Interesting Article: Ranking ALL Heisman Winners, Including Cam

[Tiger Wench]

Obviously too long to post.  Barry Sanders is #1, Cam comes in at #4.  Bo at #45.  Ingram #64.  Sullivan #70.

I think Bo was shit on a little bit with that #45 ranking...

[Buzz Killington]

Also...no fucking way Ingram ranks higher than Sully.

Bo at 45? W...t....f?

I think this is Hiesman Trophy winning seasons. If I remember correctly, the year Bo won the Heisman, wasn't even the best year of his career. Correct?

Yardage wise, it was.

In the article the guy pointed out that it would be higher except he missed parts of two games with injuries. 

Hate to say it, but Bo's stats in college weren't quite as impressive in hindsight as one would think.  Most of that was due to a lack of carries.  He was in the wishbone his first couple of years so he was splitting carries.  His Junior year he spent a lot of the season injured.  His senior year Dye moved him to tailback in the I and he went off for nearly 1800 yards.  But as I put in another thread, Bo's legacy isn't really about stats, it's about the jaw dropping ways he pulled things off.

The last line in your paragraph is why I question the ranking.
