Bush runs off with Heisman Trophy By RALPH D. RUSSO, AP Sports Writer Yahoo Sports December 10, 2005 NEW YORK (AP) -- Reggie Bush left the competition far, far behind -- as usual. Southern California's sensational junior tailback won the Heisman Trophy as college football's best player in a landslide Saturday night over Texas quarterback Vince Young and USC quarterback Matt Leinart, last year's winner. Flashing uncanny acceleration and ability to change direction, Bush has conjured up memories of Gale Sayers, drawn comparisons to Marshall Faulk, Barry Sanders and Tony Dorsett, and is the favorite to be the No. 1 pick in April's NFL draft. "Oh man, this is amazing," Bush said, a row of former winners lining the stage behind him. "It's truly an honor to be elected to this fraternity. I've been in college for three years and it's the first time I've been invited into a fraternity." Bush received 2,541 points to finish 933 points ahead of Young, with Leinart a distant third. The 784 first-place votes received by Bush was the second-most in Heisman history, topped only by another famous USC player -- O.J. Simpson, who had 855 in 1968. Bush was first in all six regions and appeared on 99 percent of the ballots, also a Heisman record. Bush and Leinart will be the first Heisman winners to play in a college game together when USC goes for a third straight national title against Texas in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 4. continues ........... |

I haven't seen him play at all, but based on his reputation, he seems to be the second-coming of Walter Payton. Now if he can actually live up to that reputation, that's one thing. He's great at the college level, but I'm not sure if he'll be the same player on an NFL level. |

I only saw part of one game but I want to try to watch this as it has the top 3 Heisman vote getters and it should be a big offensive scoring game. ******************************** Bush and Leinart will be the first Heisman winners to play in a college game together when USC goes for a third straight national title against Texas in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 4. |
