The reason Reynolds was 'removed' was because a couple of weeks ago they started to just post what their experts chose, not the fans. And like that Reynolds was gone.

The fan voting still has him leading with 47%, but in reality, he never had a chance.

To me Henry is just another in the long line of productive Bama RBs. Not saying he's bad or anything but I'd put Cook, Elliott and Fournette over him.

Cook missed 1.5 games and still put up insane numbers.

And I don't understand why Reynolds gets slighted just because he plays for Navy.

I don't think it's so much that he plays for Navy as much as it is that he plays in a weird gimmick system.

How can you in good faith award the Heisman to a QB who was 46/84 for 964 yards, 6 TD's and a pick?

Dude is crazy fun to watch, but he's not a QB in the true sense of the position.

I don't think Henry is all that great as an individual back behind a merely decent line. Fortunately for him he plays behind Bama's line.

I'll take Mayfield, but pretty sure it's going to be Henry.

It's been a while since we had a Heisman race this close to the end of the season without a clear frontrunner. Really, you can make a good argument for any of Henry, McCaffrey, Mayfield, and Watson.

From the OP and the 5 people mentioned in it it should go to Cook, No doubt. The FSU RB

would not be surprised to see Henry win it though

Those QB's are not even as good as the last few ones. Running back time

Being in a gimmick system is irrelevant when Tebow won a Heisman.

You have got to be kidding me. You obviously just watched the first 5 LSU games this year because since the Alabama game, he has been below average, and it's been 4 weeks.

Henry is the most dominant RB in Alabama's history up to this point. He's breaking all the records he can, and yet you don't want to give it to him cause, 'well Bama just has a bunch of RB's'. :laugh:

The other one would have been when Ingram won it (Black Alabama RB), and barely behind him was Toby Gerhardt (White Standford RB).

Ironic that it could be the same this year.

1. McCaffrey
2. Watson
3. Mayfield
4. Elliott
5. Henry

What in your opinion has Henry done to be 5th? I'm a homer all the way, but it seems like the whole country is saying Henry is the best player in the country. Without him, we would have lost at least 4 games and now we are one game away from the playoffs AND he is breaking all the Alabama RB records.
