Ness Notes (Heisman Update / College Hoops Begin)
As I’ve been saying for weeks now, this year’s Heisman winner will be won by one of two QBs, Ohio State’s Troy Smith or Notre Dame’s Brady Quinn. Quinn has the much better numbers lately but it shouldn’t go unnoticed that the Irish haven’t exactly faced “Murderers Row.” Since Notre Dame was beaten badly by Michigan back on September 16 (47-21), Quinn has rebounded (he threw three INTs vs the Wolverines and lost a fumble that was returned for a TD) by leading Notre Dame to six straight wins, as the Irish have averaged 34.8 PPG.
