(Note: For people like Ron Burgandy, the teams are listed in order of predicted finish, the only time a conference champion is listed is when there is a split conference and a championship game. Otherwise the team at the top is the conference champion. And Yes, there are more teams in the non-BCS conferences, but don't pretend for a second that you or I care about them.)

Heisman Finalists:
Graham Harrell -- Texas Tech
Chase Daniel -- Missouri (winner)
Chris Wells -- Ohio State
Pat White -- WVU
Knowshon Moreno --Georgia
So yeah, I am a homer and think (hope) Ohio State can knock USC off and have another shot at a mythical national title. Since these predictions will probably be wildly off the mark feel free to make as much fun as possible of the picks when Northwestern wins the Big 10 and Tim Tebow passes for 3,000 yards, rushes for 2,000 yards and performs 6 miracles to equal Archie Griffin* in the Heisman department.

Harrell over Crabtree, and no Tebow?
Interesting picks for the Heisman finalists.
You'd think they'd have to have Tebow there just because - hell Jason White was there the year after he won it.
Unless you think Harvin will steal some of Tebow's thunder. Which I can see happening with Crabtree and Harrell also.
Yeah Harrell over Crabtree.
Crabtree is just a receiver, every ball he touches gets to him out of Harrell's hand. If he starts return kicks and punts this year and does well he could be ahead of Harrell.
Harvin could steal some of Tebow's votes but I just don't see Tebow having a good of season as he did last year (statistically speaking)just because Florida should have a couple other players to run the ball effectively this year.
I think Tebow would have to have an absolutely monster year to win a second Heisman by the time he is a junior, if he stays for year 4 and leads Florida to a title he probably joins GriffIn.
Bold predictions there man. I would hope Florida would end up a little higher at the end of the year, but who knows with our weak secondary. Georgia should be good, but there will be a najor upset somewhere along the lines. I also think Wake Forest will finish a little higher too. This is the first post I've seen at your site, decent stuff bro.
