Caleb Williams in the 4th quarter: heart of a warrior. His... I can think of a quarterback who played injured against Utah and could hardly move, but actually beat Utah. But USC gets waxed by Utah in the conference championship, and a guy with really pretty fingernails sits on the sidelines crying, and therefore deserves the Heisman. Sure... why not. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ktmguy2018 Author No. 4 Share Posted December 3, 2022 And, he lost to the same team TWICE in one season! But, I am SURE it's not His fault.... *eye roll* 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJacksPlaidPants Moderator No. 5 Share Posted December 3, 2022 The cruddy thing about this situation is that the majority of Heisman votes have been submitted already. I personally like Herndon Hooker just because of his body of work. I don’t think Williams is even 1st Team All-Pac. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryProf No. 6 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Geez, by that metric, Bo Nix is twice as worthy of winning the Heisman. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
woundedknees No. 7 Share Posted December 3, 2022 The PAC will almost certainly vote for CW, because he has media cred, like a lot of other people who get hyped without actually backing it up with productivity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangGreen2 No. 8 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Ah yes, winning the Heisman is now a beauty contest . . . how nice. This has almost reached "is this some sort of joke?" level . . . if Caleb Williams wins it, it would certainly be a travesty. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Funduck No. 9 Share Posted December 3, 2022 U$C best win is against the Beavs. That team is ranked 15th. Oregon plays a top 10 team and Bo beats them on one leg. Does Bo deserve to be the Heisman winner? With 3 losses? NO! CW with 2 losses? NO! The PAC cannibalized itself again. Thats them apples. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Marsh No. 12 Share Posted December 3, 2022 By the same logic of playing hurt... Umm Nix beat Utah with one leg. I do feel that the new bar for the Heisman to be ridiculous now. It's not about the best player but being the best player in the best team.... Or one of the best teams. Sure wins should be one metric but let's get real... Quarterback, and this award always goes to quarterbacks or offensive players, don't play defense and that's 45% of the game (offense being 45% and 10% being special teams ). 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastBayDuckDad Moderator No. 13 Share Posted December 3, 2022 (edited) Mr 'Freaked up by Utah' manicure for Heisman? Nope. Just watched Duggan's gutsy performance against KSU in an exciting B12 championship game. Even though TCU lost and spoiled a perfect season, Duggan left it all (including a lot of his hematologic DNA) on the field. I really hope he still gets a shot at the CFP. Night and day difference to the Primadonna of Troy. Edited December 3, 2022 by EastBayDuckDad Misspell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goutes18 No. 14 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Nix and Rising both played on gimpy legs during the season and showed they were 10x tougher than CW. Rising hasn’t been full strength since missing the WSU game and Bo beating Utah was one of the guttiest performances of the year. CW did some amazing things this year and is very talented - maybe heisman worthy - but tough and gritty he is NOT! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duck 1972 No. 15 Share Posted December 4, 2022 My vote is Duggan. But Heisman IS a popularity contest that's also become politicized. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Hilarius Moderator No. 16 Share Posted December 4, 2022 The closest Caleb Williams comes to the Heisman is when he injured himself showboating the Heisman pose. This Trojanwire article clearly exemplifies the lack of critical reasoning resulting from a U$C education. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
