The throw that won the Heisman

Let’s get one thing straight: Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III won the Heisman Trophy last season because he was the best player in the nation. His rare combination of deadly accuracy with his arm, sublime decision making and unique maneuverability put him in a class of his own, ahead of guys like surefire No. 1 overall pick Andrew Luck out of Stanford and national champion running back Trent Richardson from Alabama.

But if you were pressed to choose one play, one singular moment in which Robert Griffin III “won” the Heisman, it would have to be the game-winning 34-yard touchdown pass to Terrance Williams in the waning seconds of Baylor’s 45-38 upset win over Oklahoma on Nov. 19.
