Manziel was my pick for the 78th Heisman trophy winner, but I certainly questioned if his being a freshman would affect his chances. He was consistent all season long. He is a legitimate dual-threat quarterback that helped him in his race for the Heisman. As a freshman, he displayed a great knowledge for the game and exceptional decision-making skills.
Johnny Manziel became the first freshman ever to win the Heisman trophy.
The statline is impressive. In 12 games, Johnny Football threw for 3,419 yards and 24 touchdowns. He threw only 8 interceptions. His rushing stats are just as impressive as he ran 184 times for an incredible 1,181 yards and 19 touchdowns. If any freshman was going to win the Heisman trophy it would've been this guy.
The scary thing about Manziel is that he could be in college football for quite a few more years. It will be interesting to see his production next year after receiving one of the highest honors in college sports. Will his production tail off or will he continue to demonstrate that he is one of the elite players in the nation? Could he win another Heisman Trophy? It's a lot of pressure placed on this young guy's shoulders. It should be fun to see how he handles the sky-high expectations next year.
I wish him the best because he is so easy to root for. He's humble and fun to watch. Congrats to Johnny Football.
