Agreed.
I'm sorry that John Beck, Quarterback at BYU, wasn't at least mentioned (an oversite over the past couple of years on the part of BYU's Sports Information Department) due to lack of publicity -- which is a big part of the Heisman race.
He actually passed for more yards than Troy in 1.5 less games, had the same number of TD tosses and only one more INT. He's a remarkable athlete.
Of course he didn't lead his team to a perfect season, and the schedule they played probably wasn't as hard, but I'm still surprised at no mention at all.
And that's certainly not to take anything away from Smith and Ohio State.
