Tebow wins Heisman

Many historical Heisman precedents crumbled when sophomore Tim Tebow won the Heisman Trophy Saturday Night. T2 gathered over half the first place votes, and has that lovely trophy to add to his unanimous First Team All-American QB spot over at Fantasy College Blitz.

Likewise, Tebow’s new trophy only adds to the list of firsts accomplished this season the two largest being:

• First underclassmen to win (I think Herschel Walker was runner-up as a freshman in 1981).
• First Major College player to throw for 20 TDs and run for 20 TDs in the same season.
• Superman wore Tim Tebow pajamas

Here is how the voting ended (thanks, USA Today):
