Sam Bradford getting the Heisman over Tebow was robbery and the title game proved it. Tebow had 3 heisman worthy years, if anything... he didnt win more because he was being compared to himself. It wouldnt have been horribly shocking if Tebow would have won 3 heisman trophies. I think when people cast their vote they took that into consideration. Tebow had the most 1st place votes in 2008. 2009's Heisman was decided on the outcome of 1 game vs Alabama
Archie had a better year after his 1st trophy. Even though Tebow had a Heisman worthy 2nd-3rd year, they always compared it to the first season and not the other players. Votes expected Tebow to duplicate 2007 which was just an unrealistic expectation.
Side note, Tim Tebow almost had more rushing TDs in a single season than Archie had in his entire career.
to put it in perspective.......... Archie had 26 total career rushing TDs. Tim Tebow had 57 rushing to go along with his 88 passing.
