The finalists for the 2020 Heisman Trophy were announced on Christmas Day, but unfortunately Notre Dame’s Ian Book did not make the cut.
Not that it’s really a surprise to anyone, but Book finished ninth in the voting nationally.
Notre Dame will face a pair of Heisman finalists in the College Football Playoff as Alabama quarterback Mac Jones and wide receiver DeVonta Smith both made the cut.
Joining them are Clemson star quarterback Trevor Lawrence as well as Florida signal caller Kyle Trask.
Notre Dame has not had a Heisman Trophy finalist since Manti Te’o finished second for the award to Johnny Manziel in 2012.
