Can Suh be the first primarily defensive player to win it since Woodson?

He deserves it over any other finalist.

Best collegiate lineman I've **ever** seen, including Orlando Pace and Danny Noonan. Absolutely stunning playmaker against Texas.

But, sigh, one of the QBs is going to win.

With all deference to LeeRoy Selmon, the absolute best performance I can ever recall by a defensive lineman was this guy against *my* team this year.

He gets my vote, followed by Ingram. After that I'm not sure; I haven't seen enough of the RB at Stanford to know for sure.

But if I had a vote it would go to Suh. I hope he gets it.

As a Kansas Fan I would give him the award. Su is a one man wrecking crew. Nobody can stop this guy!

I hope KC Chief’s draft this guy as he is top five pick.

Suh can thank Kirk Herbstreit for the props on Saturday night.

It’s just like Obama. A lineman getting the Heisman is a STORY; just like a black man winning the presidency is a STORY.

Pure B.S. -— just like all of contemporary American life.

If they wanted to name probably the best player in college football then a case can be made for Suh. But the Heisman has been an offensive player award for some time and I doubt that will change.

I really believe that Case Keenum of Houston should have been a finalist for the Heisman Trophy too.

Suh “deserves” it? Not going to happen. This always happens near the end of voting. Someone starts touting some unknown as the underdog, sexy pick and it never pans out.

As a huge Gator and Tim Tebow fan, McCoy will, and should, win the Heisman.

He must have played better against other teams throughout the year. When I saw him play against Tech, he was not a factor, notwithstanding all of the hyping from the announcers.

I’d give it to him. Go, Suh.

Match the stats to their respective defensive lines:

Line #1 98 Tkl, 23.5 TFL, 9.5 Sk, 20 QBH, 5 PBU, 0 Int, 1 FF, 3 Blk

Line #2 112 Tkl, 33 TFL, 14 Sk, 48 QBH, 5 PBU, 0 Int, 1 FF, 0 Blk

Line #3 116 Tkl, 25.5 TFL, 15.5 Sk, 10 QBH, 7 PBU, 0 Int, 2 FF, 0 Blk

Line #4 82 Tkl, 23 TFL, 12 Sk, 24 QBH, 10 PBU, 1 Int, 1 FF, 3 Blk

Answers:

Line #1 = Alabama.
Line #2 = Florida.
Line #3 = Texas.
Line #4 = Ndamukong Suh. By himself.
