espn heisman watch list

Jeremiah Masoli and LaMichael James are now on the espn heisman watch list finally, getting a little respect with 2 and 1 votes respectively. Probably a little too late in the season but still good to know were getting some respect, and will definitely give them both a jump start for next years heisman race.

One could certainly argue that James has the best stats of the RBs:
James (Oregon): 131-918
Ingram (Alabama): 153-1004
Lewis (Pittsburgh): 185-1029
Spiller (Clemson): 113-574

Ingram has more receiving yards. I'm not sure why Spiller is even on there.

Spiller is on there for his overall game... Receiving, returns, the whole package.

Sure Spiller's stats aren't amazing but like wounded mentioned, he his special teams play and the fear factor he places in opposing teams is what makes him special.

Look at Masoli, his stats aren't that hot this season. But ability to completely fool defenses catches your eye. Hence why he's getting Heisman love.
