Isabel, (905) 286-3000Vice-President, Investor Relations and Corporate CommunicationsCopyright Business Wire 2009. On Saturday, Alabama sophomore running back Mark Ingram won the 2009 Heisman Trophy for college footballs most outstanding player. And there were many story lines from the award ceremony:Alabamas First HeismanClosest Heisman Vote EverThe Votes Got it WrongThe Heisman is HijackedHuh For all of the positivestory lines that could have been pulled from this, including the fact that Ingram was the third straight sophomore to win the award, there was much debate over whether or not Ingram was worthy of the Heisman. Many questioned his merit and dismissed his win as just another slap in the face of the awards history and or regional bias.Well, lets be clear. The Heisman trophy is overrated. It has been for many years. Since 2000, only two Heisman winners have been on teams not playing for the BCS titleCarson Palmer in 2002 and Tim Tebow in 2007. In other words, the trophy is typically for the best player on one of the best two teams.Compared to the previous 10-year span (1990-99), only two played in the title gameGino Torretta in 1992 and Charlie Ward in 1993. Even if you add when Michigan and 1997 winner Charles Woodson split the title, that is still only three during that span. Furthermore, three winners were not even on conference winners and 1990 winner Ty Detmer and BYU finished 17th thanks to a Holiday Bowl beatdown at the hands of Texas A&M.Thus, the trophy has become a glorified pat on the back for the top teams. But, in all honesty, it really always has been, even going back Joe Bellino, Dick Kazmaier, and Glenn Davis. So, there should be no surprise of the recent trend to narrow it down even further.Nevertheless, the criticism has rained down, although it is no fault of Mark Ingram. Some have gone as far as claim he is overrated. But that is a bit over-the-top, as he still rushed for over 1,500 yards and averaged 6.2 yards per carry. That is hardly overrated.Really, the Heisman comes down to three players, or should haveMark Ingram, Toby Gerhart, and Ndamukong Suh. But, in fairness, I will look at all five finalists.Tim Tebow (QB, Florida) . Tebow was doomed by his own success. In 2007, he threw for 3,286 yards and 32 touchdowns. He added 23 rushing TDs on 895 rushing yards. While his 2009 rushing numbers were similar to 2007, his passing yards and passing TDs have all declined. In other words, he failed to live up to the bar that he set in 2007. It is still a solid season. But not enough.Colt McCoy (QB, Texas).

He averaged 270 yards per game while completing 70 percent of his passes. But he struggled against the two best pass defenses in the Big 12 and understandably so. And he has played against pass defenses that are among the bottom in the FBS. To be fair, the Big 12 is replete with some of the top passing offenses in the FBS, thus, injuring the Big 12s overall pass defense stats (a point that I will return to later).Ndamukong Suh (DT, Nebraska).

Suh has 82 tackles on the season, which ties him for 147th. That is hardly impressive. Well, until you take into account Suhs position. In terms of tackles (according to stats from ESPN ), Suh has the most tackles not just among defensive tackles but among all defensive linemenVirginias nose tackle Nate Collins is the next closest lineman with 76 tackles! He also has 12 sacks on the season, 10 passes batted down, 24 QB hurries, three blocked kicks, one forced fumble, one interception, and a partridge in a pear tree.His high tackle numbers are impressive for a defensive tackle. His lowest tackles performance (3) was against Kansas, which I cannot fully explain, but the next two lowestfour tackles in both the Oklahoma and Texas Tech gamesare understandable. Overall, he was consistent throughout the year.Suhs sack numbers were spotty, but even without the four sack performance in the Big 12 title game, eight sacks is a solid season. He was already on the radar, but that performance in Dallas is what really propelled him into the discussion.In the end, he had two things working against him. First, his position is not flashy enough to shift the bias away from offensive players. It is a shame, but it is a fact that offense receives more attention, although even there it is certain positions over others. For example, while Tennessee Titans quarterback Vince Young won the 2006 Offensive Rookie of the Year, there were some (including myself) who thought that San Diego Chargers offensive tackle Marcus McNeill was more deserving. Young was flashier and his stats more accessible, so he won.Second, while some were impressed with his dominating performance in the Big 12 title game, they still likely took it more as an aberration compared to the rest of the season. Again, some of the bias against the position comes into play, and people forget how often he was double-teamed.In the end, Suh was just as deserving of the award as Ingram based on his body of work.Toby Gerhart (RB, Stanford). Take the above analysis of rushing defenses and apply it here. Comparatively, Ingram ran against teams that are more designed to stop the run and tend to face the run much more. Yet, he still produced.While Ingram has far fewer total yards than Gerhart and a lower yards per game number than his Stanford counterpart, the Alabama running back still had more yards per carry. In fact, he averaged over five yards per carry in 10 of his 13 games (Gerhart only topped that average five times).And, Ingram added 30 catches for 322 yards. Add it up and Ingram had 1,864 total yards while Gerhart just edges him with 1,885 total yards. If you want to look at a complete player, Ingram appears to do more than Gerhart.Furthermore, Ingram faced more competition in the backfield than Gerhart. Trent Richardson took 126 carries for the Tide for 642 yards and six touchdowns (Roy Upchurch took another 49 for 290 yards). Gerharts backup, freshman Stepfan Taylor, took far fewer carries away (55) for 298 yards and two touchdowns. In fact, Stanford QB Andrew Luck was the teams second leading rusher!Considering that, Ingram had fewer chances to do what he did and, yet, still produced.The knock against Ingram was that he did not show up against Auburn and that his numbers were not as consistent as Gerharts stats. Plus, the fact that Richardson could be plugged in and run just as well as Ingram means that Marks numbers are more a product of his team and the offense than the sophomore himself.However, that diminishes what he has accomplished. After all, Richardson was a highly touted recruit, and I am sure if I was running the ball I would not get anywhere. Ingram is still a solid running back.So, Ingram is just as deserving of the Heisman as Gerhart or Suh. Or McCoy or even Tebow. And thus, it was a tossup.Nevertheless, the criticism exist. But it is unwarranted.My Bleacher Report colleague Bryan Kelly argues that the vote was based on the SEC bias and that the award was hijacked. Well, maybe the only way an SEC player could win the award was to hijack it.Ingram became only the second SEC winner this decade, and third in the past 20 years! In total, the SEC has nine Heisman trophiesGeorge Rogers 1980 award does not count as South Carolina was not a member of the SEC at the time. While tedious, here is the breakdown of BCS Heisman winners by conference. Note the Big 12 is included for teams that won it as members of the Southwest Conference or Big 8, as well as the Big 12:Big 10: 14 timesBig 12: 13 times (four as Big 12 teams; seven as Big 8 teams; two as Southwest Conference teams) Pac-10: 10 timesSEC: nine timesACC: twiceBig East: onceIt should be noted that the Pac-10 is carried by Southern California (7), with Oregon State, Stanford, and UCLA each with one Heisman winner. Historically, the Midwest has dominated the award, but over the past decade, the award has been fairly evenly dispersed: three winners each from the West coast, Southwest and Southeast, and one winner from the Midwest.But, given the lack of SEC winners over the last 20 years, it hardly seems like the long-held belief that the SEC is the best conference has translated in Heisman winners.The other criticism is that Gerhart had the most rushing yards, and so, he should have won. When has the player with the most yards (at his position) won the award Answer: Chris Weinke!Total yards is not everything. I mean, where was Case Keenum Or Dan LeFevour Or Damaris Johnson Or, if you need a player who is a top team, where was Mardy GilyardAnd where was Ryan Matthews, who led the country in rushing yards per game (151.3)Point is, being tops in a statistical category is not the only measure of a player. Some argued that C.J. Spiller is just as deserving as anyone, and he was not a leader in any statistical category other than kickoff returns for TD (tied with four).In a season when there really was noclear-cut number one team all season, it was fitting that there was never aclear-cut Heismanfront runner. And the closeness of the final vote only speaks to the fact that it could have gone either way.The Heisman voters might not have gotten it right by picking Ingram. But it is hard to say that they got it wrong either. - TCU, SMU and Houston had Heisman winners as Southwest Conference winners.This article originally appeared on Uncle Popov's Drunken Sports Rant on December 14, 2009..
