Andrew Luck among Heisman Trophy finalists
Newton and James have been announced as finalists for the
Heisman Trophy and will be joined by Stanford's Andrew Luck and
Kellen Moore of Boise State for Saturday's announcement.
Newton overcame a pay-to-play scandal with a superb season on
the field, piling up nearly 4,000 combined yards and 48 touchdowns
in leading the top-ranked Tigers into the Jan. 10 national
championship game.
The dynamic James had more yards and touchdowns than anyone else
in FBS, helping the second-ranked Ducks into their first national
championship game.
