McCoy's big game starts Heisman push (AP)

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 21:04:02 +0000

Texas quarterback Colt McCoy needed a Heisman Trophy-type game. How about 304 yards passing, 175 yards rushing and five total touchdowns in a nationally televised win over a bitter rival? He needed a Heisman moment. How about a 65-yard touchdown run that evoked memories of Vince Young in Texas' national championship season of 2005?

Colt McCoy Says Goodbye Texas A&M Aggies; Hello Heisman

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 14:05:54 +0000

The Texas A&M Aggies played their "national championship" (of the Republic of Texas) yesterday. They played well. They fought valiantly. They left everything they had on the field. And...they lost. The Texas Longhorns narrowly escaped their matchup with Texas A&M, 49-39. Some will hold that against them, since the Aggies are now a mere 6-6. Those who do so either do not understand the dynamics of such a rivalry, the hostility of that environment, or they didn't see the game. Great teams find a way to win, even when an upset is in the air. Upset was in the air at Kyle Field last night. The air was thick with it. The crowd could taste every time they kissed in celebration of another Aggie score. There were plenty of Aggie scores for one primary reason: His name is Jerrod Johnson. The Aggie quarterback was simply brilliant. By halftime, Johnson had thrown for 199 yards and three touchdowns. He completed 13 of his 15 passes in the first half, too. He was improvising masterfully, ...

A lasting impression: Heisman contenders share national spotlight on critical weekend

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 05:54:34 +0000

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Maybe the right arm on John Heisman's bronze statuette isn't fending off an invisible defender. Maybe he's reaching out, hoping one of this year's biggest stars finally will grab the trophy in the season's final few days. Cue Texas quarterback Colt McCoy, who emerged from his team's 49-39 victory over Texas A&M as the Heisman Trophy favorite. His 479 yards total offense, including 175 on the ground (and a 65-yard TD run off a zone read), kept the No. 3 Longhorns in the national title hunt. "For my money, he's the best player in the country," UT offensive coordinator Greg Davis said afterward. But McCoy isn't the only player worthy of that description. Here's a look at five guys who in the next two days can join him as Heisman contenders: Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama: Every voter in America can check out the SEC's leading rusher in the Iron Bowl. His numbers will look even more impressive, given the reputation of the league's defenses. Today: ...

Does Anyone Want To Win The 2009 Heisman Trophy?

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 02:42:38 +0000

As we come to the end of the 2009 college football season, it seems that no one is talking about this year's Heisman Trophy race. Usually this late in the season there is one or two candidates that are the true front-runners for the award. That is not the case this season. Regardless, the award will be given on December 12, 2009. Tim Tebow started the season as the front runner with Sam Bradford and Colt McCoy rounding out the top three candidates. However, Sam Bradford's shoulder injury ended his season and collegiate career, and Tim Tebow has not been as productive this season as predicted. Colt McCoy remains a viable candidate, and others have caught the eyes of the college football world. Here is my list of the Top Five candidates for the 2009 Heisman Trophy. These candidates are presented in no particular order especially since the rivalry and conference championship games have yet to be played. Begin Slideshow

Texas looks to take next step toward BCS title bid

Fri, 27 Nov 2009 01:28:50 +0000

Sporting News staff reports No. 3 Texas looks to take another step toward the BCS title game as it visits Big 12 South rival Texas A&M. The Longhorns (11-0, 7-0) clinched the division with a 51-20 win over Kansas on Saturday. The Longhorns will face North Division champion Nebraska in the conference title game at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington on Dec. 5. With victories over Texas A&M (6-5, 3-4) and Nebraska, the Longhorns will gain a spot in the BCS championship game. The teams ranked ahead of them -- No. 1 Florida and No. 2 Alabama -meet for the SEC title Dec. 5. The Aggies have the 11th-worst pass defense in the nation, allowing 259.0 yards, and that looks like a favorable matchup for Texas QB Colt McCoy, the Heisman Trophy runner-up last season to Oklahoma's Sam Bradford. McCoy is the nation's most accurate passer with a 73.0 completion percentage. However, it's the Aggies who score first. Jeff ...

Westbrook's replacement is the real McCoy

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:46:23 +0000

With All-Pro running back Brian Westbrook sidelined because of lingering problems from two concussions in a span of four weeks, the Philadelphia Eagles are relying on rookie running back LeSean McCoy. McCoy has rushed for 452 yards (with a 4.3-yard average) and three touchdowns and caught 23 passes for 181 yards. He has been a key contributor for the Eagles (6-4), who are tied for second in the NFC East and play host to the last-pace Redskins (3-7) on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field. "I couldn't have predicted what happened" with Westbrook," Philadelphia Coach Andy Reid said. "I'm glad Brian is here to help this kid with the maturation process. Brian's been like a big brother to him. It's hard to put a price on that. "LeSean wants to be a good player. He's worked very hard at it. He has an opportunity now and we'll see how he does

Colt McCoy, Jordan Shipley Spearhead All-Big 12 Offense

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 03:58:23 +0000

The regular season is nearly over, and despite what looks like, overall, a down year for the Big 12, no one can deny the limitless quality depth and talent featured throughout the conference. I firmly believe a very good argument could be made that the Big 12 is not only the second best football conference in the country, but (hopefully) should feature a representative in the National Championship game as well. There are more than just a few guys responsible for that kind of elite success within a single football conference, and as the season winds down it is time to pay tribute to those most deserving. Consider this the second half (you should check out my defense edition, too)of my 'thank you' to the Big 12 for yet another marvelous football season. Here is the 2009, J.D.

Eagles RB LeSean McCoy: 'This line gave me some room to run'

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 07:35:43 +0000

Vinnie Iyer, Sporting News When the Eagles used a second-round pick to draft LeSean McCoy this April, they saw that with his combination of speed and receiving skills, he could be the ideal insurance policy for 30-year-old Brian Westbrook. Now that Westbrook is on the shelf after multiple concussions, McCoy is proving he can handle the rushing load in a big game. After Sunday's 24-21 Eagles comeback win over Chicago, Philadelphia's rookie running back talked to Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer and other reporters about rebounding from a key giveaway to score the winning touchdown: Q: What did it feel like running 10 yards into the end zone just minutes after you lost a fumble early in the fourth quarter? LeSean McCoy: It felt good. You kind of like to bounce back from that. You kind of try to forget about it. When we had a chance to score, the biggest thing was trying to erase (the fumble) from my mind. Q: Did you know you finished ...

AUSTIN, Texas — It's all about that ratty old piece of wood. Four years of highs and lows and expectations and realizations, and that thing looks prettier with each passing week. When Texas finds its way to the BCS national championship game, when the team of PlayStation numbers finally and officially becomes a championship team, it will look better than any bronze statue the Downtown Athletic Club can hand out. "We're all responsible for each other," said Texas quarterback Colt McCoy. "One guy can't do it alone." How fitting. On a night when McCoy set the NCAA record for most wins by a quarterback in a career, this reality has come into focus: It took McCoy 43 wins to get the one victory the Texas faithful have wanted for four years: The win that sent the Longhorns — as a team — to the Big 12 championship game.

Why Kellen Moore Belong In The Heisman Race

Sat, 21 Nov 2009 16:03:01 +0000

Mark Ingram, Toby Gerhart, C.J. Spiller, Case Keenum, Colt McCoy, and Tim Tebow are the players being considered for the ever-so-biased Heisman Trophy. All of these players have one of two qualities: quality stats or winning teams. But Kellen Moore has both. Moore is the leader of the number one ranked Boise Stats offense. They are averaging 44.6 points per game and also averaging 456 yards per game. These are very impressive team stats, but Moore also does it individually. Moore is leading the nation in passer efficiency and in touchdowns as well. One of Moore's most impressive stats is his remarkable 33 touchdowns to three interceptions ratio, which also puts him tops in the nation. So why is a quarterback who is putting up these kinds of numbers on an undefeated team not getting the national recognition he deserves? Maybe the fact that he is sophomore? Well that did not stop Tim Tebow. Maybe because he is on Boise State? Then why is Case Keenum being considered? Maybe because he ...
