Bradford will be breaking school passing records. And he'll have the Sooners in the thick of the national title race.

In all probability, however, Bradford winning the Heisman is a long shot.

Sophomores don't win the award given to college football's best player, unless that player puts up mind-boggling statistics, which is what Florida quarterback Tim Tebow did last season.

Tebow accounted for 51 touchdowns, 29 passing and 22 rushing, the most in SEC single-season history.

That output, coupled with a weak field, allowed Tebow to become the first sophomore to win the Heisman.

The competition will be much stronger this year.

Three of the top vote getters in 2007 return: Tebow, Missouri quarterback Chase Daniel and West Virginia quarterback Pat White.
