It’s the most coveted individual award in all of American sports, the Heisman Trophy. The Heisman has been around since 1935 and is given annually to the most outstanding college football player in the country — more specifically in the Football Bowl Subdivision.
The Big Ten has a long history of guys winning the award, and that has a lot to do with what’s happened with Ohio State and its college football leading seven overall trophies (tied with Notre Dame and Oklahoma).
But where does the Big Ten rank against other conferences? With the recent run of success, you’d expect the SEC to be there, and clearly, there’s been some other great players taking home the bronze statue from other conferences over the course of college football history bliss.
Here’s a rank of the most Heisman Trophies won by each of the Power Five conferences thanks to a graphic from Fox College Football.
