Nigerian players' names at Texas on this board 2/3 of the time?

Because it's Burreaux, dipshit.

No one cares.  Get over it.

[Hugo Stiglitz 23,364]

Will be the first Heisman for an LSU player in 60 years.  

[BigOrange1 6,422]

well deserved.  he's been a joy to watch this year (outside of 9/7).

3 QBs who aren't with the school that originally signed them.

2 QBs in the playoffs while their old school sits at home.  1 other in the playoffs while their old school has a transfer.

I suspect Young may get a few votes from  people trying to make a point about defensive players, but I can't see too many people voting for Hurts or Fields over the corn dog. Should be a route, and deservedly so. Dude has been lights out this year.

[Red Five 40,688]

No one cares.  Get over it.

Well, one is his name, and the other isn’t.

[Guest Lobo]

In the last 14 years (basically post-Vince)...we've had 2 invitees to the finals in Manhattan?  Right?  

[Marfa Low Crown 2,544]

The Heisman ceremony this year is basically a formality. It's Burrow's and I think it's well deserved. Record setting
year for him and it doesn't hurt that he's quarterbacking an NC caliber team. 

[ChiTownDoc 21,102]

Just tells you how amazing LR is to see Hurts make it there.  Guy is a TO machine even with the greatest offensive mind in the business trying to manage him.  

Chuba or JK should be there.

Pointing to the spelling is like saying, “Get it?” after telling a joke. He lost my vote right there.

Will he cramp up on the way to the stage?

[pearlandhorn 3,269]

I understand why Young was invited. But really, why was he invited? The Heisman won’t go to a defensive player again in my opinion.

They always invite at least 3.  Anyone after that is so many points behind within a margin gets invited as well.

4. How are the finalists determined?

This is one of the most misunderstood parts of the Heisman process. You will often hear media or fans complain that a certain player was snubbed by not being invited to the Heisman ceremony. But the finalists are not determined arbitrarily. Starting from the understanding that there will always be a minimum of three finalists, whether or not more will be invited is determined by how close the fourth-place finisher’s point total is to that of the third place finisher’s, how close the fifth-place finisher’s is to that of the fourth-place finisher’s and so on.

In the 2008 Heisman vote, for instance, Florida’s Tim Tebow finished third with 1,575 points. The fourth-place finisher, Graham Harrell of Texas Tech, totaled 213 points. Because of the huge gap between those totals, Harrell was not invited to the ceremony, which featured just three finalists. In 2010, Kellen Moore’s fourth place finish of 635 points brought him much closer to LaMichael James’ third-place finish of 916, so Moore was included as one of the four finalists. The fifth-place finisher in 2010, Justin Blackmon of Oklahoma State, had just 105 points. There was a clear demarcation of support between him and Moore, so the finalists were capped at four.

In other words, the closeness of the point totals determines the final number of finalists. Where major gaps exist, that’s where you get a cutoff.
