Mariota, Cooper, Gordon Named Heisman Finalists 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Dec 9, 2014 2:21 am

Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota, Alabama receiver Amari Cooper and record-breaking Wisconsin running back Melvin Gordon are set to make the trip to New York for the Heisman presentation after the finalists were announced on Monday.

Mariota is considered the clear front-runner to win the 80th Heisman on Saturday night in New York. He would become the first Oregon player to earn college football's most famous player of the year trophy.

Mariota didn't even break the top 10 in the Heisman voting last season, but entered 2014 as one of the preseason favorites.

Gordon's on PEDs and Cooper is carried by his D and running backs. Mariota is the only one who has to do ALL the work with an insane TD- INT ratio. This has to be the least competitive Heisman run in a while.
