West Virginia - Dont know if I should use Slaton or White (I'm thinking Slaton), but I need one of them. Maybe I can wait to see if they beat USF on Friday night, and if one of them shines in the Friday night tv game...

Don't candidates from the same team tend to split votes? Bush won with Palmer, right? But Slaton is no Reggie Bush. I think you could go without a WVA guy on your list honestly.

I don't.

Bush won with a Heisman winner on his team. Stuff like that doesn't affect an individual voter, imho.

McFadden
Rice
Brennan
White/Slaton
Woodson
maybe Tebow
Hart
maybe Brohm, no D is not his fault.

Noel Devine will probably spell Slaton enough this year that I wouldn't worry too much about leaving Slaton off the list. And the only way Pat White has a shot is if WVU goes 11-0, since Slaton is their "star".

Brohm's team is too bad for him to win. 7-4 quarterbacks don't win Heismans.

Matt Ryan is a good pick IMO - better than any of the Big East guys except Rice. Look at BC's schedule - they'll alomst definitly be 7-0, and he should get some good pub when he takes an undefeated team on National TV and throws five TDs in South Bend in about a month.

Brohm has no chance (although it isn't his fault), but I like the rest of this list. Instead of Brohm, I'd probably go with Booty. I'd be sick leaving Booty off any Heisman list since the QB of the best team wins seemingly 80% of the time.

Shame to have to put both WV players on, but it really could be either one at this point. If you can get away with it, waiting to see if they lose to South Florida and then removing one or both might not be a bad plan.
