Heisman Trophy Poll

Who do you got?

 

[MNVCGUY]

Would lover to see a non QB get it but I don't see how it isn't Mendoza given how Indiana did this year.

 

[Gophers7NatTitlesBadgers0]

Pavia and Mendoza meant the most to their team's success. Mendoza gets it for taking IU to the CFP.

 

[50PoundHead]

Seeing Pavia should be out of eligibility, I will go with Mendoza or Love.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Love is the best player overall but I think a non-QB has to have a historic season to win it. I went with Mendoza.

 

[pk2]

I wonder if Love will opt out of the ceremony.

 

[The Deliberate Stranger]

It will be Fernando but Diego Pavia has come along way from his first start against the Gophers in 2022

 

[ergopher]

In a just world, it would be Jacob Rodriguez from Texas Tech. People have compiled his stats and put them next to Manti Te'o in 2012, and it's just a staggering comparison. Unfortunately though you need to be a QB, RB or WR to win it so he didn't even get an invite. It will be Mendoza, and of the four he is most deserving.

 

[Drake University Gopher]

Too bad you can’t give it to the more deserving… IU or OSU defense. That throw/catch to comeback against Penn State though wins it for Mendoza in addition to the head to head win over Sayin’.

 

[Gophers1992]

Love is the best player overall but I think a non-QB has to have a historic season to win it. I went with Mendoza.

I hate that you are correct about this, but you are.

Is it just me or is this an extremely weak Heisman year as far as the actual numbers the candidates put up?

I've said that too, this feels like an historically weak Heisman finalist group. Mendoza's a very nice player, but he absolutely pales against most of the great QBs of the last 40 years or so.
