[Chip Douglass]

The Tebow actually received the most first place votes, yet finished in third.

What does that have to do with getting the most 1st place votes?

Yeah, because Tebow is nothing but hype, with no talent whatsoever.

Bradford dominated the regions...I'm surprised the West voted for Bradford, becuase they usually vote for the most hyped player with the worst stats (Tebow).

Is that a fact, or did you just make that up?

And why did some random fan chosen by Nissan get a vote?

Did they go Big XII coach on him and leave him off the ballots?

All 3 guys deserved it, I wouldn't have argued if it had gone to Tebow or McCoy....I think McCoy was kinda a di** about the whole thing. Tebow actually seemed happy for Bradford, while McCoy kinda acted pissed. Tebow earned my respect for that...and McCoy certainly lost some. I lawled at Billy Sims screaming "BOOMER" as soon as the old dude said "Sam Bradford".
