He nearly brought them from behind losing 49-42 throwing for a school record 464 yds including a career long of 95 second longest in school history.

Almost only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades, and nuclear bombs...

Doesn't count in football...

If not for the pick in the end zone, Johnny Football could have been the front-runner for another Heisman after this game. Incredible play by both him and AJ.

AJ? Since when are you on a first-name basis with Alabama's starting QB?

PS. It's just a sports pet peeve of mine- nothing personal.

How is he still not the front runner for the Heisman? He's going to have ridiculous numbers and he's going to have tons of press. The QB from Louisville put up pedestrian numbers against a lowly Kentucky team, so he's probably out. Hard to say there's anyone even close to Johnny Football with regards to the Heisman race.

Don't sell Mariota short. Playing most of his games late will hurt him, but he has eye-popping numbers so far and a relatively easy schedule.

He may be, but beating Bama would solidified it.

Nah, he still would've had to do what he will have to do, regardless of beating Bama or not - he needs to put up the numbers and the highlights. If he beat Bama and then was just pedestrian the rest of the year, Bama wouldn't have mattered. It's still just one game, and he still plays in the SEC (although a very top heavy SEC) - it's a season award, as long as you don't blow chunks in a particular game.

Bridgewater certainly had a pedestrian day against a team that will be one of the worst in the SEC.

However, it's far from a two way race.

Yup. Dude is a beast. And, as a Tennessee fan... gave me a sad last weekend.

(Saw it coming, obviously... but, still hurt).

It's really related to late season heroics more so than a full season, imo.

And, Texas A&M will have to win the SEC West for him to win the Heisman.

Just how the voting works (with exceptions like Paul Hornung

).

Let me try again...it would have solidified his front runner status, not the award. Really, you're splitting hairs here.

Johnny Football did a lot last week - he made himself millions - probably situating himself to be drafted in the 1st round next May.

Who's splitting hairs now? He's still the front runner. Mariota is the only one close to him right now and Johnny Football would get the vote over him right now. It's not like he had a bad game against Bama - sure they lost, but he threw for a ton of yards, threw all over the field, and almost brought them back to win at the end. And that's probably the toughest defense he'll play against unless they play again. He is the front runner today.

Blah blah blah...do you want me to agree with you?

You're right, winning the game would have done nothing for him.

I clarified my statement for you because you apparently missed it. Get over it GF.

Because it sounds like you personally know the guy. When 99% of fans don't know anyone on their favorite team. Stop acting like they're your cousin or something. Like I said, pet peeve. Not much rhyme or reason to it.

Sort of like when you referred to Bo Pelini as "Bo" in that thread? Don't worry, I pointed it out for you there. It's a silly pet peeve, especially on a message board.

For christ sake. Quit being so nit picky. People have names for a reason. Do you really refer to everyone by their number or some title?
