Default Colt Brennan for Heisman? Seriously.

Credit to this thread on Front Office Football Central for putting this guy on my radar.

<font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre>YEAR CMP ATT YDS CMP% YPA LNG TD INT SACK RAT

He also has 40 carries for 131 yards and 2 TDs(remember his 12 sacks are counted against his yardage in NCAA).

Brennan is the run-and-shoot QB for Hawaii. Run and Shoot offenses are legendary for inflated QB yardage and touchdowns, but in this case Brennan has been superbly efficient even with opposing teams gearing for the pass on every play. I think he even has a shot to break the all time QB Efficiency rating.

The bigger mark against him is he hasn't played top competition. Fair enough, but consider his games against Alabama, Boise State and Fresno State(all road games):

At the very least, the guy deserves an invite to the ceremony.
