Didn't root against Leinart
One of the most burning questions in college football has been answered, as USC Trojan Reggie Bush won the Heisman Trophy just hours ago.
I wonder if some of my fellow Ohio State fans were rooting against last year's winner, USC quarterback Matt Leinart, wanting to see former Buckeye Archie Griffin remain the only two-time winner.
If so, I think that's poor sportsmanship. It reminds me of when members of the 1972 Miami Dolphins -- the last NFL team to go undefeated -- break out the champagne after a previously-undefeated team gets its first loss. That's just weak.
