Last night all of Sam Bradford's hard work finally paid off. Sam Bradford of Oklahoma University was selected along with Florida's Tim Tebow, and Texas quarterback Colt McCoy to be potential candidates for the prestigious Heisman trophy. For those of you that don't know what it is, the Heisman Trophy is an award given to the most outstanding player in collegiate football. The Heisman is not the only award given to the "best" college football player, however, it is the most prestigious.
Bradford a sophomore at Oklahoma University is the starting quarterback and although he may be young this guy can really put up some big numbers. Bradford holds an NCAA record for most passes as a freshman with 36 along with that this season alone he has thrown for over 4,000 yards this season. He has broken many different records all season leading the Sooners offense to an outstanding 702 points. He also had an incredible 48 touchdowns with only six interceptions, and if all that wasn't enough he also helped put up a record setting 60 plus points in five consecutive games. His performance this season has been outstanding to say the least and he had some tough competition against Florida's Tim Tebow who has already won the Heisman last year and Texas QB Colt McCoy. Bradford is the second sophomore to ever win a Heisman Trophy award the fist was Florida's Tim Tebow, and he is Oklahoma's fifth Heisman winner. As awesome as it is to win the Heisman, Bradford has the opportunity to make this season even better if he can pull off a national championship victory which is in three weeks.
