Was Ohio State QB C.J. Stoud slighted by his Heisman vote placement?

Did C.J. deserve to finish third?

First, off I want to make it clear that the voters got the winner correct. USC’s [autotag]Caleb Williams[/autotag] was the best, most exciting player in all of college football this season. No issues with that at all but at first glance, it was where Ohio State’s [autotag]C.J. Stroud[/autotag] finished that made me think.

Which led to me to dive a bit deeper to see if the voters got the positioning of Stroud wrong. The junior finished third, behind Williams and TCU’s [autotag]Max Duggan[/autotag]. Let’s look at the stats and see if the voters got this one correct between Stroud and Duggan.

Final 2022 Heisman Trophy voting results

Bijan Robinson finished ninth place in the Heisman voting.

The Heisman Trophy was awarded to USC’s Caleb Williams on Saturday night.

The Trojan’s quarterback completed the best season in the country following his offseason transfer from Oklahoma. Williams threw for 4,075 yards and 37 touchdowns, along with adding 372 yards and 10 more touchdowns on the ground.

William’s won the award in a landslide over TCU’s Max Duggan and Ohio State’s C.J. Stroud.

Eight of the last 10 Heisman winners played the quarterback position. Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith in 2020 was the last non-quarterback to take home the award.

Texas star running back Bijan Robinson finished No. 9 in the Heisman voting after an excellent junior season in Austin. Robinson totaled over 1,800 yards and 20 touchdowns on the season. He is the first Longhorn since D’Onta Foreman 2016 to finish inside the top 10 of the Heisman vote-getters.

The college football season provided many exceptional performances all over the nation. Here is an entire look at the 2022 Heisman Trophy results.

Final 2022 Heisman Trophy voting, points results

Where did Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett and other CFB stars finish in the Heisman voting?

Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Stetson Bennett finished fourth in the 2022 Heisman Trophy voting. Bennett, a former walk-on, helped Georgia win a national championship last season and is a big reason why Georgia won the 2022 SEC championship.

Bennett did not have the most impressive stats of the Heisman finalists, but he is the only finalist with a team that remains undefeated. Bennett will face Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud, who finished third in the voting, in a few weeks in the College Football Playoff.

Here’s the final voting tally, which includes the total points each player received, for the Heisman Trophy:
