As the purveyors of click-bait that we are, before we announce our Heisman winner, we’d like to say a few things.
First, we were pleasantly surprised at the number of votes we received. this either means there’s more college football fans out there who are also Dubsists, or there’s a few guys out there who figured out how to get past our 1 vote per IP address limit. Either way we will take it; somebody out there gives a damn…it’s just a matter of degree.
Secondly, we were also a bit surprised at the fact the our finding turned out to be a s significantly different as they were from the actual voters from the Downtown Athletic Club. Yes, we know we are releasing our findings before the actual winner is announced. But since we know who the three finalists are, we can safely assume those were the top three vote getters. So, just by the fact that Baker Mayfield finished in our top three pretty much guarantees our list is very different from theirs after that point.
The Dubsism Heisman Top Ten
You’ll notice we had a fair amount of Write-in/Other votes. You’ll also notice that the write-ins collectively finished ahead of Florida State’s Dalvin Cook, who didn’t receive a single vote. Not one. We mention this because we got several angry e-mails from Seminole fans claiming our polls was flawed because Cook wasn’t being properly represented in their eyes. Stop and think about that. These Florida State mouth-breathers took the time to write e-mails telling us what assholes we were because somehow it’s our fault nobody voted for Cook WHEN THEY DIDN’T EVEN DO IT THEMSELVES!!!
Draw your own conclusions…ours is on record. Florida State is the “strip-mall” of American universities.
The other fun fact about Write-in/Other votes was the more-than-a-coincidence number of votes we got for North Dakota State quarterback Carson Wentz. We appreciate the fact that somebody decided to stuff the ballot box for their small-school guy, but we couldn’t help notice Wentz broke his weeks ago and hasn’t played since. We mention this because despite this, Wentz’ is a name you will hear again come NFL draft time.
You heard it here first.
