Since that's how every single ranking system for college football works? People talk about top 25's and top 10's, not being ranked 110. It makes it look like the site was made by someone who doesn't understand college football.

Might as well count Taysom. He'll get it this year

We had a guy that won it in the 90s as a player and a current coach that won it.

The chart just shows it in 0.5 increments. It shows us with 1 heisman winner.

Is that prophesying a Taysom Heisman this year?

Byron McNertney

I'm predicting that Tysom and Tanner both win one this year...

They need to change that - it's dishonest.

I can assure you, it's an honest mistake.

I'm sure it is.

That wasn't sarcastic, I'm sure it was! Someone clearly did a lot of work for this, I'm sure they want it accurate.

someone should paste across the top "Taysom is graduating in 2016". For texans.

Why is the "Fanbase" section flipped on its side? Horizontal bar charts are lame.

Vertical, horizontal, whatever, but be consistent.

This website is a decent start but there is so much more data in our favor...

Don't worry. It's a work in progress.

Is this your website? If so, please add an easteregg somewhere that pops up "Yewts Suck" if you click on the right pixel
