Johnny Football should be the Heisman winner, without question. I suspect being a freshman, well, and his debilitating skin condition will be the only things holding him back. The guy is an incredible athlete--it's insane to think he is only a teenager! Something tells me NFL scouts won't be calling him the next Mike Vick when he's eligible for the Draft in a few years.

I think Johnny Manziel is the Heisman frontrunner. Hopefully ND loses next week and bumps Teo out of the equation. If Keuchly didn't win it last year than Teo should not this year.

Also Mike Mauti was injured once again by a cheap chop black from an indiana RB.

Just watched Stanford beat #2 Oregon.
Stanford's defense was amazing. Oregon only scored 14 pts.
I didn't really check, but it seemed that Stanford's defensive line and linebackers were all or mostly white. They really shut down the 'dynamic' 'explosive' athletes of Oregon.
Also Stanford's red-shirt freshman QB, Kevin Hogan looked very good, and their TE, Zach Ertz, was exceptional.
This is a team to root for, and really always has been.
But for the past 3 or 4 years, starting with Gerhart and then Luck, they have been one of the top teams in the country, with majority white starters and white superstars.

The quacks lost the game because one of the vaunted, "athletic" RB's forget to block on a long run by the Duck QB. The RB had plenty of time and had the position to block the Stanford tackler but he failed to even attempt to make the needed block. As a result, the tackler managed to catch up with the Duck's QB on a long run down the sideline. This mega mistake cost the Ducks a crucial TD in a very tough game. But nobody is talking about that mistake. Figures.

Looks like the nightmare scenario might look like this for the mythical national championship game. USC beats Notre Dame, Florida beats Florida State, Georgia and Bama both win next Saturday, and Florida plays the winner of Bama/Georgia for another all SEC national championship game. Incompetent AA QB or not, overhyped Poly linebacker or not, all I can say is go Irish.
Its too bad the Ducks didn't have Bennet and QB, and that they lost Boyett for the year at safety. With those two in the game last night, the Ducks might very well have won, and been definetly more rootable. As it was I think I saw three white Ducks on defense for most of the game, and three represents about the combined total white defensive starters that South Carolina, Ole Miss, Georgia (now that Vasser is out for the year), Bama, LSU, Kentucky and Miss St field.

Johnny Manziel is emerging as the Heisman Favorite...

The Stanford defensive front 7 is as good as any in the SEC! 6'-6" 260 DE/OLB Trent Murphy ran down Ducks QB Mariota as he tried to take it to the outside!

WR-Brandon Kaufman(jr.) 6'-5" (Eastern Washington) had another big game 9 catches 161 yards...he's on the NFL radar(ex team-mate Johnson drafted 4th round by Cowboys this year)

Eric Breitenstein(Wofford) had 125 yards rushing vs So.Carolina...could he be this years Nate Eachus and land a 53-man roster spot in the NFL next season??

Sophomore TE Travis Dickson led LSU in recieving 5-69 in his first real action of his career.

Athlon has him ranked as the 8th best OLB prospect for the NFL Draft, saying he could also play at DE. His fellow teammate, Chase Thomas is ranked 4th.

The Cardinal defense impressed me alot on Saturday evening. I thought they won that game for Sanford.

here's a quick compilation of statistical leaders in the FBS after 11 games in 2012.

1,000 yard rushers:

quarterback Jordan Lynch - Northern Illinois - 1,504 yards, 16 touchdowns
running back Beau Blankenship - Ohio - 1,355 yards, 11 touchdowns
running back Cody Getz - Air Force - 1,131 yards, 9 touchdowns (10 games)
quarterback Trent Steelman - Army - 1,152 yards, 16 touchdowns
running back Zach Line - Southern Methodist - 1,126 yards, 9 touchdowns
quarterback Johnny Manziel - Texas A&M - 1,114 yards, 17 touchdowns

to put that in perspective, there are currently 34 total 1,000-yard rushers in the FBS. despite having a sparse handful of White athletes who are allowed to run the ball, they make up almost 20% of the nation's elite. "weird," huh?

3,000 yard passers:

Colby Cameron - LA Tech - 3,679 yards, 28 touchdowns, 2 interceptions
Seth Doege - Texas Tech - 3,575 yards, 35 touchdowns, 11 interceptions
David Fales - San Jose St - 3,431 yards, 28 touchdowns, 8 interceptions
Nick Florence - Baylor - 3,429 yards, 27 touchdowns, 13 interceptions (Heisman winner? ha!)
Ryan Nassib - Syracuse - 3,404 yards, 23 touchdowns, 9 interceptions
Mike Glennon - NC State - 3,403 yards, 27 touchdowns, 14 interceptions
Dalton Williams - Akron - 3,335 yards, 25 touchdowns, 16 interceptions
Tyler Bray - Tennessee - 3,319 yards, 30 touchdowns, 12 interceptions
Derek Carr - Fresno St - 3,290 yards, 32 touchdowns, 5 interceptions
Matt Barkley - Southern Cal - 3,273 yards, 36 touchdowns, 15 interceptions
Zac Dysert - Miami (OH) - 3,265 yards, 23 touchdowns, 12 interceptions
Landry Jones - Oklahoma - 3,245 yards, 24 touchdowns, 8 interceptions
Matt McGloin - Penn St - 3,071 yards, 23 touchdowns, 5 interceptions
Bryn Renner - North Carolina - 3,051 yards, 23 touchdowns, 7 interceptions
Johnny Manziel - Texas A&M - 3,047 yards, 21 touchdowns, 7 interceptions
Tyler Wilson - Arkansas - 3,028 yards, 20 touchdowns, 12 inteceptions

to put that in perspective, there are currently 21 3,000-yards passers in the FBS (and several more who should pass the threshold in the next game of the season). despite the overwhelming push to force black quarterbacks onto every program, the best passers are overwhelmingly White.

900 yard receivers:

Alex Amidon - Boston College - 1,175 yards, 7 touchdowns
Brent Leonard - LA Monroe - 944 yards, 9 touchdowns
Alex Neutz - Buffalo - 923 yards, 11 touchdowns

to put that in perspective, there are currently 27 900-yard pass catchers in the FBS. the wide receiver position has been systematically darkened, perhaps as much as the running back position, over the last 30 years.

Nation's leading tacklers:

#2 - Dan Molls - Toledo - linebacker - 79 solo
#3 - Nick Clancy - Boston College - linebacker - 76 solo
#4 - Cody Davis - Texas Tech - safety - 75 solo
#11 - Justin Anderson - LA Lafayette - linebacker - 55 solo (9 games)
#12 (t) - Brandan Bishop - NC State - safety - 66 solo
#12 (t) - Jake Fischer - Arizona - linebacker - 66 solo
#19 (t) - Ben Heeney - Kansas - linebacker - 65 solo
#26 (t) - Greg Heban - Indiana - safety - 61 solo
#28 - Davis Cazares - New Mexico St - safety - 55 solo
#29 - Tyler Matakevich - Temple - linebacker - 54 solo

to put that in perspective, despite most defenses being overwhelmingly black, 1/3 of the nation's elite tacklers are White men.

Nation's leading sackers:

#6 (t) - Chris Jones - Bowling Green - 10 solo, 3 assists (defensive tackle)
#6 (t) Morgan Breslin - Southern Cal - 10 solo, 3 assists
#8 - Travis Johnson - San Jose St - 10 solo, 2 assists
#15 (t) - Travis Long - Washington St - 9 solo, 1 assist (linebacker)
#15 (t) - Bjoern Werner - Florida St - 8 solo, 3 assists
#21 (t) - John Simon - Ohio St - 9 solo
#26 (t) - Trent Murphy - Stanford - 8 solo, 1 assist (linebacker)
#26 (t) - Jared St. John - Tulsa - 8 solo, 1 assist

there are very, very few White defensive linemen who get scholarships. yet, several of those small number manage to be amongst the nation's elite. "weird," huh?

Thanks for the update. If you look at all the overlooked white talent that goes to Div 2 teams and compare it to the mostly marginally talented blacks out there we would have a lot more guys playing D1 ball and getting to the NFl.

here's a quick compilation of the FCS national leaders.

Leading rushers:

#2 - Zach Zenner - South Dakota St - 1,703 yards, 10 touchdowns
#3 - Eric Breitenstein - Wofford - 1,653 yards, 16 touchdowns
#11 - Gavin McCarney - Colgate - 1,309 yards, 22 touchdowns (nation's leading rushing quarterback)
#13 - Tyler Varga - Yale - 935 yards, 8 touchdowns (8 games)

but where are the others? the facts speak for themselves. with so many White runners at the top, the Bell Curve should show several others scattered throughout the list, but the Caste System prevents the natural distribution of White performers.

the next White rusher is all the way down at #36, Morehead State's Rees MacShara. the former 4A Kentucky PoY who led the state of Kentucky with 3,073 yards and 43 touchdowns as a senior, MacShara (of course) didn't receive a single Division One scholarship offer.

Leading receivers (yards per game):

#1 - Erik Lora - Eastern Illinois - 1,531 yards, 12 touchdowns, 124 catches
#4 - Luke Tasker - Cornell - 1,207 yards, 8 touchdowns, 75 catches
#6 - Brandon Kaufman - Eastern Washington - 1,270 yards, 10 touchdowns, 65 catches
#14 - Mike Rios - Marist - 968 yards, 9 touchdowns, 40 catches (10 games)
#16 - Brian Wetzel - Fordham - 1,042 yards, 7 touchdowns, 72 catches
#17 - Ryan Spadola - Lehigh - 851 yards, 4 touchdowns, 57 catches (9 games)
#18 - Grant Gellatly - Cornell - 940 yards, 5 touchdowns, 61 catches (10 games)
#19 - Mark Ross - Lafayette - 1,030 yards, 10 touchdowns, 75 catches

Grant Gellatly provides yet another poignant example of the Caste System in action. a first-team All-State running back AND cornerback in high school, the two-star recruit was completely ignored by Division One programs. furthermore, once he arrived at Cornell, he was moved to wide receiver despite (as his coaches asserted) being "one of the top open field threats" in the conference and having never played the position before. :doh: if he wasn't going to play at tailback, then why not move him to his other natural position at cornerback? nope, there's no racial bias in collegiate football. nope, none at all. please move along. :tape2:

3,000 yard passers:

#1 - Taylor Heinicke - Old Dominion - 4,158 yards, 35 touchdowns, 13 interceptions
#2 - Casey Brockman - Murray State - 3,729 yards, 28 touchdowns, 10 interceptions
#3 - Kevin Yost - Idaho St - 3,690 yards, 24 touchdowns, 15 interceptions
#4 - Brady Attaway - Stephen F. Austin - 3,671 yards, 29 touchdowns, 21 interceptions (ouch!)
#5 - Jimmy Garoppolo - Eastern Illinois - 3,602 yards, 31 touchdowns, 14 interceptions
#6 - Derek Carr - Tennessee Martin - 3,276 yards, 31 touchdowns, 8 interceptions
#7 - Mike Piatkowski - Drake - 3.273 yards, 22 touchdowns, 10 interceptions
#8 - Jeff Mathews - Cornell - 3,196 yards, 18 touchdowns, 11 interceptions (9 games)
#9 - Jonathan Carkhuff - Davidson - 3,151 yards, 16 touchdowns, 15 interceptions
#10 - Thomas Wilson - Elon - 3,149 yards, 25 touchdowns, 10 interceptions
#11 - Brad Sorensen - Southern Utah - 3,139 yards, 23 touchdowns, 10 interceptions
#12 - Michael Colvin - Lehigh - 3,114 yards, 19 touchdowns, 16 interceptions

yes, you read that correctly. there are twelve 3,000-yard passers currently in the FCS. all 12 of them are White men.

Leading tacklers:

#1 - Matt Evans - New Hampshire - linebacker - 77 solo
#2 - Zak Browning - Southern Utah - linebacker - 69 (10 games) - he's a freshman!
#3 - Ian Sluss - Portland St - linebacker - 75 solo
#4 (t) Ross Shafrath - South Dakota St - linebacker - 73 solo
#7 - Justin Sexton - Sacred Heart - linebacker - 70 solo
#9 - Alex Grask - Valparaiso - safety - 68 solo
#10 - Roman Sandoval - Holy Cross - linebacker - 55 solo (9 games)
#14 - Jaycob Shoemaker - Portland St - linebacker - 58 solo (10 games)
#15 - Rock Williams - Western Carolina - linebacker - 52 solo (9 games)
#16 (t) - Tom Mannix - Holy Cross - safety - 63 solo
#19 - Paul Worrilow - Delaware - linebacker - 57 solo (10 games)
#20 - Tanner Burch - Gardner-Webb - linebacker - 51 solo (9 games)

according to conventional wisdom, how is the above list even possible?!?! :thumbsup:

I'm not sure if this has been discussed but Luke tasker is the son of Steve tasker and wants to try and play in the NFl as he is attending Don Beebes' speed camp this winter. He is a long shot but you never know.
