First Linebacker Ever Invited to Heisman's Party


The Heisman Trophy was just awarded to the 20 year-old sophomore QB from Texas A&M -- Johnny Football -- who stood on the sidelines last season.

He edged out Notre Dame's Manti Te'o -- who received the most voting points for a defensive player in the 78 year history of the Heisman Trophy.

HEISMANTI

BRING ON BAMA!

Will Manti Win Notre Dame's 8th Heisman?

In less than 12 hours from now -- Notre Dame fans all over the world will be tuning in to the HEISMAN TROPHY presentation -- with hopes that Manti Te'o will become the eighth Notre Dame All-American to win college football's most coveted prize.

The Heisman Trophy presentation begins at 8 PM ET on ESPN.

The odds are against this happening -- yet, after a football season that was not expected -- why not one more surprise!

WHAT THOUGH THE ODDS BE GREAT OR SMALL...

Here's what's certain -- the HEISMAN TROPHY will be better served in the hands of Manti Te'o.  (Illustration above from the Chicago Tribune's Joe Darrow)

The Notre Dame Football video staff produces an annual Senior Parents Video -- that I will admit, brings me to tears every time I watch it.  Here's the video that was produced for last night's "The Echoes" -- Notre Dame's Football Awards Show.
