Don't forget these guys... RB Marcus Lattimore, South Carolina Gamecocks WR Justin Blackmon, Oklahoma State Cowboys QB Jordan Jefferson, Louisiana State Tigers QB Kellen Moore, Boise State Broncos QB Taylor Martinez, Nebraska Cornhuskers RB Michael Dyer, Auburn Tigers QB Jordan Wynn, Utah Utes
As much as it pains me to say it, Landry Jones will have a MONSTER year at OU. He's going to be in the mix, and will likely put up Jason White/Sam Bradford type numbers for the Sooners. My top 4: Landry Jones Andrew Luck LaMichael James Trent Richardson

Might be a smart $20 bet. You know he's going to put up ridiculous numbers. If the Coogs can turn those numbers into a 10-win season and no one else stands out, he has a decent shot.
The Heisman isn't based off past failures at a professional level. System QBs win the Heisman all the time.
