For a large chunk of the season, Young was expected to win the trophy, and it became a done deal tonight. There’s no doubt at all that he deserves it.
Young put together one of the greatest seasons in college football history, and he now has the Heisman.

Not only did Young win the Heisman, but the Alabama quarterback is so unbelievably easy to cheer for. He comes off as such an incredibly humble and down to Earth guy.
Those are always the kinds of people you want to see succeed.

Now, Young and the Crimson Tide have to play Cincinnati in the opening round of the College Football Playoff.
He might have the Heisman, but his work is far from over.
BRYCE YOUNG IS UNSTOPPABLE.

Tune in December 31 to catch both CFP semi-final games, and props to Young for carving out his place in college football history.
