Dodd is a CBS guy who tends to talk up the SEC. The 'Shoe memorably failed to make his list of top college football venues a while back. This article says nice things about Ginn, but he couldn't resist taking a couple of shots at tOSU in poor attempts at humor, which I've marked in Bold. As for his list of 10, it's not bad, I'd just substitute Maroney for Palko.

The call went out to the NCAA this week because if we're going to do this, let's get it approved from on high. Is it possible, they were asked, to stage a match race between the two fastest players in college football?


We set the parameters:


  • No money from sponsors, so even Nike or Coke can get their grubby little hands on the promotion.
  • No money for participants. Only the greater glory of finding the fastest player in the game.
  • No profit. Any money from ticket sales or television goes to charity.

</TD><TD width=15></TD></TR><TR><TD width=150>Ohio State's Ted Ginn Jr. has wheels that can't be matched. (AP) </TD><TD width=15></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>Turns out that bylaws 12.1.1.4.3 and 12.5.1.1 allow such charitable events involving student-sprinters, er, athletes. Who knew? Can't believe some marketing maven hasn't thought of such an event. At the least it could be a kickoff (or runoff) to a Heisman campaign because any list of candidates this year starts with a stopwatch.

Ted Ginn Jr. meet Reggie Bush. Ginn, Ohio State's super freshman, might be the fastest player in uniform (NFL included). That might be a dig at Bush, no slouch himself, who finished fifth in Heisman voting as a sophomore.

Call it the Trojan Trot (in the Coliseum) or Olentangy Tango (in the Horseshoe) -- 100 yards, goal line to goal line.

This is not Man v. Beast nor Seabiscuit vs. War Admiral. It's bipedal all the way. Wow, a bylaw Ohio State can legally take advantage of. All we need is a field, a starter and a ticket taker.

In this corner, Bush, an All-American returner with 4.4 speed. In this corner, Ginn, another 4.4 guy, who has the potential of doing everything at Ohio State except getting the program off probation. He's the best young talent in the game who tied the NCAA return with four punt returns for touchdowns as a freshman. Once Jim Tressel realized the talent he had, Ginn was turned loose. The kid averaged 14.9 yards per touch and scored five touchdowns in the last four games.

It doesn't have to be Ginn and Bush. It could be Oklahoma's Adrian Peterson and Michigan's Michael Hart. The point is, their legs and moves symbolize how the game has evolved. For every Matt Leinart there needs to be a Bush who can run under those passes. For every Maurice Clarett there needs to be ... a better lawyer.

Just kidding. Ginn brought a dimension that hadn't been seen since, well, Bush came to USC the previous year. He's a three-tool player, able to catch, run and return. While neither player's stats will be gaudy, there's a reason why they're both used all over the field.

Speed kills. Peterson might start as the preseason favorite after a season in which he rushed for 1,925 yards and finished second in Heisman voting. Yes, he was incredibly strong for a 19-year-old, but it's his 4.4 speed that separated him from the rest.

Supposedly, Michigan knew that Texas' Vince Young is something less than an accurate passer. Young was still able to use his feet to be the singular difference in the Rose Bowl victory.

Texas A&M's Reggie McNeal whose feet might be better than his arm. USC returns five of its top six receivers. One of them, Steve Smith, caught three Leinart touchdown passes in the Orange Bowl.

There is a trend developing here. On your mark, get set ...



Top 10 Heisman candidates. Calm down. If you're guy isn't here, remember, it's only March. That's why we're putting them alphabetical order.

With this being the year of Oklahoma and Southern Cal, it's no surprise that each team has two players as favorites for this year’s Heisman Trophy.

Can Southern Cal’s steady quarterback win or will it be the flashy sophomore who does it all?

Will a freshman finally win for the first time in history or will it be his teammate, the first repeat winner since Ohio State’s Archie Griffin?

Class: Freshman
Ht: 6-2 Wt: 210
Why he will win: The old-guard voters will get over their freshman prejudice and realize A.D. (All Day, as his dad nicknamed him), is the best freshman runner since Herschel Walker. If he doesn't win it this year, he'll do it before he's through.
Why he won't win: Split vote. Peterson has a teammate (Jason White) who is equally deserving. The teammates could split the votes and allow one of the two USC candidates or Utah's Alex Smith to win it. -- Dennis Dodd </td> </tr> </table>

</img> </td> <td width="5"> </td> <td> School: Utah
Class: Junior
Ht: 6-4 Wt: 205
Why he will win: With the Oklahoma and USC pairs splitting votes, Alex Smith could emerge as the winner. It's hard to ignore 38 total touchdowns (28 passing, 10 rushing) with only four interceptions. No other person on this list means more to his team than Smith. Without him, Utah wouldn't be preparing for the Fiesta Bowl, they'd be looking at a matchup with 6-5 UCLA in the Las Vegas Bowl.
Why he won't win: He plays for Utah. Voters don't like to vote for people who rack up numbers in non-BCS conferences. If he was playing for Urban Meyer's new team, his name would already have been engraved on the trophy. -- J. Darin Darst </td> </tr> </table>

Class: Junior
Ht: 6-5 Wt: 220
Why he will win: In what is supposed to be the closest Heisman race ever (yawn), Leinart will take home the hardware. He's got the numbers and has put his team in position for another national championship, but the key will be the fact that Jason White and Adrian Peterson will split the Oklahoma vote. He's certainly deserving, though. He threw multiple touchdown passes in 10 games while never having a game where he threw more than a single pick.
Why he won't win: Clueless voters. Be it the perceived bias against the west coast or the silly argument that Reggie Bush has been USC's best player, ill-formed opinions are the only thing that should keep Leinart from winning the trophy. We already know there are biases against picking a freshman, so he's safe on the Adrian Peterson angle. -- Tony Mejia </td> </tr> </table>

Why he will win: Voters will realize it's hard to do four things well in football. Bush does it all: running, catching, returning and, yes, even passing. Bush was the nation's highest-rated prep running back a couple of years ago. He has not disappointed.
Why he won't win: Too many who think that he doesn't touch the ball enough. Bush is not a 40-carry guy but he is a potential three-touchdown guy. Nuff said. -- Dennis Dodd </td> </tr> </table>

Class: Senior
Ht: 6-2 Wt: 215
Why he will win: White didn't disappoint with the whole world waiting for him to fail. After throwing four interceptions in his final two games, many wondered if White deserved the 2003 Heisman. Not only does he deserve it, his numbers are actually better if you look at passing efficiency. This is the kind of performance that won Archie Griffin back-to-back statuettes.
Why he won't win: Voters are tired of him and want something else. Plus, he could split votes with teammate Adrian Peterson. Also, stiff competition from other quarterbacks Matt Leinart and Alex Smith. -- Dennis Dodd </td> </tr> </table>

Why he will win: Idle idol Ricky Williams, Texas' last Heisman winner, will flood the ballot box on his behalf in between his holistic medicine seminars.
Why he won't win: He had a fabulous senior season, rushing for over 100 yards in all but one game. Unfortunately, that one game was the 12-0 loss to Oklahoma. We would guess Sooners aren't some of Benson's favorite people. -- Tony Mejia </td> </tr> </table>

Why he will win: Except for a two-game stretch in the middle of the season, Edwards was easily the best wide receiver in the nation. He had huge performances in Michigan's biggest games of the season.

Why he will win: The heart and soul of the Cal offense. All the attention was focused on Aaron Rodgers and Geoff McArthur. But the Bears don't get shut out of the Rose Bowl with Arrington's tough running. He set the school single-season rushing record, including 261 yards against Southern Miss.

A race between Ginn and Bush? Only if the undercard is a three-way Tool-Off between Dodd, Mark May and Trev Alberts!

Seriously, Andy Geiger must have shit in this guy's cereal or something. Don't they make pills now that take care of Dodd's issues?

Maybe almost as much as when I laughed at Tyler Palko being on that list. Yes, Maroney seems like a much better choice, but then again this is Dodd. Doing the smart/correct/classy/good in any way thing just wouldn't be his style. :biggrin:

Why is he always raging on O-State? I just dont understand this! He could easily be a great writer with good insight but yet he childly makes attempts to become a (laughable) "bad boy" stytle writer that just doesnt "care". His failures at becoming a "rebel" is the most hilarious of it all. What a fvckin chump...
