Heisman Winner RG3 Finishes Strong
Heisman Trophy winner, Robert Griffin III, finished up his season and more likely than not his NCAA career last night with a 67-56 win over Washington in the Alamo Bowl. As you can tell by the score it was an exciting game with little resistance shown by either defense. Griffin showed why he won the Heisman and why he'll likely be a top 5 pick in the NFL Draft. Doing it with both his arm and his legs, passing and rushing for a TD. He'll be remembered for a lot of things. The best football player Baylor has ever seen. Becoming Baylor's first Heisman winner. Setting the team record for wins in a season, with 10. He's a great all around athlete, breaking several Track and Field Texas State records while in High School. But the thing I'll remember him for the most, which may be weird, are the socks he wore to the Heisman Ceremony. They were without a doubt the coolest pair of socks I've ever seen. I'm a big Superman fan, so when he rolled up his pant leg to show these Superman socks, complete with cape, they instantly went to the top of my Christmas list. Unfortunately word didn't get to Santa in time and I'm still Superman Sock-less. Regardless of what color socks he'll be wearing next year, a lot of people think they'll be orange (for either the Browns or Dolphins), he's going to be a problem for the rest of the NFL.
