Ever since 2013 when votes were cast before Tre ran for 300+ in SECCG, I thought they should not allow early votes until after Championship week. They said only 10% had voted already this year. Though I bet most of those votes went to Tua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigman334 56 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Tua and Murray are both great. Tua only issue is that contact throws him off a little. Id say a little soft. Id go murray 1 and tua 2nd..that last game left a mark. Haskins is good but not near those 2...majority of his passes during the season were screens and short passes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keesler 5,923 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Murray takes it, he deserves it. Tua's back another year with the same supporting cast, so his time may come later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Alabama remained undefeated, only will help him. I don’t think they will hold the two interceptions against him although I think it will be much closer. ESPN and Emmert will stuff the ballot box for Tagalokaloka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUsince72 11,084 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I don't watch bammer at all, outside the IB, so I can offer no opinion on Tua. However, I've seen a fair amount of OU & tOSU games and between Murray & Haskins, Murray is far & away more dynamic & fun to watch but Haskins IS tOSU Offense. I'd say Murray is the better player but Haskins is his team's clear MVP. Based on what I know about bammer, I'd guess Joe Schmo could QB them to a natty so I'd eliminate Tua just for that....well, and also I'd give bammer the SMU death penalty just for spite, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. So, question is simply.... Heisman = Best Player or Heisman = MVP That's the question. My pick? Murray. Dude was awesome!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically bammer has a defense and Tua didn't even have to be any good. Murray HAD to be outstanding to make sure OU outscored everyone and, like I said, Haskins WAS tOSU Offense. Oh well. It's bammer's world right now and everybody else is just taking up space. Looking forward to Army-Navy! But I'll probably mute it as I'm sure Gary will talk up Tua's Heisman bid for half the game.

I still think Kyler is the favorite. I kinda feel bad for Tua because I think he’s a good person and a better QB than Kyler, but if Kyler wins, I will find pleasure knowing that two weeks ago bama fans were already throwing out “what do the Auburn fans have left to brag about once Tua wins the Heisman.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it's not the "Best Player" because even one loss by a Heisman candidate and he is pretty much out of the race though Mayfield overcame that problem. And back in Cam's day some media wanted to put a "morality" clause or something in it to eliminate him. Mostly it means whatever any particular voter wants it to mean and has become sort of a popularity contest with tinge of MVP attached as long as that MVP translates into wins. As Hurts showed, either Tua or Hurts or maybe even Stidham could have QB'ed bama to an undefeated season...….which kinda takes the uniqueness off Tua in my view. So that leaves Murray.
