Title: Alabama QB AJ McCarron #2 in the Heisman Race?
Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 23, 2012, 03:47:51 PM
Very interesting article about the Top 10 Heisman candidates right now. Good evaluation of each player.

2. A.J. McCarron, Alabama, QB: As his flawless TD-INT ratio of 16-0 shows, McCarron has been razor sharp for the nation's top team. Sure, some will make the claim that he's not even the best player on his team, but you can't knock his efficiency or the fact that he was the guy who lit up the vaunted LSU defense in the BCS title game.

Here's another article about the Heisman. It's a poll of Heisman voters as of today. Check out AJ.

MFBATR's numbers weren't sexy enough for them last year. Toss in a little Alabama being #1 fatigue and a little jealousy, and you'll find AJ's chance similar to the proverbial snowball in...!

We need to come up with our own trophy to be handed out after the defacto NCG in Atlanta each year. I vote we call it the "Snake" award.

The snake award, lol. Well I just think if he wins one it should be the real thing. AJ has got to keep his head though because this could cost him 2 or 3 games trying to hard. It would be absolutely great. RTR!

Yeah, probably, but if they get a late enough start talking about it, and get bored with "Optimus Klein," then it could happen.  But no one wins the Heisman, any more than you win a Christmas present.

I think AJ is having a great year. I don't know if he is the best player in the country or not but he belongs in the conversation. He is producing at a very high level on the best team in the best league. If he keeps putting up 200 plus yards, multiple TD passes, no INT's per game and Bama keeps winning he will be invited to NY.

Confusing the Heisman with the Congressional Medal Of Honor? I guess you could base your Christmas shopping decisions on week by week statistics and the behavior/performance of the friends of the recipient, but that is a stretch in MHO. lol

AJ is having a good year, but I will reserve judgement until after he has played a tough defense like LSU.  If he carves them up like I think he will, then he will shoot up pretty high on the list nationally.
