Alabama’s half back Derrick Henry who won the Heisman over the weekend had a great year mowing over defenses and rushing for 1986 yards. Henry beat out Stanford Cardinal running back Christian McCaffrey by more than 293 votes. We take a look at Henry and how he was voted winner of the award over McCaffrey and the year that he had.
Navy’s boat floats as they defeated Army on Saturday 21-17. This was a game the odds makers had Navy winning 31-22 and although Navy didn’t cover the spread they didn’t care they got in the win column for the important win. Army came back to take a brief lead 17-14 but not until Navy caught up.
The Texas Longhorns made themselves useful over the weekend when they picked up two offensive coordinators from Tulsa. Sterlin Gilbert has been hired as offensive coordinator with offensive line coach Matt Maddox. The Longhorns will retain their head coach Charlie Strong.
