Iamaleava Heisman Trophy Win Could Make UT Football History
Believe it or not, Tennessee Volunteers football has never had a player win the Heisman Trophy. Five former stars in Knoxville cracked the top five including four runners-up in a given season.
The most recent of the bunch was Hall of Famer Peyton Manning, who finished second to Charles Woodson of the Michigan Wolverines in 1997, with Woodson becoming the first defensive player to take home the award, the biggest individual honor in college football.
Chances Nico Iamaleava Wins Heisman and Makes UT History?
Itâs been a rip-roaring start to the college football season for Iamaleava and the Vols, who have remained a playoff contender all season. Iamaleava has amassed over 1,000 passing yards and eight scores (to four interceptions), setting the stage for an SEC slate to remember in Knoxville.
With that in mind, Iamaleavaâs Heisman Trophy odds make him a long shot, but there is still plenty of football to be played.
