My Heisman Trophy ballot must be submitted early next week. LSU quarterback Joe Burrow is likely going to be the runaway winner.
I have no problem with voting for Burrow (I can’t disclose my ballot until after the vote), but I am concerned that once again the most outstanding football player in college football is not going to be the winner.
There is doubt in my mind that Burrow is better than either Auburn defensive tackle Derrick Brown or Ohio State defensive end Chase Young.
Because Brown and Young are not quarterbacks and lack overwhelming statistical support, they probably have no chance to beat Burrow.
