RG3 Wins First Heisman Trophy for Baylor

Baylor Robert Griffin III, Superman, and won the Heisman Trophy when he was wearing socks to prove.

Who knows? Perhaps even helped outluck Andrew Luck.

Small house for the first Baylor player in college football to be the most famous trophy on Saturday night in pre-season favorite in RG3 beat Stanford, known as the quarterback.

Griffin took a deep breath right before his name was called. Braids on his face when he announced his long range bright smile will be included. Then the coaches, parents, sister and her boyfriend were hugs all around.

It was a stadium and there are a number of steps in a long time to put a laugh, to joke about Superman socks - full-back capes - he accepted the word was sent before continuing.

"Unbelievably this is not convincing," he said. "We are impressed with all the great things that happen when this is amazing. But without the hard work of the great things because it is not convincing."

Select the NFL draft, which is touted as more than luck № 1 in Griffin, the Heisman conversation, a team of talented and exciting players last season was on track.

Luck may be related to the project is still a very good day, but Griffin fourth in voting for a player no better than the end of the school, Waco, Texas will be directed to the Heisman - and was 48 years.

405 first place votes and 1,687 points from Griffin.

"Everyone connected with Baylor in the evening there is a reason to celebrate," he said.

Luck Heisman runner-up in consecutive seasons in 2006 and '07 and the first in Arkansas back Darren McFadden's work. For the fourth player to reach 247 first place votes and 1,407 points

Luck of the first to congratulate Griffin

"It was also awarded the Robert Griffin," Luck said. "It was very difficult to get upset."

Alabama running back Trent Richardson 138 first place votes and 978 points in the third. Wisconsin Montee Ball (348 points) and the other finalists in the fourth running back, cornerback LSU Tyranni Mathieu (327) was fifth.

Griffin speech was good as the game.

"I am the crowd, all I can say a lot easier, you can laugh," where the front that read "SilÉ™ socks off blue and red, after which he said after a press conference.

Griffin is a fan of superheroes and cartoon characters, and socks. Socks favorites: Sponge Bob.

However, many expected to win, but make no mistake, he said: "My heart is really heavy, really, all he was hitting on my chest will feel like .."

Highlights Griffin was great - 8 seconds long, the trans-field signature of this touchdown pass to beat Oklahoma on the left - and put the dizzying numbers, extends for 3,998 yards and 36 touchdown passes for the completion of 72 percent efficiency index 192.3.

More importantly, is the most important chapters in the history of the school of national prominence and Baylor (9-3) lifted. Rated at 15 months, the first time in 25 years, winning nine games and won the first time the Sooners was 4-0 in November.

The big winner of the first 15 games in November, after four seasons of the Big 12. The last three games? Oklahoma, Texas and Texas Tech.

It was the front runner from the moment of the season in January Lucky for a return to Stanford to become a millionaire instead of going to the NFL is very surprised. It has 3,170 feet, 35 touchdown passes, completed 70 percent with a rating of 167.5 percent and did not disappoint.

Griffin beat him using a similar formula: bright and exciting game against the competitors in the most conference in the shadows of the leading private school program oppressed.

Lucky win against UCLA blowout that made a sensational catch an early hand. Nice.

Baylor won the opening game 50-48 victory against TCU Griffin down from third to drive traffic to the main courtyard was 15. More is good.

6-foot-2, 220 pounds with the speed of Sprint - it was all American, a 400 meter hurdles - some early Heisman buzz, but three, lost four of Baylor in October sad. Griffin continued to accumulate numbers of video games, but the bears "is not enough to offset the permeable defense.

He finished with a blow, and when Baylor beat Oklahoma 45-38 on Nov. 19, shot at Heisman letters. Terrance Williams Griffin last seconds of the sensational 34 yards, game-winner, including 479 yards and four touchdowns against the Sooners had to do.

It has 320 yards passing and two TD passes and two touchdown to win 48-24 against Texas capping the season, a championship on Saturday, said his case. At the same time, luck, and Richardson was empty during the regular season.

"We like to go and write the script seemed perfect to win this award," said Griffin.

Baylor is the standard currently Heisman in 1963, quarterback Don son of a bitch of course the fourth place.

"We did great job resurrecting the program," Griffin said.

It is near Copper Cove Fort Hood, Texas, placed in the center of town is the son of two sergeants U. S. Army.

"My father, and he told me that it has everything," he said. "They love a home is one of a kind that I can be approved."

If something in a package that is a secondary school for Baylor to land Griffin was involved in the coup.

Dodgeball Houston coach Art and loyal to Griffin, but Griffin Dodgeball when Baylor hired away from work, and even a bowl game since 1994, the coach for the program is executed.

"Our offense is quarterback friendly, no doubt," said Bril. "We are looking at the quarterback position for Robert, we knew what was in full compliance."

It is the first in 2008 at age 18, started 11 games and three games into the 2009 season with a ton of knee ligament. He is as good as new and returned last year with the commitment and newly discovered love of football. He threw for 3501 yards and a record and its first bowl appearance since 1994, Baylor led 7-6.

This season, improved his passing, and still is a dangerous runner (644 yards and nine TDS) are available. Offer their products - in San Antonio Alamo Bowl against Washington on Dec. 29 - has a lot of games, however, that the professional perspective, put in doubt.

My 2011 Heisman Trophy ballot

Robert Griffin, 2011 Heisman Trophy winner for one reason and one reason only:

He is the greatest college football players.

Best stats? Maybe. The most valuable? Maybe.

It is nice to have a player with a 3.9-look team Heisman given. The award was "the best player on best team" in honor in recent years. I think that's fine, but I do not think it's necessary.

I voted for Tim Tebow in 2007, when Tebow had 23 rushing touchdown and 32 touchdown by the way, and the Gators were 9-3. Sometimes, the player has done regardless of the team, it's just too strange not to vote.

That's why I'm chosen for Griffin.

Electrical work, raises money dynamics in bombs, short flash club, dramatic escapes the pocket, in the late-game heroics and phase - RG3 had them all. He even has an NCAA record for passer efficiency rating of 192.31 with astronomical. How well does it work? The old single season record Colt Brennan was 186.0. Sam Bradford, NCAA career-record 175.6. Griffin threw touchdown and six 36 complaints, completed 72 percent of his passes and ran for nine TD.

I also like the fact that he was still a student graduated early and is himself, his family, his school and his community with class and dignity in all situations. This is no coordination policies, but it's part of what the Heisman is for me. He is the best deal in the big 12, do not shoot because he was out of the mouth and stand around and offer powerful chest (it skips the interview, when things gets tough), but because he is intelligent and thoughtful, and gives an insight into the aspects of himself and his game and his team, that you never knew existed. Thank you for Robert.

My second place vote is almost as easy. Lots of great candidates this year. I mean, a lot. I could have contained any of the nine guys on my ballot, and I feel good about one of them. But I chose Wisconsin running back Montee Ball, for one simple reason: all the touchdowns.

Barry Sanders' record of 39 TDs will never be touched, we spoke with in 1988. Now, touch the ball. He has 38 this season, and it's more than I ever thought that we would see again. He has always come with a bowl game and, of course, killing at least once, but in truth, if the NCAA would Ogu and five TDs in Sanders' Holiday Bowl, he would pull 44 may be considered, and we would not with this the debate.

Anyway, the ball is not only a big, fat plug goal line. The guy is the fourth largest in the country in a hurry, 135.3 yards per game. Average of 6.4 yards per carry it. How well does it work? Trent Richardson, Alabama averaged 6.0. Adrian Peterson, for crying out loud, only an average of 5.7 in the best years in the subdivision. Ball ran for 1759 yards and caught 20 passes for 255 yards and six TDS. He even threw a pass TD. Guys, this is performance, and if he does not catch rejoice Keith Nicole Mary and other next week in Ohio, the ball might be your winner, and is likely to play in the national championship.

The third place on my ballot was the hardest. I would say Stanford defender Andrew Luck, however, statistically, suggested he a serious plot towards the back half of the season. I would say that LSU defensive back Mathieu tyrant, but, statistically speaking, he disappeared (literally, thanks to one game suspension) for almost a month. I mean, running back Trent Richardson to Alabama, but in my opinion, I joined a few other running backs in the crime, Alabama, and I saw them do the same. (Do not get me wrong, Richardson, a unique animal-type runner in the field, but 1583 yards and 20 TDs Heisman has no fear of these).

I would say Houston Defender Case Keenum and Boise State defender Kelly Moore as a statistical miracle, and executives and the winners. But Keenum fell in the championship game defeat of Houston and Moore did not take his chance of winning the Boise State loss. Moreover, given the strength of their schedule this season, they have little room for error.

I have also called Oregon running back LaMichael James and defender Russell Wilson, Wisconsin.

But with a little more than an hour to vote, I felt best about Oklahoma State defender Brandon Weeden.

Weeden has all the elements (over .726 completion percentage, 34 touchdown 4328 feet, while his 12 complaints - six at the start of the season, five to the end -. Interfered) was statistically Weeden a week to week with a show of strength, with a shaky game against Texas and three landings, 476-meter, three-interception "flop" against Iowa.

Going in that loss to Cyclones Friday night, I decided Weeden was my favorite. Then all said that it was over. I wavered back and forth.

I finally Weeden included in my ballot, because it was unfair to punish the ball to the player Weeden is not a game-winning field goal. And while the loss dropped him from my seat one, I kept it to a vote, especially through his weekly series, and that it is easy again with a solid passing game (wind tunnel), which destroys and demoralizes helped by Bedlam rival Oklahoma. He backed the first quarter direct Ogu conference champion in 63 years, won 22 games in two seasons and a record legion of demons, to drive on this road.
