Here is video of Alabama running back Mark Ingram being awarded the Heisman Trophy for being the best player in College Football. Ingram was awarded the trophy tonight, in what was the closest race in the history of the Heisman Award. He outpolled Stanford running back Toby Gerhart by only 28 votes.
Ingram becomes the first player in Alabama Crimson Tide history to win the prestigious award. . . . (VIDEO)

YES!!! He SO rocked against the Gators!! WOOHOO!!
I’m shocked. I really was expecting Barack Obama to be the surprise winner.
It’s funny - I had been hearing that it looked like the committee didn’t want to give it to a Qback, so I am sort of surprised. But definitely PLEASED! ROLL TIDE!
Barack wuz robbed!
Maobama waz robbedz...yeah
Congratulations Mark Ingram, the coaches throughout his life, his parents/siblings/friends and his teammates.
A lot of tremendous athletes have come from one of the more depressed cities in America, Flint Michigan.
Channeling adversity into a positive venue BUMP!
Let’s see if he can finally break the Heisman Jinx.
ROLL TIDE ROLL!
Toby got jobbed
RAMMER JAMMER
YELLOW HAMMER
GIVE ‘EM HELL
ALABAMA
ROLL TIDE
Congratulations Mark! It was well deserved. Now on to the National Championship.
Absolutely, Toby got jobbed. He wins the Doak Walker award as the best RB in the country....has lots more yards and TDs than Ingram (in less games) but comes in second for the Heisman. Toby should have started going to the tanning beds back in the summer. If even half the Heisman voters thought he was at least part black with his RB stats he would have won the Heisman going away. ‘cism is what it is. And now the NFL will job him just the same. I hope he goes the MLB route instead of suffering the humiliation the NFL will put him through because of the color of his skin.
If anyone can get ‘em ready, Saban can. It’ll be interesting to watch & see how Muschamps defense plays Bama’s offense.
Bama will crush Texas.
