The Nard Dog is having an incredible year - ridiculous even!
He is running away with the heisman... quite literally running and playing like a heisman.
The numbers he has put up are uncomparable... 200 yds rushing and passing pretty consistently... touchdowns...
But is he a lock for the heisman?
The guys at PTI say yes. Halfway through the season and Kornheiser says the field has a 40% of winning - and Wilbon says only 10%!
Really? The field is pretty good, and you just need one of those guys to explode.
They also mentioned the way he plays he could get hurt- and they even cited Denis Dixon.
Not only is it possible, it's probable.
And let's not forget the competition he has faced. U Conn could be good. ND is bad. IU is awful. A Mac team - and UMass is worse than all of them... i'm not convinced.
i say in future games he'll be forced to throw more and not run as much and will be exposed. The defenses will find ways to stop him. And he'll miss parts of games with injury.
There has to be a flaw in his game- he wasn't even a starter last year- and it's not because of a veteran- it was another freshman.
The real wonder to me is- what could have Terrell Pryor done in this offense?
That guy is pretty incredible, he even caught a TD pass.
And what about Kellen Moore? Boise St may not get a national title chance, but maybe they'll let Moore throw more and if they want to be considered, they have to outscore their opponents by a lot. Plus, he'll get some career votes.
Those two guys along with LeMichael James (the guy i like) from Oregon are all playing for title contenders. i got to think they have a shot.
All that to say, i've heard from some U of M friends that Robinson really is a nice guy, a humble guy. And it would be fun to see a good guy win it.
