no... Manning was better in college... Woodson was good, but the very next year Champ Bailey was a dual threat player and was better in EVERY way and didnt do as good in the Heisman. Manning should have won, ESPN was worried about the Heisman being a joke and had the Rose Bowl that year and talked up Woodson over and over the last few weeks never thinking he would actually win but oops, he did.

There is NO way Woodson was a better player that year. Manning was the best player, in the best conference and as I said, if you want to give it to a dual threat defensive player, then Bailey should have had more votes the next year, he had a LOT better year than that sham Woodson. Its just stupid that the one time a defensive player won it was that one single year.

i've never heard one member of the media kiss his ass

not during this season at least

his ass was kissed as much as every other #1 incoming freshmen has been in the past

Jaybee thank you for responding to that in a professional manner and I'm being serious. I respect your opinion and "I" never saw Manning's games that year all I focused on was each and every down where Woodson dominated in one on one coverage against the conferences best receivers, especially Boston of the fuckeyes. That's why Michigan was undefeated that year because it was Woodson eliminating one receiver by himself and then we play 10 on "9" per say because I don't count the quarterback in that type of scenario. Woodson was a hell of athlete too. Awesome punt returner and even showed up as a great receiver in the BIG games most importantly. OSU and Rose Bowl Washington State (against a great college qb in Ryan Leaf). With interceptions in both of those games. And yea it is "Michigan University" so he did get his ass kissed, but I can't believe you'd say that it was sooooooo out of whack for him to have it.

you can't double team his WILL.

^^^^ Agreed. Woodson's Heisman also had a lot to do with him going to Michigan and the success of their team. Bailey played for Georgia when they pretty much were just an average team. Maybe if Georgia had been in the national title hunt, Bailey would have gotten more love, but Woodson benefited from that fact that he went to the media beloved Michigan.

sure Michigan was a good team, and Woodson was a good player, but was he better than Deion? Reggie White? LT? etc? No. A defensive player never won it before or since, they just dont impact enough plays typically, especially compared to a player who touches the ball EVERY play... I could see MAYBE in a year where for some reason there just wasnt an offensive player who did anything at all, but that wasnt the case. Manning left college as probably the best college QB ever at least statistically (since passed by Wuerffel, Rivers etc) and should have easily won the Heisman.

Woodson just played really good in 1 or 2 big games, and made some pretty plays, but as far as impacting the entire season I will NEVER believe he had a bigger impact than the best QB in the country in the best conference

Completion % = 60.37
Yards = 3819
INTs = 11
TDs = 37

and that was in a VERY conservative offense, not talking Colt Brennan type shit
