IMO it was a very weak field this year. That, more than anything, is the reason Manziel won.

It was a weak field but his numbers were better than Cam and Tebow's. He was deserving.

That fact may say more about the myth of SEC defenses (overall) than it does about Manziel.

Maybe he should give it back due to the lack of competition. Also, if the "Field was weak" then what does that say about eveyone else? lol...

Regardless, the top of the sec is consistently superior to every other conference.
I honestly think at least 6 sec teams would be favored against every B1G team.

I have no doubt the top 5-6 SEC teams would smoke every team in the B1G, Ohio State included.

I didnt read the article, but I just remembered the SEC has won 4 of the last 6 Heisman's.
Tebow- 2007
Ingram- 2009
Cam- 2010
Johnny football- 2012

LOL! The SEC homers are in full force..
Yes we know the SEC is the best conference, wouldthe top 6 beat Ohio State? No, that is a down right stupid statement... Top 3? Maybe but Ohio State can play with any team in the Nation... You can point out anything you want but guess what? 12-0 doesn't lie! There's only 1 other team that can say that... And they aren't in the SEC.

Stupid statement ha? How about any hypothetical situation is stupid. Nobody from Ohio State deserved it more than Manziel. Deal with it.

I didn't say u couldn't compete, but you would be a definite underdog to:
Bama
UGA
LSU
FLorida
And likely dog to
A&M
USCe
Of course you could possibly win any of these but even the #6 team is just as good as your #1. No conference has six teams near that good.

And I'd say OSU beats LSU, UF, UGA, SCe, and aTm. They would hang with Bama too.
There is no doubt the SEC is a stacked conference like I said, I just don't see those teams beating Ohio St, especially UF with no real O, UGA with a weak running D, SCe with out Lattimore, and aTm with only really 1 weapon... LSU is a solid team that doesn't really wow but plays well, Bama has a good D a good rushing O combined with a QB that doesn't make mistakes..
And USMCAG, I didn't say anything about anyone from Ohio St deserving the heisman.... So your argument is invalid.

Congrats, that doesn't change the fact that OSU would lose and most likely lose big to Bama, UGA, UF, LSU and A&M.

You have your opinion, I have mine. You hate Ohio St so I would rather take Mark Mays opinion over anything that comes out of your mouth lol

It's irrelevant to say that until those teams play, that's my point. Congrats on the undefeated season.

Can we agree that Ohio State took advantage of a very weak OOC and a down B1G?
