Heisman race

Discussion in 'Oregon Ducks' started by BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94, Dec 5, 2014.

  1. Does anyone else feel like the media is trying to create this "it's closer than you'd believe" narrative? Melvin Gordon is GREAT and he is easily a top 5 player in the country but shit, Mariota is by far the best player in the country. This should be a landslide.

    I'm worried that the voters will vote biased toward the B1G, Like Desmond Howard...

    I dont think there is anyway Melvin wins it without something like 300 yards and 3 TDs tomorrow

    I usually don't care one whit about individual honors....but Mariota is an exception. He has carried this team and deserves recognition.

    Its Mariota's.

    Analysts on ESPN are just saying that to keep it a little dramatic.

    Yeah, it's way more interesting if there's actually a little drama and intrigue.

    STOMP mere fan

    600 and 8 would give him a glimmer of hope

    for all intents and purposes this race is over and everyone knows it. A truly dominant player on one of the only dominant teams at the most important position.... over

    STOMP

    A faint glimmer. Even Ethan Sherwood Strauss won't write an article saying it isn't Mariota's.

    The guy just deserves it. Not just because of this season, but because of his entire body of work. You know voters will take that into account. They know he deserves the recognition for what he has done over the past three seasons. Gordon wasn't even a name until that huge game he had a couple weeks ago.

    If Obama isn't eligible to be president because he's from Hawaii then Mariota isn't eligible to win the Heisman.

    Notice how we've never seen Mariota's birth certificate...

    Is Mariota secretly a Kenyan as well?
     
  11. I've heard he was the Anti-Christ...







    Man, I need to stop hanging out with Husky and Beaver fans....

    That's my point, we just don't know. I've seen nothing to prove that he isn't.

    I don't know how anyone could hate Mariota. Seriously, hate the Ducks but how could you hate a guy who is that humble, that reserved, and that friendly?

    That's a good point. These damn illegals stealing our jobs!

    We should get on twitter and start warning people.

    Sure thing. I'll get on my usual twitter handle @mrs_papag to spread the word.
