Joe Burrow: 2019 Heisman Trophy Winner
The senior quarterback was announced as the 2019 winner of the prestigious honor at the end of ESPN’s live broadcast of the Heisman ceremony from Manhattan’s PlayStation Theater.
Burrow shattered Heisman voting records, notching the highest percentage of first place votes, the highest percentage of possible points and appearing on the most ballots. His margin of victory (1,846 points) bettered the long-standing record set by O.J. Simpson in 1968.
“It’s an honor to stand on the same stage as all of these guys,” said an emotional Burrow after hearing his name called. “I’m so thankful to have played for two of the best programs in the country. I wouldn’t have traded my journey for anything.”
Burrow is the second LSU player to win the trophy and first since the late Billy Cannon did so in 1959. His Heisman triumph makes him the third-consecutive transfer player to win the award (and seventh overall), though he is the first to do so under the NCAA’s graduate transfer rule.
The 6-4, 216-pounder from Athens, Ohio, had an extraordinary season, passing for 4,715 yards and 48 touchdowns (tying a Heisman record), while adding another 289 yard and three scores on the ground. He had a remarkable completion percentage of 77.9 percent, the best in Heisman history. As the field general for the nation’s top offense, he led No. 1 LSU to a 13-0 record, the SEC title (its first since 2011), and its first berth in the College Football Playoff.
Ballots were emailed to 870 media personnel across the nation plus 56 Heisman winners and one fan ballot, for a total of 927 electors. The ballots were received and tabulated by the independent accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP. Burrow polled 2,608 points to capture the award over Jalen Hurts of Oklahoma (762 points), Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields (747 points) and Ohio State defensive end Chase Young (643 points). The point total is reached by a system of three points for a first place vote, two for a second and one for a third.
Burrow will be officially inducted into the Heisman family at the 85th annual Heisman Memorial Trophy Dinner Gala on Sunday evening, December 15, 2017, at the Marriott Marquis in New York.

Hawaii: The Bane of Army West Point in 2019.
HONOLULU (AP) — The State of Hawaii has virtually claimed responsibility for being rendered the bane of the now-disgraced United States Military Academy football team of West Point, N.Y.
Hawaii—established as the 50th state in the union, an influential province in the Pacific Rim, known for being the formative home of many successful American football players—through the Governor's Office, claimed responsibility for putting the "Black Knights" in "a hole they could never get out of," per a spokesman at an impromptu press conference outside Iolani Palace.
The University of Hawaii Rainbow Warrior football team of Mano'a initiated the two-step operation of drawing the highest of enmity from the Long Grey Line in a complete offensive showcase at the Aloha Stadium proving grounds on 30 November 2019. The Warriors routed Army to a man 52-31, effectively ending Army's fleeting attempt in vain to qualify for a Football Bowl Alliance-sanctioned college bowl game at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), the highest level of collegiate American football in the country.
Intelligence agents were notified via morbidly obese armchair warrior spies attached via eyesight to bleeding-edge devices called high definition (HD) televisions that the United States Naval Academy football team of Annapolis, Md. had completed the second and final step of the two-week cross-country operation at approximately 1315 HST at the Lincoln Financial Field battleground located in Philadelphia, Pa. The battleground is the designated home of the Philadelphia Eagles Football Club of the National Football League (NFL), the USA's professional American football competition. The full time score read: Navy 31, Army 7. Where the Black Knights were felled by the Warriors' aerial attack and the Fortuitous Farmer, Cole McDonald two weeks prior, a superior option attacked employed by the Naval Academy and Commodore Malcolm Perry ensured Army ended their ill-fated campaign on a two-match losing streak.
The Midshipmen, as they are referred to as, are managed by Kenneth Va'a Niumatalolo, a graduate of the University of Hawai'i in 1989. Niumatalolo is also a longstanding member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, or the LDS (Mormon) Church. The Church's designated university, the Brigham Young University of Provo, Utah, is Hawaii's designated opponent in the 2019 Social Finance, Inc. (SoFi) Hawai'i Bowl.
As for the Midshipmen, their final opponent to close out their productive 2019 campaign are the Wildcat football team of Kansas State University of Manhattan, Kan., in the 2019 AutoZone Liberty Bowl at the game's namesake stadium in Memphis, Tenn. The Wildcats team manager, Christopher Paul Klieman, was formerly the manager of the Bison football team of North Dakota State University in Fargo, N.D., an established multiple champion at the second-tier NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS).
A full report on the endlessly expansive amounts of a so-called odorless, tasteless, mindlessly senseless gas called "shade" inflicted on the regressing legacy of Army West Point Football against the State of Hawaii will be disclosed at an unspecified date. Preliminary reports have indicated that the date is listed as...never.

ISML 2019: Ishtar With A Massive Upset Of The Round
ISML 2019: Ishtar With A Massive Upset Of The Round
By Jo-Ryan Salazar
The Bedlam On Baltic Avenue
December 14, 2019
Ishtar delivered one of the biggest upsets as called by the Bedlam on Baltic Avenue on match day 3 of the 2019 International Saimoe League Eliminations Period and the 2019 ISML Fall Seasonal Semifinals. Ishtar defeated Hina Amano 10646-10100 to now become an odds-on favorite to win the diadem. She is prediection to win by at least 500 votes over Enterprise, who eased past Ristarte 10666-9264. Amano is forecasted to place third by at least 600 over Ristarte, and both matched are tipped to go over 21000 votes cast.
But Ishtar's equivalent in the Fate series is Rin Tosaka, and she delivered a similar scalp in routing Emilia 14855-9247. She will be a longshot against Mashiro Shiina, a 11488-11339 winner over Rikka Takanashi, but it is completely possible that a new Saimoe Diet led by Rin and Archer, who defeated Yuuta Togashi 10731-10157, is inaugurated by 2020.
The problem in Archer's case is that his next opponent is Sakuta Azusagawa, who defeated Riku Dola 10688-10213. Azusagawa is hoping to form a government with wife Mai Sakurajima, who defeated Sagiri Izumi 11771-11528. Sakurajima has a chance to avenge her setback to Saimoe Prime Minister favorite Violet Evergarden, who defeated Kurumi Tokisaki 11946-11520. Evergarden is using the platform of writing the story of the world in 2020 as a key reason to be elected as Rem Natsuki's successor.
On the flip side, the Bedlam is tipping Rimuru Tempest to win the election as Deputy Saimoe Prime Minister, after leveling Levi Ackerman 10731-10018. He will have a fair challenge in the semifinals, as Tomoya Okazaki, a longtime respected face in Saimoe circles and a candidate whose mandate will include putting family and community solidarity first, broke Touma Kamijou 11022-9592 in a rout.
A number of placement races in the Female and Male Division took place. Asuna Yuuki thumped Chino Kafuu 12817-9806, Yukino Yukinoshita rolled past Iroha Isshiki 11717-9696, Chtholly Nota Seniorious prevailed over Mio Akiyama 10960-10666, Kurisu Makise won the closest race of the round, a 10745-10717 thriller over Shouko Nishimiya, Schwi Dola won a 10669-10629 barnburner over Illyasviel von Einzbern, Shiro outlasted Taiga Aisaka 11251-10199, Kamui Kanna roared past Yui Yuigahama 11028-10335 and Takagi romped past Azusa Nakano 11658-10383. A six-way race took place, and Index L. Prohibitorum (76891), Megumin (71443) and Mitsuha Miyamizu (72012) advanced.
Over in the Male Division, Taki Tachibana defeated Kyon 10471-9170, Rintarou Okabe bulldozed Kazuma Satou 9911-9351, Willem Kmetsch punched Saitama 9671-9428, Shirou Emiya eased past Kiyotaka Ayanokouji 10120-9965, Kiritsugu Emiya whipped past Edward Elric 10253-9199, Lancer impaled Koyomi Araragi 10109-9227, Subaru Natsuki rolled past Takashi Natsume 9801-9286 and Nagisa Shiota shot past Yuzuru Otonashi 9608-9510. In the six-way race, Katsuki Bakugou (60345), Ryuuji Takasu (59590) and Eugeo (59408) advanced.
