It may be a surprise to my fellow FReepers, but even as an avid Ohio State fan, I agree with this award for Mendoza. He gave an impassioned speech.

He was an exemplary candidate and eventual recipient of his prestigious award.

Truly a fairy-tale season for Indiana. I’m glad Lee Corso is still around to see it.

Why did they even allow the Notre Dame player to be on the grounds of the ceremony when he was an eligible to win?

Gino Tourette should never have won the Heisman over Marshal Faulk.

He must be truly blessed because because he has the biggest smile I’ve ever seen. So here is my dilemma as a Raiders fan. Do they draft Mendoza or Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss who I believe will be another Mahomes?

He looks a little fragile for the pros. I've never seen Joe Namath rattled like that!

Bucks fan here
Mendoza deserved the Heisman Trophy. I felt bad for Mendoza when it looked like Bucks Curry knocked him out of the game. But Mendoza was back in the next play and did well enough to beat the Bucks.
I’m confident IU and tOSU will meet in the Natty. They are truly the 1st and 2nd best teams in college ball.
But upsets happen, it’s due to one minor or seldom used player having the game of his life.
Hopefully Hartline will not take the day off if the Buckeyes make it to the Natty.

He is the first Cuban to win the trophy. He thanked God, his teammates and his family. I wanted another QB to win, who had only 1 interception the whole year. Joe Fagnano, the QB from UConn.
