This year, there aren’t clear lines separating the best players from the good players. Usually, by mid-season, you can pick out around 10 players who should be in consideration for the Heisman above all others. I don’t think that’s the case this year. One of my friends actually joked last weekend that they should give the Heisman to the best defensive player this year, because there’s not really a quarterback, running back, etc. that deserves the honor.
