How did Detmer win the Heisman in 1990?

Klingler stayed in games late.

11 of those TD passes came against Eastern Washington, where they 84-21, but

I was specifically thinking of that game.

BYU beating Miami and ranked higher

Yup, came here to say this - one word, "Miami" But also the #4 overall ranking,

Detmer got more votes

Ty beat #1 Miami.

Which is kind of crazy by the time the season ended. Houston finished #10.

The Heisman was awarded before the Hawaii and TAMU games.

Sep 16, 5:51pm

Yes, I know. Just interesting where they ended up.

Not just that BYU beat Miami but Detmers performance in that game

402 yards. 3 TDs and a two point conversion. What a game. Still the greatest game I've ever been to.

I believe this post is correct. I believe it was the most satisfyingly game I

Being at that game was fantastic and probably the best I felt after a win ever.

It was a way to honor BYU for a body of work over many years imo

Byu was 10-1 when the heisman was awarded

Sid Vicious

Yep. That Hawaii slaughter luckily hadn't quite happened yet. Detmer accepted the honor in a lei, right?

And ranked #4

Detmer started on the preseason watch list based on how he finished the year

Sophomore year was incredible

90%+ of the reason is the Miami game. Also, BYU was ranked 4th when he won it

Indy Coug

Sep 16, 1:18pm

Wasn't that game mere hours after he won the Heisman?

Peter Venkman

Sep 16, 5:27pm

Yes

Indy Coug

Sep 16, 7:23pm

Just so we're clear, DK didn't even finish top 3. In fact he wasn't even 2nd QB

rcbyufan

Sep 16, 1:34pm

Based on a quick look at the stats, that was surprising to me

Sep 16, 2:06pm

It was a more idealistic age in terms of fair play. Many saw his stats as unfairly inflated. And they were.

SinkingQuffa

Sep 16, 8:01pm

BYU was twice ranked #4 that year.

Sep 16, 1:35pm

Thanks for the answers!

Sep 16, 2:07pm

Ah, the good 'ol days when offenses weren't dumbed down like they are today.

TrueBlue67

Sep 16, 2:38pm

Two of those losses came AFTER he won.

Robert Baratheon

Sep 16, 3:11pm

Because BYU beat no. 1 Miami on national television, and Detmer played stellar.

nitestal

Sep 16, 3:50pm

He really threw a lot of interceptions, when you look at that stat

CougMAGA

Sep 16, 4:32pm

12 of Ty’s interceptions came in the game against Hawaii right after he was awarded

Klinger ran the "Run n Shoot" offense, which was viewed as gimmicky. He was viewed as a system product. Fair or not.

Sep 16, 5:46pm

This probably had a bearing as well. Wouldn't today, but did then. I kinda

Heisman was awarded on the day of the 2nd loss. 3rd loss came in the bowl.

BYU was 10-1 and ranked 3rd & 4th when he won...
